No, these are unknown historic iris I got from Zuzu. When I get back on my laptop, I'll find a couple of full shots of it and post them here. I think there was one possibility of a name that was considered, will have to find that too.

Full shots would be wonderful! If you could find the possible name, that would be great, too. Thank you!!

Here is the original shot and a few others.

Looks a lot like Lent A. Williamson, which is reported to be the "most commonly found noid in the US, by some estimates. Found across the country, often thriving in neglect." http://www.hips-roots.com/phot...

The other one it reminded me of was Alcazar.
