Thanks Margie. These pictures renew my suspicion that someone had a slip between their mind and their typing fingers and my iris is Riverhawk instead of Riversong. Do you know the parantage of Riverhawk?

Does anyone know anything about an iris called Riverhawk? Is it a rebloomer?  The iris I received is a neglecta.

HI Pearl,

 

Riverhawk is indeed a neglecta.  Check out his link to see other photos of it. http://davesgarden.com/pf/go/36290   I grew it years and years ago, but it never rebloomed for me - but it may be blooming for you.
