Superb form of I. stenophylla Luc.  Reminds me of I. stenophylla ssp. alisonii.  According to B. Mathew, in ssp. alisonii (compared with ssp. stenophylla) the leaves are more numerous (6-10) with undulate margins and broad..  Flowers have shorter tube with darker and more prominent spotting and streaking on the falls.

I wish I could take photographs like that! I said to my wife that I need a better camera; she said we need a new mattress!

A beautiful form of Iris persica (persicum?) - a dream, Kris.

 Luc, You have a very fine form of the Iris stenophylla. I agree to Cyril. It is similar to the ssp. alisonii.

 With me just starting to bloom Iris narbutii. At the bloom of the other Junos I have to wait quite a while.

I. nicolai, I. persica, I. narbutii and I. kuschakewiczii are all splendid junos.   Worth seeing again and again, especially the different forms.  Thanks for posting Steve, Kris and Eberhard.  The I. narbutii has a flower with more purple than other forms I have seen.
