Hmmmm. The species LA that knocked my socks off in the big D was the 
chocolate I. fulva, which had been feared extinct. I will never forget 
Farron Campbell describing how weak in the knees he felt when a stalk 
was brought into a club meeting with a question something like  
"I haven't seen anything like this before. Is it something special?"

BTW, I was assured that the clone is a good grower, and was in enough 
different gardens that it should not be lost again.
