RE: Re:Iris pallida

You have some very interesting crosses. The Kupari x pallida will be of much interest to me. Also of much interest would be the F2 of the Kupari x varigatae and also back crosses to original parent. What I'm looking for is information on the possible origin of the pl gene. I. pallida has been considered the origin yet there is no glaciatas in the MTB class and no pallida show plicata patterning. I'm considering that I. variagata is the true source.
