Since since there would be nothing 'odd' --to use Dr.Z's term-- about
getting lavender seedlings if lavender tectorum was in the garden, I thought
Lloyd MIGHT be saying he had effected a cross between tectorum and some other
iris, possibly a bearded one as in the PALTEC cross, about which I would
certainly like to hear more. Hence my question.
Lloyd, if you are there, have you accomplished this?
