An unknown iris
« on: May 02, 2025, 12:34:44 AM »
A friend sent pictures of a mislabeled iris.  Can anyone recognize it?  Is it a species, do you think?

The sneaker is for size comparison.   :) 
Thanks!

Hi Claire,

the Iris Looks like Iris ruthenica, maybe var. nana.

Greetings

Yes, it resembles I. ruthenica.  I grow I. ruthenica nana and the falls are a different shape.  That's what stymied me.
