I have always considered Circus Stripes to be  a veined or streaked
plicata. Both parents are plicatas from plicata breeding. Winners's
Circle X sibling.  WC is a plicata zonal and both are children of
stepping out. The pattern is the same as with the streaked, veined
plicatas such as "Flea Circus", "Autumn Circus", "Webmaster" and the
veined  SDB seedling that I posted to iris-photos.  As I discussed
plicatas I posted several photos of different plicatas along with
their description and genetics. Reviewing this information may be of
some help in sorting out the different types. By the way there are 15
different plicata genotypes, some look very similar. The shades of
colours and different pigments can make the same genotypes look  very
different and some pigments distribute differently. I may be able to
do some pigment research at the University of Guelph this summer along
with someone who is reseaching antyhocyanin pigments in the skins of
grapes.
