Beautiful, Sandra.
I immediately thought, "That looks like I. versicolor." Of course, a lot
nicer than the plain species clone I grow (which is still very nice).
BTW, are you familiar with and do you grow the I. versicolor John Wood?
It was very popular at the spring national. Hybridized (or selected, not
sure) by the late irisarian of the same name, introduced by and
available from Ev Lineberger. As I remember, it is a little lighter than
CC, with rounder flatter falls.
Thank you for the picture (and all the others, too).
