Re: veriscolor seeds, request

Still pretty green but I'll try it.
 
Must have rained a bunch last night. Couldn't get to half of them. Did find a few pods. Not a lot out there. Literally have thousands of wild versicolor on the property but it was such a cold miserable spring that few flowers produced pods.
Bear with me a few minutes haven't worked the camera since last summer. Lost the camera and the charger during a move and just barely found them.

Sue: I would like very much to get a picture of a cross-section of a versicolor pod.It should have six rows of seeds. It would be easier to do when a pod is green. If you have a scanner you could cut it in half, plave the cut surface down on the scanner and create a picture. This could be useful for the Iris encyclopedia I am working on.

I've got some growing wild. Lots but the pods are still very green. I did a little squeeze a couple days ago and they aren't ready

Dennis,
 
I hope someone else has some Iris versicolor growing in the wild near them. Near my old property about 30 miles east of here, there were some wonderful strands of versicolor along a dirt road in the forest.  I did collect several pods from them for a few years and sent some to the SIGNA seed exchange and also to several friends. I think Ginny Prins in Canada bloomed some of them.
 
I wasn't an Iris versicolor ''fan' so I didn't plant any myself. This is the time of year that the pods should  be ripening so if no one else sends you any, let me know and I will trek over the mountain with my digital camera and see if I can find a pod ot two and photograph them in the wild and also take a pod home with me if they are in abundance. Hate to take a pod in the wild it is an only.
