This list only includes seed collected in 2022. We do have lots of interesting older seeds which will still be viable. It would be good to pass these on to anyone interested in growing irises. Please enquire if you are searching for something special.
The GBI seed scheme has always enjoyed an international element. With the changes to the seed import regulations in many countries, including the UK, this is naturally having a negative effect and the scheme may no longer be viable in future years.
