I found a nice article on the Japan Iris Society web site
about wild iris in Japan

   http://www.kamoltd.co.jp/kyokai/English/wild_iris.html

I found it interesting that their name for Iris sanguinea var. violacea
is "Kamayama shobu". Kamayama is the name under  which a
a plant of Iris sanguinea brought from Japan by Jean Witt in
1968  is circulated. Does anyone know whether Kamayama has
a particular meaning of if it is just a name?
