Henryanner asked about I x 'Paltec'. I happened to have discussed this
cross with George Bush of "clean-shaven iris" fame recently. According
to George (and I've never known him to be wrong) <Grin> I x 'Paltec' is
a cross of I. pallida and I. tectorum, with the latter being the pod
parent.
x 'Paltec' behaves well in a mixed border--grows well and blooms
reliably, just before the intermediate beardeds--a "must have" for the
serious collector.
