Michigan Bulb is a small, mail order plant supplier. They are noted for their modest prices. One caveat is that the size of their stock is small so whatever comes from them is a kind of investment in the future. Nonetheless, if you are a patient gardener, this supplier has some interesting plants to nurture.
Here is a photo of 'First Lady' double Siberian iris:

Use this coneflower to add a dash of magenta to your garden. Because it is magenta, pair it with
white coneflower and then complement it with a red or blue companion depending on your color scheme. Recall that magenta can be overrwhelming as it is red and blue competing for dominance.
A third offered item is
yellow Dicentra or bleeding hearts
"NEW! Add months of color to your garden with this uniquely colored dicentra! Its fern-like, blue-gray foliage becomes bluer when planted in full sun to part shade. And the foliage creates the perfect backdrop for the long-blooming, sulphur-colored, heart-shaped pendant flowers.

Should you decide to order these items, remember that the size of the plants sent will be small. However, you need only one to start an entire colony with patience. These can be divided and clumps moved to other areas and shared with other gardeners.
