Help please, same Acorn reward! Smiling



Stan, what more can you tell us about that second (pink) one? Is the plant dormant? Does it rebloom? What season does it start blooming? What is the bloom size?

I ask, because the bloom looks very similar to my blooms on 'Crystalline Pink'. CP is a dormant plant, it does not rebloom, it had FFO this year somewhere between May 16-23 (I track bloom by the quarter month) which I would call EM or M (the database says M). In my garden, more often than not the blooms do not open flat (we have cool nights). The sepals are a bit lighter in color than the petals (I have to wonder if it is a bitone, but CP is not registered as such), the whole bloom is very light colored, and the blooms can blotch. I haven't measured my blooms, but 5" sounds about right for the bloom size. Thus far, my plant has shown resistance to rust (I have yet to see rust on it).



A recent photo, from 6-7-15 (the blooms usually don't look that dark; normally the entire bloom looks somewhat washed out in color):

Evaluating an iris seedling, hopefully for rebloom
