Although I usually buy my irises from specialist growers (less chance of their being labeled incorrectly) I saw this in bloom at a garden nursery and **something made me** buy it :o)) It grows to about 13 inches in height and the petals are quite elongated, especially the falls. It's standards are cream and the falls a mixture of green, cream and brown streaks (best I can describe it). I'm at a complete loss to know what kind of iris it is. I know it isn't a bearded or Siberica, it isn't a Stylosa or Ensata...what is it?? Please, does anyone have any idea?? The name on the label is 'California' (but it could be mislabelled). Any help is extremely appreciated..........Thanks!! Terri (in England - where the weather is very confused at the moment, LOL) |
