Are they even allowed to travel unaccompanied by a more adult rhizome?

Multiple juveniles do travel well together. I have never had experience with any rhizomes traveling alone. That sounds rather abusive to me.

I'm guessing around Salem, Oregon because that's where Sisters Iris is located.

The original sale is at Al's Garden Center in Woodburn, Oregon, between Salem and Portland.
I'd love to be there in person, but it's a little too far from the center of Texas, where I live. Whistling
Just three more days until the list is posted!

Does it cost anything to go to the original sale? It's just one mountain pass away from me as the crow flies.

Oh my! I don't know if I would be allowed to go this year (all those other orders already placed & delivered), I feel like I might have no self restraint. I really want to now...it would be a long drive for me with possible my kids too. I have to think about it. Thanks Smiling
