Iris sari 'Manissadjani' is flowering here now. I think he's virused, though...so I'll have to restart from seed this year.

Great picture Luc!

Here one of my Highlights for this season: Iris nectarifera
It was not easy to establish and the first two years after planting it stayed very small compared to now. This species has been introduced several times in cultivation but it seems to be tricky in bulbframes or greenhouses as most grower I know lost it before they got a flower. There are not many information about this species and the best (and only) picture of the flower I could find in Internet has not the best resolution (http://www.agaclar.net/forum/showthread.php?t=3320 -Nr.10). The second picture I know is one taken by Brian Mathew (Backcover ASI yearbook 2006). The flower he showed has standards of the same colour as the falls.
The colouration of the plant here is similar to those which can occure in Iris sari but veining is something thinner and in difference it produces stolons.

Edit: Iris heylandiana is an other hardly known plant (from Irak) which is said to be related to Iris nectarifera, it also produces stolons - searching for pictures I found this one:  http://www.smcallister.com/images/species/heylandiana.jpg

Congratulations Hans!
It indeed seems a very close species to Iris sari...but still looking amazing!

How can I tell I nectarifera apart from sari? I  have a plant which is supposed to be nectarifera which has never flowerd, and a form of sari which looks like your picture.
