Hi, everyone
Here are the other 2 pumila seedlings
that I kept from the cross of (pumila 7 X 'Tiny Temptress'). There were
others, but they were all purple and, since I would not be using them for
hybridizing, nor do I have room to keep them, they had to go. These 2
bloomed on a sunny day (finally!!!) so the flowers show up brighter. Seedling 4
is yellow, like seedling 1 was; however, the brown rays on the falls of 4 are
rose colored. One of the purple discarded seedlings can be seen to the
right of the yellow seedling. Seedling 5 is white, like seedling 3, but
the distressed spot on 3 becomes, in seedling 5, simple rays that are blue and
which on the second day fade a bit to a lovely sky blue color. As with all
pure pumilas, theses two seedlings have beards of two colors. The yellow
seedling's beards are white, then orange in the throat. The white
seedling's beards are white, then yellow in the throat. Pollen from all
these has been dried and saved and will be used on other bearded iris crosses
later this spring.
