Teacher Tazzy...a question ?

Pickens, SC(Zone 7a)

I am "corn"fused.
I have Tall Bearded Iris
Siberian Iris (i think ?) Cesear Bro.
one that grows in the pond : Black Gamecock ( is that a louisiana iris?)
and dutch iris

can you tell me the difference between
dutch iris and siberian iris

louisianna iris and japanese iris?
thanks charlotte

I'm not Tazzy, but perhaps I can offer some general info. Siberian, Louisiana, and Japanese irises are different types of rhizomatous (growing from rhizomes), beardless irises. Spuria irises and several species irises (versicolor, pseudacorus, setosa, etc.) also fit into this category.

Dutch irises are bulbous (growing from bulbs) irises.

You can read much more about each of the rhizomatous irises by visiting each iris society's website linked from the following page:

Hope that helps,

Black Gamecock is a Louisiana .and Caesars Brother is a Siberian .
Louisiana's can be grown in water but a No No for Siberians .
