Yes, you are right and it comes from locality where hyrcana could be foundable.

Thankyou Janis.
I was given another I reticulata, in flower today, which looks similar, a little smaller than "Talysh form" and a shade darker ANIRI 10002 Olan Pass. Where is the Olan Pass?
The small tradidional form of hyrcana will be open tomorrow  if it is sunny here. Talish form has been in flower for a week.

Talish hyrcana is the earliest of reticulatas with me and this one (WHIR-080) is the earliest from species (not hybrids!) this year.

Commercial I bakeriana was first for me, usually it is Talysh.
I reticulata KPPZ 90 -152 is flowering, so are Iris histroides from both yourself and Norman Stevens.
McMurtries "Blue Ice" is flowering, as well as his "Sophistication". Leonids "Lovely Lisa is in flower too.
They were potted late this winter which may have delayed some.

Where is the drooling symbol when you want it.

Hans - it is one special Iris after another - all perfectly grown.
