British Iris Society Seed Scheme 2019 – 2020 Seed Distribution Officer: Christine Jarvis 3 Millbrook Close, Blewbury, Didcot, Oxon, OX11 9QL [email protected] 01235 851896 Thank you to all the seed donors who have provided the seed for this BIS Seed Scheme. 1 Members of the British Iris Society may apply for up to 40 packets of seeds. 2 The cost of seeds is £5 for up to 10 packets and £5 for each additional 10 packets (maximum £20). This cost is inclusive of postage and packing. 3 Payment for seed may be made by cheque (in Sterling) payable to the British Iris Society and enclosed with order or online using the PayPal account. 4 Orders should be sent to Christine Jarvis at the above address. An order form can be found at the back of this seed list. 5 A fair division of seeds will be made as soon as possible in January 2020. Requests will be dealt with in the order in which they were received. 6 Please order by number and retain this seed list for reference as seed will only be identified by the number on the packet. 7 Please include a sufficient number of substitutes as some seed is in short supply. 8 No responsibility can be accepted for the results as seed is obtained from many sources and it is not always possible to check the accuracy of naming. 9 Much of the seed on the list is open pollinated so it cannot be guaranteed to be true to name. Where seed has been collected from a named cultivar, the seedlings are unlikely to be identical to the parent. Where an 'x' appears before the cultivar name only the pod parent is known. The abbreviations 'dip' and ‘tet’ stand for diploid and tetraploid. 10 If you are ordering seeds from outside the UK, please check and comply with your country’s regulations covering seed importation to make sure than any request is not on your country’s list of banned imports. 11 Residual seed donated to the 2018 scheme is also included in this list and is marked as (2018). 1 THE GENUS IRIS 1.
