Phillipb2,
I love a challenge...so I did a little poking around and I have another iris for you to consider for your red noid. It's called Scarlet O'Harlett. Here is a copy of a photo from Nola's Iris garden (who is still accepting orders...for those of you who can still be tempted).
The thing that caught my eye is the color of the ribs on the standards. Some sites have photos that show a much darker red, but this one and the one at Blue J Iris show the lighter red.
Good Luck!
Marilyn
