iris ID's please....

Browns Mills, NJ(Zone 6b)

These were dug out of a neighbors bed and I was wondering what there names were. The bi-color one is shorter, maybe 24 inches and the other ones are about 6 inches or so taller than that one. Thankyou, Andrea

Your #2 looks exactly like my unkRed2. But I don't know what it is either. Hope someone can help you. Anyhow they are lovely.

Your #1 photo - looks to be Mary Francis. Take a look at these photos...........I'm pretty sure it is a match.

Yes, I thought Mary Frances for the first one also. In my garden it starts out bluish-lavender and ends with pale lavender.

My Red at Night looks a lot like your photo #2. Don't have my photos on this machine as I'm up north, but Plant Files has a few, one of which does look a lot like mine.

Wow I have to agree with the # 1 photo. here is another shot where it shows the red veining. I don't know the term. I think It looks exactly like it. I'll check out the photo's for the #2. Thankyou everyone!

I think it looks more like red at night because of the white specks by the beards, but thats why I thought It looked like Forge Fire. Forge Fire has the same white specks around the beards and the same kind of coloring especially in this picture in PlantFiles. I don't know what I'm looking for though. I just noticed those similarities. Andrea

Thank You. I believe that looks like it also. I guess I'll be off to buy one to compare. Thanks again. Andrea.

I wonder if one of my reds is Red at Night. I received one once as a bonus and thought it had died, but maybe the tags just got messed up. I have been referring to it as "Back Lot Red" due to lack of ID.
