I didn't realize many common backyard flowers/plants were so valuable!

For instance: Irises

For my mother, I posted "free" Iris rhizomes / roots on our local freecycle board. They were snatched up instantly. Some woman even drove 50 miles to get some.

Then I realized that on EBAY, people are selling just one rhizome for $6-$8! EACH!! Are people smoking these things?? Is it the new "club drug" ?? LOL

WOW, my mom's backyard is like an oilfield. Full of poppies, irises, tiger lillies, daylillies, etc etc. Apparently people buy dried poppy pods/stems for near $1 a piece, for decoration, etc. man-o-man Im in the wrong business!! :)
