<< Many thanks for your comments on tridentata. At the moment, I am not
trying to grow it but was very interested to learn if there was any
confirmation of its occurence in Louisiana as that is quite a way from
Florida. It may be that Murray was mistaken, I will contact him and
find out where he got the information. >>
I certainly have never heard of I. tridentata being so far west, and am
doubtful. There was at least one report of it being found in Tennessee in the
19th century. It is in any event quite rare in the wild from what I
understand. The authority on this iris is John Wood, P.O. Box 861, Gaffney,
SC, 29342-0861. Clarence Mahan in VA
