Carol Warner has a catalog and advertises under Draycott Gardens. The address
is: Draycott Gardens
16815 Falls Road
Upperco, MD 21155
Cost is $100. Carol ONLY sells beardless irises mostly JIs and SIBs. She does
list a few species. You can't go wrong ordering from Carol. I'll go as far to
say that "She's the Best!" and I don't think that I'll find anyone to disagree
with me.
Since everyone else is talking about ordering irises from different sources I'll
tell you about a problem I'm having. Nine months ago I placed a $120.00 order
with with All Seasons Iris Gardens in Madera, CA. This used to be Dr. John
Weiler's garden and is now owned by Ray Bearden. When I didn't receive my
irises by August I called and Ray told me my order had been "misplaced", but
that I could expect- my irises to arrive the next week. One month passes - no
irises! Another call and a big apology and I'm told the same thing. Multiply
that by two more times and guess what - no irises or refund as of today. Even a
letter to Dr Weiler last fall went unanswered. I just finished writing and
requesting a refund. You better believe that this is one catalog that is going
to be pitched this year!
