Rhizomes

Canalillies

Before I forget, the rhizome is a low maintenance plant, from my experience. The top and bottom picture is Canalillies. One elderly couple gave me Irises. My elderly neighbor and my mother have given me Canalillies.
While Irises bloom in April around here, Canalillies bloom in June.
Irises grow between 2 and 3 feet tall. Canalillies grow 6 feet tall and provide shade during the heat.
These plants die back in late fall. Once summer arrive and they are blooming I will post some more pictures.
