IRIS DEVELOPMENT: WHY DONT WE USE OTHER PLANT POLLEN FOR RARE NEW IRISES?

reference:  Strange Brew:
 
This is surely one of the most interesting irises where, of all things, " Pine tree pollen" had fallen on the iris causing this beautiful color combinations. Please do try to replicate this. Another idea, If Pine Tree Pollen was responsible for this "rare" iris genetics, why don't we try  to use other plant pollen as well and experiment.  Please give me your thoughts...keith

Well, now, that's a harlequin, for sure, and one of the prettiest I've seen.  Why don't you try the cutting-off-the-rhizome trick to see if you can get it to keep doing it?  --  Griff

Here is something that happened with the first of the blooms on Being Busy...the dusty fall petals are because of the pine pollen that falls at the same time our SDBs bloom...Paul Hill
