Re: Iris rudskyi

So far, my few attempts at growing I. rudskyi have failed with the heat of summer, but I've seen nice ones growing in Colorado, and to me they look like nothing more than a selection of I. variegata.  I. rudskyi also looks a lot (in form) like a yellow version of I. reginae, which itself is a white variant of I. variegata.
 
As for culture, I failed at all attempts to grow 'Reginae' too, but this time I put it in a pot and in the shade of a Pfitzer Juniper, and it is growing quite happily for nearly two years now.  I'll try the same for other I. variegata in the future, which nearly all give me trouble when planted in the ground out in the sun.
