Welcome to the Species Group of the British Iris Society (BIS).

We started as a study group of members of BIS who were interested in Iris species rather than the cultivars of bearded Irises, which are ably catered for by the main Society.

The Group has a long and illustrious history; most of the famous names in the world of Irises and other ‘bulbous’ plants have at one time or another been members. The original intention was for exchange of information about Iris between members. This is still the case today as can be seen from recent publications of bulletins and newsletters

 
Benefits of membership.

Regular, bi-annual newsletters and a
substantial bulletin published, generally,
annually.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Group has always been fairly informal and friendly and pleased to answer any queries regarding species irises.

We look forward to seeing you at one of the advertised events.
