Carolyn,

The SIGNA article by John Weiler spelled the Morea three different
ways.  At November's meeting of the Fresno Iris Society of which I am a
member, John Weiler gave a presentation on iris other than bearded. 
Which was quite good--anyway he passed out corms of this Morea and he
had it labeled ARISTATA.  So I guess this is the correct spelling. I
planted my corms immediately and they are up already.  The corms are the
size of crocus and the foilage is small and narrow reaching only 4/5
inches in height.
