This popped up in a group of rhizomes that I salvaged from the deserted
site of an old California town (nothing left there). I had seen some
purple ones growing there for several years. Small, over grown, in the
same poor soil for probably 100 years. Last summer I finally got around
to digging up a few samples. They were all Crimson King, except for this
one rhizome. which is a different form and color. I suspect it is I.
florentina. Thoughts?
