This is an Iris pseudopumila x an aril but the seeds did not show any aril characteristic so it was probably a bee pod. The standards always flop open.

Hi Pat. The seeds only look aril from aril pod parent. If your order is correct you're
saying the pod was pseudopumila.

Yes John that is correct. I will try a couple of crosses today as it is such a glorious day.

This iris is flowering amidst a few other species and the only one that it can be is Iris cypriana 01C045 ex MBS
The stem is about 3-4ft long and the last photo only shows about half of the stem. Standing up there like a flagpole :)

More from the garden - first is the tall growing 'Manon' with small white flowers stitched with purple - very elegant! I got this from Pat Toolan a couple of years ago and it seems to be enjoying life in Redesdale!
A couple of Medians:
Arianna
Aqua Taj
and one whose name I've forgotten!
cheers

Pretty sure that 'Manon' is Iris Swertii. Came across something recently (which I can't find now) that showed its small bloom size in relation to stem etc.
Iris imbricata
PT9922 - arilbred
the beautiful "Super Yellow" arilbred cross.
