I don't know about the similar color part, Linda, but there are a couple of other showy seedlings that are challenged in the height department that might be candidates for a really wild cross.  A thought for next year.  Thanks.  --  Griff

Is this a first year seedling?  Perhaps it will change a little in coming years growth.  It is quite lovely.  What if you crossed it with a similar color iris that is shorter and stalkier!  Is that a word?  LOL   Know what I mean?  Thicker, heftier!  :)

I like it Griff

Here's a seedling that has me in a quandary.  The color scheme is just about unique, the branching is good and the bud count is 7.  But, at 48" tall, it has to be staked, because, sooner or later, rain and wind will make it lean or fall.  Also, its very size means that it has to have extra space in the garden.  The question is, with those demerits, should it be introduced?   --   Griff
