In my quest for heritage irises without all the frilly bits I went down quite a few rabbit holes but none deeper than the bottomless oubliette of dwarf irises. I have discovered that many dwarfs are not only less frilly but also considerably cheaper. I found I can get two dwarfs for the same price as the tall heritage varieties I had been looking for plus as they take up less room I can fit more in. I also stumbled across another vendor near me but luckily she doesn't open for orders until December so I can fall in love with, and then lose interest in, dozens of varieties before ordering so I don't get too carried away and want them all.
