Winter 2011-2012: Rainfall has been sparse so far
5.35" since October 1...(including the 1.7" on Jan 21-23
and a trace that fell Feb 7 and 1.0" that fell Feb 13
and
the 0.45" that fell Feb 15.)
National Weather Service blames La Nina'
- colder than
normal sea surface temps in the equatorial Pacific Ocean.
(As of mid February...La Nina' is "approaching normal", meaning
Sea Surface Temps are beginning to rise in the equatorial Pacific.)

Near normal rainfall is expected

California's Central Valley, in Merced.
His Iris Garden is a California State licensed
and inspected Iris Nursery (License # C-0911).
We've shipped tall bearded iris plants

of the country and the irises thrive.
YES: we do sell and ship irises to customers in
Japan, Canada and European Union Countries.

BEGINS AFTER JULY 4.
(This is because
most irises are dormant in summer

the best time to dig and transplant them.)
