Beard color for Silverado?

springfield area, MO(Zone 5b)

I have silverado and uncle charlie. So the only two that have bloomed that could even possibly be either are slightly different, but not enough for me to tell who is who.
The only difference in the two that bloomed are the beard color.
Does anyone know what color their beards should be?
Both of the ones that bloomed are fragrant, bloomed at the same time

I already seen the pics on plantfiles. I can't tell anything from them, some of them look more blue some more yellow, and cameras and monitors vary. I was hoping someone who has grown these would know. I have not heard of the wiki iris encyclopedia, will look that up, thank you.

Registration info lists beard color as "self", so that's the same color as the petals....Arlyn

After seeing the photos on the wiki encyclopedia I am inclined to think that the iris on the right is Silverado.
Does anyone agree? disagree?

When I looked at the pictures, I thought the one on the right was Silverado, too. I'm no expert, though :))

Well I looked at the pics also for Uncle Charlie and it seems to have an even richer color on the beard so that is partially why I think the right one is Silverado.
