: Anyway, what *is* the significance of purple based foliage on iris?
We have not yet resolved the question of whether it IS signficant. The trait
comes from species native to colder climates so there has been some speculation
that it might be linked to hardiness but it is far from proven. And at the rate
data are NOT coming in, I suspect the question will remain unanswered.
