Dear Griff: If memory serves, this is a variety that was on the front page
of an AIS Bulletin a few years ago. It is from the Japanese irises, but NOT
the Ensata types. My memory will not come up with the name tonight. I grew
many hundreds of them in Radford, looking for rebloom, but never got any.
