Fantastic!
If you can smuggle a piece of them to me next year, i'd be very happy!


'Astra Girl' is half Iris astrachanica, like 'Persona', that gave me also seedlings: http://www.flickr.com/search/?w=33249763@N04&q=persona

i think astrachanica gives compatibility with tetra.

'Keirith' is half Iris astrachanica too, i think you can find it in the States (Aitken's)

here is a link about 'Keirith':

Hey Loic,
In case you missed them when I posted before, here are links to those interploid seedlings I mentioned below:

http://maprc.blogspot.com/2012/05/another-interploid-iris-cross-pink.html
http://maprc.blogspot.com/2012/05/pods-on-interploid-iris-seedlings.html

They're not show-stoppers in themselves, but I'm betting that they've got great breeding potential like you've been seeing.
Take care, Tom

I have no problem believing in mixed ploidy matings giving offspring.
I have three such seedlings growing out front currently:
'Pink Champagne' X 'Astra Girl'
'Honky Tonk Blues' X 'Astra Girl'
[both of these bloomed this Spring, and both set some seeds]
'Introspection' X 'Easy Smile'
[hopefully will bloom in 2013]
And I have other seeds that I hope will germinate from similar kinds of matings.
