ID question: is this a sib?


Hi Folks-  

I have an iris that I had always assumed was a siberian but after 
learning more about the various species I am not so sure.  It has 
grassy foliage like a sib, grows about 20" tall, the flower stalks
are shorter than the foliage making them only visible from above. 
Here is a link to a photo of it:  http://www.geocities.com/land_of_mu/
iris-photos/lavender-sib.HTML  .  From the center to the end of a 
petal is maybe 2 inches, the standards are short and spoon shaped. 
The style arms almost completely cover the falls, leaving just a
small spoon shaped section protruding.  The coloration in the photo is 
very close to accurate, on my monitor anyway. =)  I realize identifying
it's name is next to impossible, but any assistance in classifying
it's species is appreciated.  

Thanks

Mike Unser
