Gave as gift - need ID please

Gardiner, ME(Zone 5a)

I gave some irises to a friend of mine last year or the year before so she could get an iris garden going.Some of them she lost ,also the tag that goes with this one.

Does anyone know this iris ? ...I must have given her all of them and didn't keep any of my own ?
Thanks.

art_n_garden,
that is DEFINATELY it .....I took mor epictures and put plant files here on DG's side by side with mine and it sure looks like it is solved.
Thank you so much !!
NOW all I need to do is get some back from my friend so I have it in my garden too :-)

You're so welcome! I think it's a beautiful historic - I got it as a free gift at an iris sale last year...haven't seen any blooms yet though.

You are right wish I would have had it to share when we did the historic iris swap last year.I wonder if Neal is doing one again ?
