So, here is my Batik blooming on the same stalk as this other mystery iris. LOL, who knew??!!

This is the first bloom on the stalk

Second bloom

and the real deal revealed itself today...go figure!

It looks like herbicide damage. Have you used Roundup or something similar recently?

Nope, not in that area anyway.
But I won't rule that out as a possibility because the neighbor sprays and we are next to a wheat field that gets sprayed so there is always a chance of drift.
