This is a seedling from another batch of I. pumila seed from SIGNA that was marked "high variation." It has a much thinner beard than the Suslik seedlings, but note the pumila "thumb spot" on the falls.

Pumila's are very short- about 6". They aren't a very "refined" flower like we are used to seeing in the hybrids, but I find them fascinating.

Edited to add: I'll be posting more pictures later of the pumila's that are blooming today.
