Surely not Iris vicaria?
« on: November 28, 2013, 06:33:13 AM »
Grew this from seed from NARGS Seedex 2009 (donor from the UK) as Iris vicaria "Sina".
Doesn't appear to be correct but the foliage was iris-like; does anyone else think that they could be Hermodactylus?
cheers

Maybe? The Hermodactylus foliage is rather like that of I. reticulata. Oh yes, Hermodactylus tuberosus is now (again) I. tuberosa. (ref TH).
