Thanks everyone
for your great suggestions. 'Golden Stairs' (thx
IrisLilli) is not in NZ to my knowledge; 'Happy Days' is, but falls not copper enough. Jean Steven's 'Argosy' (thx
Totally_Amazing) was a strong consideration but again not copper enough on the falls. Argosy is very similar but all photos I have seen show copper flecks rather than all over copper on falls. Have spoken to other 'Argosy' growers who also say no. Am still open to other suggestions - would dearly love to able to give this little iris a name
all...
