I think there is plicata influence in VICTORIA FALLS and maybe in
SPEED LIMIT, which is somewhat tender here. My own LIBRA STAR and SCORPIO
STAr, both with the spot patterns, are out of V F and FALL SPOTLIGHT,
which has NEEDLECRAFT, a plicata, in it. We'll just have to wait two
years to see when the seedlings bloom to see if plicata background has any
influence.

Chad and Walter,
Besides VICTORIA FALLS wonderful genetic potential for color patterns, it
grows in the Deep South. The only iris that did not rot in a collection of
160 cultivars in LRGV of Texas several years ago. VF also loves south
Louisiana. Great iris!
