Linda,
All four irises in the photos you posted to iris-photos look nearly
indistinguishable from one another to me, except that the middle pair have
beards whose lower halves appear white, but the first and last ones have
beards that are yellow nearly to the tip. BTW they are all neglectas
(blue-violet bitones), not amoenas (which have white standards and colored
falls according to the standard definition).
If your Merrily Smith unknown is actually more yellow then it appeared in
the photo you posted, then it could possibly be TREASURE ISLAND.
