Dirk , I too admire your I. histrioides ,col. Soganli  Pass . I looks very much like the commercial
histrioides 'Lady Beatrix Stanley'.

Otto, you are right.
Possibly comes Lady Beatrix Stanley also from this region. But this wild form flowers about 2 weeks later and has even more compact blossom.

To my eye Iris reticulata 'White Caucasus' has a blue tinge but the camera sees it as white.   I thought 'Finola' was white apart  from the blue lines on the falls but when seen next to 'White Caucasus' it looks more cream.
'Frank Elder'  a bit chewed

Agree with you 100% Roma, I'm always banging on about it. It annoys me when sellers describe it as "Crystelline White"
