Re: Iris versicolor variation

All very nice, Jerry.  I too like the Hatamatak swamp one best. 
 
Here's the one I collected from the Lac du Bonnet area in the mid 1980's.  It self sows here, but there's not too much variation.
 
Your ridge variation looks much like the one I went to see on Sunday.  I couldn't get a good picture of it though, as the one remaining flower was close to folding up.

Nice selection. Like the Hatamatak swamp one best.

Watch for branching and bud count variations. There are some very nice clones in NS with excelent bud  count.

Over the past couple of years I have been seeking out variations in Iris versicolor in my area. So far, I have collected three blooming variations and recently collected another dozen non-blooming rhizomes from local bogs and swamps which hopefully will bloom next year and reveal some more variation.
I have attached photos of the three plants that bloomed this year.
