Quick question to New Englanders: On a weekend visit to the family in Rhode
Island, my cousins remembered finding what they called "blue swamp irises"
or "blue flags" growing around the coves and inlets of Newport. They
described "smallish" plants with beardless blooms, mostly blue-violet,
veined violet and with a little yellow on the falls.
I guessed they were talking about versicolors. Is this likely? Anyone know
the wild irises of Newport, RI?
