I agree.  SM is one of my most favorite irises too, especially for 
that dark ruby red-black glow you mentioned.

Very true again!  The individual colors are soft & subtle, but very 
impressive in a nice clump especially after a soft rain.


I don't grow any of the other cultivars you mentioned, but a few of 
my other favorites are CAJUN SUNRISE (Louisiana), CLOSE CONTACT 
(Arilbred), and I'd have to think hard to narrow down the list to my 
Top-10.  Basically I love whatever happens to be in bloom.  :)
