[PHOTO] trying to identify seedling


This year an iris I grew from seed, that according to my label
is supposed to be I. tridentata, has bloomed. However,
the large standards rule out that plant. I'm attaching a picture.

The flower is rather small and the plant has very narrow leaves. The
leaves pretty much rule out I. versicolor or I. virginica. The plant
forms a dense clump and the flower stem is perfectly straight. That
seems to eliminate I. prismatica. As near as I can guess it is a siberian.
It has purple stamens, so it could be I. sanguinea.

Does anyone else have an opinion?
