Also definatly not pumilla.
Pumila does not have a stem. Flower comes straight off of rhizome with a long floral tube. When you have a seed pod, it sits directly on top of rhizome.
Also definatly not a Pumila type of flower, standards way too long.
Did you get any aril breds or aril species at any point in time?

Thanks Yuri and Chuck.
I was also sent several diff pumilas - Bazak #4,
Bulgaria and Cretica, but thought they'd died. I can't find pix of any of
them to compare.

It doesn't
seem to be aphylla.
Standrds remind me of Oncos
Any other
species candidates?

Morning Chuck n all.
There's a few more flowers open this morning,
and since it's slightly overcast, maybe I'll get better pix.
You'd best be waiting at your neighbour's
driveway, tinkering with your old tractor. :)

I'm not
familiar with this cultivar, allthough have several dozen aphyllas
here.
The standards are much longer then the
usuall aphylla.
How about plant picture, and photo of flowering
stalk?

Due to a labelling mishap in 2001/2, some
of my iris have lost their id, as I never saw them bloom before their
labels went missing.
This iris is one of those, but it's been in
the same spot in one of my nursery beds since 2001 and just decided to
bloom the last few years. Looking back over my iris list from
2001, I'm wondering if this could be I aphylla var
Romanian?
It's camera shy too. I've tried all
day to get a decent picture, but this is the best I could
do.
