I have been able to identify which type of Iris I got at the Plant
Sale. It is Iris japonica. When I was taking the plants out of the pots,
I could tell by looking at the rhizomes. It definitely is not Iris
pallida, nor is it Iris psuedacorus. The rhizomes are like those of Iris
japonica NADA that I had in Kentucky. (I no longer have those plants,
someone wanted them and I let them have them so I wouldn't have to haul
them this far.)
I now have these plants in the soil in a location that I feel will be
suitable for this species. These rhizomes came from a large mother plant
growing in a garden in Dunnellon, FL., so they should do fine for me.
