Thanks.

Tom, my only crosses so far have been beardless, and I haven't even considered doing a bearded, but what a great idea. I'm sure she would love a beardless cross just as well. I don't think they were readily available back then.

That's why I was asking over on Cubits if anyone was doing crosses on historics. I have identified through Superstition and buying one to grow side by side that the iris she had the largest clumps of was Beatrice. So, if I could cross Beatrice with another of the same age, that would be wonderful. I'm sure my friend Dee and the rest here and on Cubits would help me. I know the old ones are diploid.
