Re: REF: The Gottorfer Codex

 

Wow - everything from xiphiums to junos to oncocyclus. I particularly like the illustration of Iris tuberosa, which I don't believe I've ever seen a photo of uprooted while in flower.

Actually, I think this is an excellent moment to share something with the group.
 
The document is the Gottorfer Codex from ca. 1650, The Irises appear with tabula 61, and run through 81.

we particularly would like some articles on bearded species.

I hope you can find someone to write about the species and not just about using them to create more hybrids. I believe the reason that bearded species are hard to find is that most people that have collected them only wanted to hybridize with them and not grow them because they are interesting in themselves.
