Re: SPEC: I. lazica


From: "Paul Tyerman" <tyerman@hotmail.com>


Further to me message below...... the 3 flowers opened today.  They are 
actually slightly more lavender than the I. unguicularis, much smaller, with 
tear-drop shaped falls that sort of form a sharper end.  Very delicate and 
pretty.

Sure no one out there has seen it?

Cheers.      Paul T. (Australia)
