It's not the first bloom of the season, just the first maiden seedling
bloom. A sibling that maiden bloomed late last fall has 5 stalks with
buds showing color!

It's basically a very stressed TB - stunted TB diameter stalk, crumpled
bloom. While the height might be close to SDB this time, it's probably
not a median ;-(.

Could be median or at least BB, with those IMM genes in there, but one
of the reasons for playing with the PINK FORMAL bee baby is that it
seems to mostly overwhelm short/small flower median? genes (that I don't
want) coming from IMM.

Finally supposed to get some rain this weekend, hopefully not mixed with
tornados and hail

<The first iris of the season to bloom sure is exciting, especially your
own seedling. Is it SDB height, Linda?
