It certainly is a cute little thing. VERY similar in appearance to
the Iris reticulatas, but with the little wing appearance. Leaves are
totally different, sort of curling around. Can take a picture of them
as well if anyone is interested.

Thanks. That one is courtesy of a friend who sent me stuff from
Tasmania. I have received so many nice things from him, with things
like this thrown in from time to time that I have never even heard of
let alone seen.
I have a lot of bits and pieces and add to them whenever I can find
anything interesting. At the moment we're trying to work out how we
can add a second storey to the garden <grin>........ Don't have much
space (but that has never stopped me yet <big grin>.
Glad you're enjoying the pictures. Have all sort of other non-iris
pics of stuff such as Hellebores, Galanthus, Species Narcissus,
Fritillarias (will be taking more as they flower) and stuff like that.
Cheers.
