shizen said:thank you for your posts, serjio. it's very a very interesting journey to go on with you, vicariously!
last evening, i watched an ais presentation of novelty irises, given by bonnie nichols. besides the broken color iris colors, there were quite a few flatties, and tulip shaped irises that have been introduced. i didn't take notes, but the concave falls were "typical" of the tulip shaped ones that have been introduced. i wish i were able to remember some of their names. if i can remember, i will edit this post to include names.
i thought the form and color on some of the novelties were interesting, and would add interest to a garden setting. if i had room, i might be tempted to add flatties and tulip shaped ones.
It would be interesting to look at these varieties you are talking about. Are we talking about bearded irises or Japanese ones? At least, I saw in the classification of Japanese irises this form of flower (when the fouls do not open completely)
