Re: misidentified species?


Ken, The PCIs quite often are identified by their perianth tube. Lee Lenz,in
his book: 'A Revision of the Pacific Coast Irises', publixhed in 1958,
states that the perianth tube is 30-62 mm long (aver. 48mm). In several
books they mention that the flowers are a soft creamy yellow.
