All iris have them. Otherwise beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Thanks for saying this.  You wouldn't bellieve how irritating it is 
for me to have to endure people stating what is politically correct 
and what's not in the Iris world.  I brought in a seedling that broke 
in the storm a few days ago and showed it to my wife.  I then 
mentioned to her why it could never be introduced and pointed its 
flaws and her simple response was something to the tune of "what 
about freedom of expression and personal tastes ?" Regardless of 
form, haft marks and other frowned upon traits, I'm still getting a 
heck of a kick pulling up the the driveway and seeing seedlings with 
horns and flounces in bloom.  It has been fun.

If your goal was to grow SA appendages in Z4 you have certainly 
gotten some rather dynamic results!"

I'm at the office now, I'll have to see if I can send you a bigger 
file from home but I'm pretty sure I reduced it and and stuck with 
the small file now.  Maybe I can photograph it again tonight.

Chris
