Springhill catalog has this iris pictured on page 21 of their spring catalog. It is listed as Iris tectorum variegata in the catalog. However when I look up that culivar on Iris pages it doesn't look much like the picture. I bought this iris once several years ago but lost it in the '93 heavy rains. It was just like the picture & description in the catalog. Knowing Springhill's bad reputation nowdays I am reluctant to spend that kind of money for 3 rhizomes that may be dead when they get here. Does anyone know the true identity of the pictured iris and where I can purchase or trade for it? Thanks for any help you can give me.
Want true identity of Lace Handkerchief Iris from Springhill
After much research online last night I think I have found that it is really Iris japonica. It most nearly matches the pictures in the catalogs.
