Re: Rocky Mtn Iris

Hello,

If we are talking about the same iris, there are no less than 2 Rocky
Mountain Irises. Commonly also called BLue Flag and Yellow Flag, they are
readily available in wildflower catalogues. Perhaps someone knows the
latin name for these? They prefer boggy/wet soil, and are quite simple and
lovely.
