I seem to have messed up my records. Can't identify this Ensada iris. White with violet veins. Hope someone can help. Aside from bloom has like 7 more buds.

Any idea where you bought it from? That might help narrow down your possibilities. There are a few with that color and veining.

Have to go back over my records. I bought a bunch from Cascadia Iris Gardens but these are big plants so i probably got them from a local nursery. The one next to it bloomed and looks like the same plant. I usually don't plant two together. Here's a pic of both. I should have the other one labeled.

If you got it from Cascadia then Pink Dimity is a really good possibility. Especially as yours has the darker mauve style arms and the big yellow signals. https://wiki.irises.org/Ji/JiP...

Great call but it's not. I did get one Pink Dimity from Cascadia this season but its still small. The lines are definitely more pink than violet though. I know which nursery i got them from i'll see if they have more of them this year. Took more pics yesterday, their blooming like mad.
