KCIS Bearded and Beardless Iris Show
Saturday, May 17, 2008
10:00 AM to 5:00 PM
Join us for the KCIS Iris Show at Crossroads
Bellevue in Bellevue, WA. This will be an AIS accredited
judged event open to the public from 12:00pm to 5:00pm. This is
great time to view a number of irises all at once. Bearded irises
are the main feature, with a splash or two of Beardless varieties,
such as Japanese, Siberian and Pacific Coast Native mixed in. Bring
a pad and paper so you can write down the iris you want to look for
at the Sales in August and September. There are also many KCIS
members available to answer any questions about the joy and care of
iris! Come join the fun!!
Directions to Crossroads Bellevue
NE 8th & 156th Ave. NE

KCIS Bearded
Iris Sale
Saturday, August 16, 2008
10:00 AM to 5:00 PM This is where you can look to find some of those
wondrous beard irises you saw at the KCIS Show! The sale is located
Crossroads Bellevue in Bellevue, WA. Mark your calendar now and be
prepared to shop early for the best selection. There are often unusual,
hard to find or newer introductions available at prices hard to be
believed. Freshly dug rhizomes like these will re-establish themselves
quickly!
