    I'd say scam, I've gone to the site through the link on hot deals and gone to the official site, you can see the triangle on the hot deals which says it Isn't safe and the padlock on the official site.

    Well, I don't know about this particular advert being a scam, but I have bought from Iris of Sissinghurst before and found that their service was more than good. I had ordered one named Bearded Iris from them but due to a poor year growing it wasn't in stock but Sue e-mailed me and gave me several alternatives. Their stock is quite good but, like most UK Iris Growers, not as big as Cayeux in France but, having said that, they also grow a lot of new named Bearded Iris grown in Kent so adding to their stock and named varieties of Bearded Iris. It's a bit late to buy Bearded Iris rhizomes and plant them for next year as the prime selling time for them is from around July to September.

      I must admit after adding this post id decided it must be a scam when I see offers like this and should think back to ..........

      'if it sounds too good to be true it usually isnt'...........
