Hello Jean,
I was in Lofoten islands in northern Norway last week, visiting museums and
historic gardens. Theese two irises (see attached pictures) grow in one of
the historic gardens there.

They are obviolusly different, but can anyone tell me if this is just
natural variation, or have Iris latifolia been bred to produce cultivars?

Greetings from
Mari in Norway
