Has anyone had any experience selling iris stems commercially? I gave some
Japanese stems to a commercial flower seller who cast serious aspersions on
their commercial viability. Said they didn't meet commercial standards,
flower didn't last long enough, didn't stay well in the fridge, etc. I know
my tall beardeds would receive the same evaluation but I might try the
Siberians.
