[PHOTO] KOSHO-EN


KOSHO-EN (B. LeRoy Davidson, 1984) Iris setosa, 30", white stands & falls,
narrow yellow signal.  Noted for its purple stained bracts that contrast
with the white flowers.  Degree of purple staining may vary with climatic
conditions.  Purchased as a seedling from Kosho Nursery; found growing in
the wild.

You can see the purple buds just beneath the open flower in my photo.
There's also a tiny bit of purple veining on the falls near the yellow
signals.
