Re: SPEC: Iris kirkwoodii ssp. calcarea


These photos are really special.  Thank you so much for sharing them with us.  It is interesting to see the iris blooming in their natural habitat...especially pure arils.  I really enjoyed them.

Hi all,

Those are the first photos from my present trip to the Middle East. I found Iris
kirkwoodii ssp. calcarea at its type habitat near Qalaat Semaan (the ruins of
the site of St.Simeon the Stylite) near Aleppo in northern Syria. The species
seems to be quite common around there and is picked by the locals at some
places.

The size of the attached files is quite large (up to 160k per picture) in order
to secure a standard of quality and resolution.

There are more species photos to follow...

Enjoy...

Thomas.
