That's the thing, my horse-loving friend --- I've looked at all the pictures and there seems to be as much difference between pics of one variety as there is between the two - meaning they look the same. But I figure there must be some difference, of some sort, or why would Keith Keppel release a new iris just like Sea Power? Of course, it could be the hardiness factor that motivated the release of Merchant Marine. It sounds like many folks have had trouble with Sea Power though its been magnificent for me.
