Ilona Jacobson

Ilona Jacobson is a passionate gardener with a deep love for growing a wide variety of plants, but their hearts truly belong to irises.

Ilona cultivates and sells an impressive range, including Bearded, Siberian, Louisiana, Japanese, and Spuria irises and each year proudly showcases blooms at the Hobart Horticultural Society’s Rose and Iris Show, consistently earning awards for their stunning entries. As active members of the Society’s Iris Group, their dedication to these beautiful flowers is clear.

When not tending to the garden, Ilona enjoys another creative outlet - knitting and crocheting. Visit their stall at Salamanca Market to discover a delightful collection of handmade wool creations.
