Oncocyclus question
« on: September 29, 2014, 09:49:14 PM »
In moving arils around last year I lost the label of this small growing aril iris.
It may even be a species cross.

Yes Pat, looks like a primary hybrid..but not easy to name the parents...
One of them could be from susiana group and why not paradoxa for the blue ?? but the falls doesn't look like paradoxa hybrid...
It's quite difficult to name some onco species without knowing the origin, so, with hydrids....  :) it's almost impossible
Anyway, it's a nice X onco flower  ;D

Thanks for your thoughts Fred. I will now go back to all my planting plans and work out what it might be as there are quite a few rhizomes so I have had it a few years to build up this much.

No iberica in any of the crosses I grow as it is so difficult to grow here Peter. Sorry about delay in answering.
