Re: CULT: Lace

I had a nice iris from that same cross a while back.  Tall big, heavily
ruffled purple (same color as Titan's Glory, much better form.  I lost it to
crown rot when I had 3 rhizomes.  I tried the bleach treatment, and the roots
all died.  Now I use mortar mix on the wound afterscraping.

Try the Ghio red-burgundy iris; he has a few recent ones all starting with "R"
that are fairly dark, and very lacy.

  Looking for a dark colored iris with lace to use with a seedling. I have
not
  seen or grown one with dark colors. All I have seen is white, yellow,
orange
  and lavender(orchid).

  Seedling is from Mulled Wine X Honky Tonk Blues. First time it bloomed it
had
  just a little, later blooms has a lot of lace. A burgundy wine with a blue
  flush. Buds start out all most black.
