Unfortunately they do not have I. perrieri.
Then again, nobody does.
See Brian Mathew 'The Iris' addendum for revised edition (pg 193):
'Rather like I. aphylla in having strongly ribbed leaves, long branches
to the inflorescence and purple flowers, and it closely resembles a form
of I. aphylla from Romania...'
It is a diploid as well.
Any ideas who may have it in cultivation other than Brian Mathew? Seeds
would be nice. Consider this my annual request.
