Your wild one is probably a versicolor. I had a look at my pix because I have some but --- no pix. That is really exciting - to an irisarian - finding wild iris growing in the wild.

Mine come from seeds I found when walking in New Hampshire woods hunting for iris . I marked the plants because they were in bloom and then my equally iris-mad friend went and collected seed for me.

Heater in a pond -- for IRIS.... Our heater was used to keep water tank open in winter for cows. My family would have laughed at me if I'd said I wanted one for iris. What a great idea.

We gave up with the heater in the end and just pumped water for them daily.

Here is a setosa from seed I found when canoeing (actually exercising retrievers) in alaska.
