It is easy to navigate, the photos are excellent representatives of the iris themselves, it's organized............wow! I've added your link to my iris links as well. Annie, A couple of others that are at least half brown are: (see photos at links) Bugundy Brown (TB), http://davesgarden.com/pf/go/34314/index.html Santana (TB), http://davesgarden.com/pf/go/36400/index.html Cut Above (BB). no picure - brown standards and edges, white to pale yellow falls. 20, 30, 40 years ago - - there were a lot of brown irises introduced. I'd like to see some more of them introduced. One I've been looking for and don't know if I can find it - - is called Chocolate Pudding. It has velvety brown falls and is suppose to be a rebloomer. Has anyone here heard of it, or grown it, or know where to find it? Below is an old photo I've found and scanned of Burgundy Brown from years and years ago. Great grower! NOTE: The falls were more yellow (not orange) blending to white than what that photo shows. ~Margie |
