Get your rhizomes dug,
Get them in a bag,
Get them to the chairman, please
and don't forget the tag.
Bring your shears and lunch,
Don't forget a pen,
Grab a bunch of unmarked plants
and
Eagerly begin
Rhizome sales, rhizome sales, marking parties, too,
If you want to help your club,
I'll tell you what to do
Oh....
Rhizome sales, rhizome sales, marking parties, too,
If you want to help your club,
This is what you do:
Volunteer your time,
for setting up the sale.
Notify your friends,
By phone or post or email.
Be a sale host,
and share the joy within,
Show the public what fun it is
to be an
Irisarian!
Oh....
Rhizome sales, rhizome sales, marking parties, too,
If you want to help your club,
This is what you do....
Oh.....
Rhizome sales, rhizome sales, marking parties, too,
If you want to help your club,
You know what to do!
