Karen, I have read about an iris that is an MDB that pioneer families used
to plant on graves. They referred to it as the cemetary iris. I have also
read it is called ATROVIOLACAEA. I grow this iris and got it from HIPS.
It is small, purple, has a light blue or bluish white beard and a sweet
perfume. It is a very good performer here and repeat blooms again about a
month after the main bloom, which is early. It is very tough and hardy.
Nothing seems to bother it. Bet Anner will know exactly what you have, I
am certainly not an authority.
