I found this for sale at www.munchkinnursery.com together with some other
hard-to-find irises like I. verna and a white form of I. prismatica. Now,
whether it is mislabelled or not is anyone's guess. I think the nursery
owner said that he got seeds from SIGNA though.
PS: Munchkin Nursery has some other amazing non-iris hard-to-find flowers
too. I bought something called a Paris, which is supposed to be Europe's
cousin to the native Trillium. It looks like something from Star Trek!
