Re: RE: Varigated halophalia
Hello Chuck,
I excuse, I must correct the name-not I.halophalya but I.halophila.
Neverthless the flowers of I.halophila are from pale yellow to rich golden
yellow, but not lavender blue. You must look for correct identification. The
color of leaves do this iris quite worthy efforts to identify.
