"24 January on your picture, David; our JS Dijt is in the bulb house and will not flower for week or two yet! But no, the iris shown in a much darker, reddish purple. Thanks for the suggestion.

'Pauline' is possible, I will have to check around to see if it is located elsewhere in the garden; I have not purchsed 'Pixie' yet so I will discount that, Maggie.

After sending other larger pics to David N for comparison to his plant.... my unknown blue is somewhat paler than his 'Cantab', so if that's 'Cantab' then mine isn't!  Any other ideas as to identity anyone?

I took many more reticulate Irises on slide than digital, so, until I scan them in, I have decided to start a new thread 'Irises of Iran'  I hope you will like them
