Iris foetidissima


I am looking for sources of forms of Iris foetidissima - I have the 
normal type. It grows well in dry shade, and looks good all year round.  
I feel I have taken it for granted too long - ignored it totally, 
actually.  Then I went round the garden in the most miserable part of 
the winter to see what looked lively, and there was my neglected iris.  
I've come round to the idea that what does well in a garden needs to be 
encouraged, so I am going to do some hybridizing of this plant.  Is 
anyone else trying to brighten its blossoms?
