a virused 'Katharine Hodgkin' ?

(1/3) > >>

biodiversite:
comparing our photos of 'Katharine Hodgkin' on my french forum, we saw different variations of colors, i. e. it seems that in acid soil colors are stronger : do you make the same conclusion ? Moreover, one of our membre has a form with some broken colors (at the bottom of this page : http://plantes-passion.forumactif.fr/les-bulbes-f7/iris-reticules-2008-t1386-15.htm sorry the photo is too big for this forum !) : do you think this plant could be virosed ?

David Shaw:
It is certainly an unusual form, Biodiversite. I usualy associate virus with streaks on the petals, in this case the streaks are missing! I think your forumist should isolate the pot for the time being until you get an answere.
 See Dominique's 'Sheila Anne Germany' in the Reticulata thread.

mark smyth:
here's the photo

biodiversite:
thanks for the redimensionned photo and the answer : then, if not a virus, what could be responsible of such aspect ?

biodiversite:
then, the answer is perhaps there : http://www.srgc.org.uk/smf/index.php?topic=1194.225
it could be 'Sheila Ann Germaney' virosed...
