Heather,
There is a gentleman named Philip Edinger, who is the Identification
Chairman of the Historic Iris Preservation Society (HIPS) who you can
send a picture of your unknown iris..or the plant itself..and he will
try to identify it for you. I don't believe you have to be a member of
HIPS to do this, but if your interested send $5.00 to Ada Godfrey, 9
Bradford Street, Foxborough MA 02035. HIPS issuses two informative
newsletters each year and they also have a databank(over 3000 varieties)
of older iris with sources where you may buy or trade.
