It is often the larger companies people seem to be having more problems with.

Excellent 
Thanks for doing that, Hristo, what a fantastic reference

A wonderful montage, Hristo. Thank you very much for this. May I put my name forward to recieve a larger version.
One small correction to a typo - I think it should be 'SeWan Lake' rather than 'Sevan'.

Hristo,

wow, the thing just keeps getting better.  Thanks, and I would love to get the full-size version.  May make a nice poster for my wall!

As to SeWan vs Sevan, as this is an English language piece, I would tend to using the 'v', as many will simply mispronounce the 'w', as if it were English and say sue-en, instead of zay-va(r)n.  A common problem with translations.  Maybe the other spelling in parenthesis for completeness.  Do we know the original introduction spelling?  Technically, that is the correct one, regardless of the spelling/translation.

Last Rare Plants catalogue has 'Sevan'


A big YES PLEASE for a larger version Chris and thanks for the work you have done on this.

Chris, it occurs to me that as your internet connection is not the best, it may be easier for you to send me a full size file of the chart and then I can send it out to those requesting it....would that be a help to you?

[Carlo]

Maybe it can be put up full size on someone's web page? I'm happy to make it available at BotanicalGardening.com if a more appropriate place isn't found. I WOULD like to have a full size copy myself! (the reticulates are blooming here NOW...)

.. or perhaps make it available for download from the SRGC server?

Excellent work Chris.  Many thanks.

[Hristo]

Thanks to all for kind words, I will pass the file onto Maggi ( Thanks Guardian Angel! )
Maybe if anyone has pics to contibute tthis year I will update and re-post, otherwise I
Know I will be able to add another 10 cultivars to the montage next year!

Janis lists Iris paradoxa 'Sevan' spelled with a 'v' presumably from the same original place name

Many thanks for posting the montage of reticulate Iris

Maggi

I would like a copy of the large version - thanks

[Lvandelft]

Chris, as Iris ret. Pauline is in color and shape almost the same as Purple Gem,
I like to add a picture of Pauline here.
May be you want to change it in your composition?


Iris reticulata Pauline

[Hristo]

Thanks for the further pic of 'Pauline', from both pics received it would appear whilst very similar 'Pauline' is a somewhat richer and darker colour than 'Purple Gem'. The 'Purple Gem' is my own picture and I have compared the colour imagry represented on my computer with the plant in the garden.
Many thanks, every pic helps to 'improve' the picture!
