Hans quote :o - Dirk and Rafa - impressive plants and pictures - never have seen a white I. winogradowii :o ::)
Rafa, 2 very nice pictures of I. winogradowii forma alba -but is it really the white form ? I think it is a hybrid with another ret. ,but which one? note the narrower falls, also the faint blue shading and spots on the falls. I grow it too ,and also got my bulb from Ruksans

Hello Otto, Rafa,

Concerning I. winogradowii forma alba - I remember reading on the impressive site (don't remember on which page though  ::)) from Allan Mcmurtrie that he also has very serious doubts about that form.  He does not seem te believe it is pure winogradowii either...

Hello Luc, Rafa and Otto,
it really seams to be a hybrid. I had a look at Ruksans 2007 catalogue  - he mentions about his Iris winogradowii "Alba": "...Ì am afraid that this is some hybrid as I never got seeds of it...."

that really is a pristine winogradowii Michael.

Nice show Dominique apart from a couple in the greenhouse mine are all over for this year. You have some varieties I have not seen before.

Beautiful iris images from everybody.
The winogradowii is very lovely - a nice pale primula yellow.
Mine in the garden are still sleepy... :-\
