I think it is Iris iberica ssp elegantissima shown as I. attica in Sue's post « Reply #41 on: April 03, 2007, 11:37:10 AM »on page 3 of this thread
SueG:
I am innocent - I just copied down what I thought the label said! I make no claims at all to know about irises and will happily take your word for the correct name! I don't know whose plant it was as it was at the back of the bench and I couldn't see the card.

Hi Sue, Ardaby, Maggi et al,
I took photos of the labels as well as the plants, and the iris in question was labelled as Iris iberica. So now who's right I wonder? It was stunning whatever it is and certainly caught my eye as it did Sue's because we both took a photo of it. I didn't photograph the name labels on the whole though, so don't know the owner of this gem.

Life gets too complicated at times ::)
There are THREE irises on the show bench -
1. Post #36 Pic 5 is Iris suaveolens violacea which is Darren's.
2. Post #41 Pic 5 is Iris ibirica elegantissima
And
3. Post #42 Pic 3 an unusually coloured dark blue Iris suaveolens.
I've already got 1 & 2 but I'd really like 3 but I can't find out whose it is, so I'll go and lie down in a darkened room and wait for Saturday, when I hope I might meet the plant at Cleveland show where all will be revealed.
But in the meantime, anyway, thanks to all those who took the pics!
