Re: CULT: rebloom -- indoor seedling

Hi all,
Call me old fashioned, but I'd like to see more of a swing back to this "dated" form, or even more "dated".  Some of these newer ones with "full", "rounded", or "flaring" flowers don?t even look like Iris to me anymore.  I like it.  I have lots with this form, but none of them are such a nice dark rich color.  I might add that by my old-fashioned standards, this one even looks "modern".
 
Not a single rebloom this year for me, and I've no others in the area either.  It was a very wet cool summer, and it's been a relatively cool autumn.  Wonder how that relates.
 
Best to all,
Dave

It's looking a bit perkier today, Billy  Maybe the terminal bloom was a little tired.  I can accept this flower form.  The falls have a satiny sheen.  It'll do okay as a breeder.  --  Griff

Sdlg 04R3, which I dug, potted and brought inside, is blooming nicely.  The lighting isn't too great for photos, but I'm attaching a couple.  It's a deep purple self, with beard the same color, as I expected.  6 buds, maybe 7, and nice height (30") and branching.  The flower form, however, is a little dated.  I guess that may be from a hidden gene in the parent whose identity was lost, since the pod parent has nice broad, semi-flared falls and usually produces similarly-shaped progeny.  I'll have to see what can be done with further breeding.  --  Griff
