RE: albino vesper iris

 

Sean, Robert, et al,

 I really like dichotoma too; itâs so welcome at the time it blooms. I also have only the ordinary color, and keep trying to find more interesting colors/patterns. So, add my name to the chorus pleading for seed donations of special strains.

Sean, Love it!! I have never been good at growing dichotoma but I keep trying. A few years ago I got some seedlings from The Missouri Botanical garden that were only about a foot or a foot and a half tall. They were all white and they had a wide variety of markings. the markings were mostly brown or olive in color. It appears we have not even seen the tip of the iceberg when it comes to variation in this species. I wish I could get lots of different ones to grow and play with breeding.

I happened across this photo of a really spectacularly marked albino
vesper iris on a Chinese website. It seems to me that other forms I've
seen photos of have had very pale to nearly nonexistent signals, but
this one is downright showy.
