This was bought two years ago as MDB Zipper. Definitely not. It is SDB in size. I keep it in hopes I will see one like it and can acquire it to grow with this little one for ID purposes. So far I have not found one. It is a sunny bright garden iris and faithful to bloom every spring so far.

Are you telling me you have the "wrong bloomers", Bonnie ?!

Here's a better photo of the yellow one in my first post;

I have one that looks similar to that one John, but not a very good photo of it.

This will be my second year trying to Id it. I've Googled yellow historic Iris, yellow bearded iris and a few others. Nothing close. And it is close to yours.

Mine may just be an old seedling that grew and survived. I have another old yellow that I really like.

Bonnie what a beautiful yellow.

Debra I really like the second noID.

John I love that pink IB.

I have a purple noID from a garage sale. It blooms first. The flowers can be 5' tall. This one is about 4'.

Wow that's a beautiful deep purple color!

Niki, Its a beauty and a keeper. Even without a name.

Someone said this one looks like Champagne Elegance

It only had one bloom and was damaged by rain. I will relegate to a green pot and label it 'noid not exotic blend'. Perhaps it will send up blooms next year that make it more identifiable.

Check out Mikey Likes It.

Does it have yellow underneath the falls? Looks a lot like True Grit that I just posted.

Here is an "error" shipped to me; a NOid now but the id should be found sooner or later:
16cm/6.5 in stem, leaf 22cm/9 in, bloom about the size of older TB's



I posted it elsewhere also in hopes it is recognized. (The flying insect was checking it out!.)

That looks to be about 12" next to your yardstick, and if that's the case, I'd say it looks like Eleanor Roosevelt with that blue beard and early bloom.. 4-5' would throw it out of the running, however.

Looks a lot like this one. It is extremely vigorous. I have 2 huge clumps if anyone wants some


This one is 'Alta California'. The person I got mine from says it's not Alta Calif., but I'd like someone to tell me how it's different...

Sherry - Thanks, sure does look like a match. Another one to buy for a side by side.

Blessings

There is a better photo of Alta California on this page;

Thanks for your suggestions, Leslie. I grow Mikey Likes It and they don't match. It could be so many of the little guys as so many have that dark spot on the falls.

I don't think the second one has yellow on the back of the falls but I really did not check that. I will have to wait until next year and check for it. I am going to put True Grit in its notes as a possible.

All suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Debra -- The Red and Lilac from Arlyn are absolutely gorgeous! Beautiful Iris indeed !

Lots of lovely iris on this page! I hadn't thought about it but one lady said...Are you a plant snob? I was taken aback. No, if I like it I grow it, but I do love keeping up with IDs.
