Welcome to Monterey Bay Iris
We Welcome You to Join Us in the World of Iris
We meet the third Friday of every Month except July and December. Visitors are always welcome. Our meetings are held at the Native Son’s Hall, 239 High Street, Santa Cruz, California, at 7:30 P.M.
At each meeting we have a program that corresponds with the season. For instance, in February we discuss fertilization and in April we present how to prepare and stage iris for our annual Iris Show. Slide presentations cover the most beautiful must have varieties.
We have a picnic in July and a dinner in December for members.
You can also enjoy the joys of iris in bloom by coming to our Annual Iris show at the Capitola Mall each Spring in either late April or early May.
You can purchase our iris at our three sales. We sell iris at the Smart Garden Faire in Scotts Valley every June, at Rio Del Mar Shopping Center the first Saturday in August and at the Cabrillo Farmer’s Market, the second Saturday in August.
