Iris variety ID?
« on: Dec 28, 2007, 09:01:49 AM »
Dave(Oh2fly) started a topic to ID his Iris variety on another forum(OG) and it sparked my curiosity as to what varieties mine are.

This is a mini

These are full sized
 
These 2 I may have written down from where i got them from :unsure:
 




Look, I know the supernatural is something that isn't supposed to happen, but it does happen...RZ

Those appear to be "Bearded Iris", but I can't tell whether they're "Tall Bearded Iris" or not. :ScratchHead: Tall Bearded Iris stalks can grow up to 3 or 4 feet, but the blossoms are exactly the same as the shorter variety.  I like the tall ones better, myself, cuz the size of the blossoms are more proportional to the length of the stem, in cut flower arrangements. 

I really like that pink one you have there! :clap: Maybe when my purple ones & my new white ones get together, I'll get some pinks! :grinnnn:

Yup, they're all bearded iris. The pink and peach ones are short. (the pink came from brecks) All the others are tall.
