Iris ID please :D

(Zone 6a)

We've had this Iris in our garden forever, I think it came with the house.
If I could get an ID that would be great!

Steve:
It looks like I germanica to me. That flower looks like it is barely open. Does it get a little longer in the falls?
Here is an I germanica for you to compare with.

Thanks for responding Laetitia, your photo looks just like my iris, but I'll run out tomorrow morning and check on the falls.
When you say I germanica, do you mean one of the hybrids or the actual species?
