Harald Mathes sent me this clone. Photo
below. Here are his notes on it:
I obtained two I.reichenbachii clones from
Robert Scheck, an Austrian iris lover, which were collected at the Varda Gorge
in Macedonia by the late Rudolf Wuerdig, who for a few years was also a member
of the ASI. They didn't set seed when I crossed them with other I.reichenbachii
but gave full pods after intercrossing. They produce full pods too by tet MTBs
and I now have seedlings from I.reichenbachii Varda x pink MTB seedling. I think
there is no doubt that they are tetraploids.
I moved it to a new bed last summer and will not be
digging any this year, but it should be available in my Iris Colorado
Website price list of bearded species again in 2007.
