Re: White Iris pseudacorus wc Bear Grass Creek, Jefferson City, KY

 

Roberto,
 I wonder if they could be natural hybrids with another species - maybe a white form of Iris virginica? "Jefferson City, KY" is actually Jefferson County - Lousiville, Kentucky where the Kentucky Derby is run.Â

Hi all,

in autumn 2012 I sowed the SIGNA seeds labeled as "Iris pseudacorus wc Bear Grass Creek, Jefferson City, KY (10LV131)". Today, two of these plants have flowered: one has normal yellow flower, while another has developed a white flower with little obvious signal. These seeds should be collected in nature. How to be interpreted? An example of natural diversity? It's difficult, but I can not exclude to 101% the arrival of a seed from my other iris (I grow various white flower I.pseudacorus).

Thank you.
