the forms I have grow like a setosa or sibirica Davey, not such dense clumps as most garden sibiricas. Avon Bulbs were stocking it.
Cheers Peter.

If anyone, like me, finds Gerhards Iris nertchinska a new one on them, I looked it up in Mathew.

Iris nertschinskia, he says, is synonymous with Iris sanguinea in Section Sibiricae, a plant of mountainous meadows, open wet plains and light deciduous woods, ocurring in south Eastern Russia from the east of lake Baikal eastwards to the Ussuri region into Korea and Japan.

Difficult to tell, I would have thought Ron, without seeing the leaves. Mathew says sanguinea differs from sibirica in having the leaves equal to or even longer than the unbranched flower stems!

Lovely Wim. I've tried it twice from Exchange seed and both times it turned out to be pseudacorus.
