Re: unknown lilac iris and Sapphire Hills

Pearl, I suspect you have AMETHYST FLAME (Schreiners 57).  Photo of mine attached: got it from Schreiners around 1973 and it's been divided and replanted numerous times by now.

Does anyone recognize this iris? I'm sure it came from a pastel collection from Spring-Hill one year. Probably about 1994. That means that it was probably introduced about ten years earlier. I got Sapphire Hills in that same collection and noticed it was putting out lots of new growth this morning despite the fact that we just had snow this week. Sapphire Hills is one of my first iris to bloom and continues throughout the blooming season. It is sometimes one of the last to bloom.
