Reticulate Iris - 2016

[Florian_L]

Voici à quoi ressemble 'Pixie' chez moi

Effectivement, je pensais également plus à ce genre de coloris. Il semble qu'il y ai une petite erreur de nom/identification chez Chasw.

Ok, it seems there is a problem of correspondence between Iris 'Pixie' and Iris 'Pauline'  in Chasw garden.


@Steve Garvie : Very elegant iris !

RHS London Spring Plant Fair, Feb 16-17, 2016
Pristine (03-FQ-1) and Velvet Smile (87-CQ-3) were given Preliminary Commendations

'Velvet Smile' is rather lovely.

[David Nicholson]

'Velvet Smile' is rather lovely.

...... as are all of the others. Must be very worth while all of the work you have put into them Alan.

[Matt T]

'Velvet Smile' is rather lovely.

Even lovelier 'in the flesh', Maggi. Alan has so many hybrids showing new colours and patterns that there is literally something for everyone, no matter what your taste. 'Velvet Smile' is one of my favourites, but those in brown tones really appeal to me too.

but those in brown tones really appeal to me too.

The all look stunning - but the brown tones are really unusual - top quality display

In the first reply on this page (6) there was brief mention of a cultivar called 'Pixie.' Does anyone have a picture of this form they could post here please? I ask because for the first time ever, it is available in New Zealand, or listed as such anyway by a well-known firm but in their illustration it looks exactly like 'Harmony' in colour, size and shape, the yellow crest and even to the length of the foliage at flowering time. I'll order it anyway but it would be good to have something a little different from the mere 4 or 5 forms which we can get every year but no others.

[Maggi Young]

'Pixie' is reputed to be a sport of 'Harmony'  I believe.  It's got a bit more scent if I remember correctly.

Iris 'Blue Note'
Iris 'White Caucasus'
Iris 'Katharine Hodgkin'  there is a lot more of it coming up in a bergenia nearby but all the flowers have been eaten. I don't know how this little clump escaped.  It may not be there tomorrow

At home, it is fragrant
