<< Now, I was wondering about leaves in siberians. Do any of the diploid
siberians display very upright leaves or is this a characteristic of
mainly the tetraploid siberians? I guess while I'm at it, do the
"bluer" leaves tend to be a trait off the darker colored sibs and the
greener(somewhat yellow) a trait of the white sibs? >>
I have one plant that begins the summer with beautiful purple leaves. It
eventually becomes all green. Debbie at Foxbrook Iris Farm told me about one
that tended to stay purple all summer and I have lost the notes. Maybe Andy
or Debbie would expand on this. The foliage is would be quite dramatic in the
mixed border. I would have purchased it this spring but they were out.
