Re: Iris urmiensis


 

Dennis,

simply beautious!  I had two seedlings from last season that, unfortunately, didn't make it though our extremely cold, hard Winter.  Of course, seeing this foto, I must try again.  Are you growing this in a cold house or outside?  What soil mix does it seem to prefer?  I was using about 80% sand/pumice-20% organics, which may have held too much moisture over the cold season.  Perhaps I should use 100% gravel-sand with a touch of clay, or direct in my rockery.  Any cultural hints for this beauty would be appreciated.

One of my favorite oncocyclus irises... I'm so glad I finally got to 
meet it in real life!  It smells great.  The foliage is so narrow and 
small... not like other irises I've seen.
