Hey, I guess that is the free enterprise system working its best! Whatever
price the market will bear... though it seems a little heavy price point for
that particular iris. As you point out the foliage is quite interesting but
the bloom is quite unremarkable. I grow it primarily for the foliage aspect.
You are in somewhere in Quebec, Canada right? Send me your postal mailing
address via private e-mail and I can possibly send you a piece of it if you
would still like to have it.
