You need to contact Jennifer Hewitt, Davey. She is the registrar and also a specialist in sibiricas.

'Cloudy Skies' is indeed a TB, registered by Opal Brown in 1993.

Yemen, what a country ... Haraz mountains, Socotra, Sana'a, Hadramaut, the empty quarter.... a country of stunning, mind altering beauty...and the friendliest of people.

This Iris was grown from seed as Iris cretica and was rather neglected in my greenhouse for a few years. Last year I put it in a larger pot and placed it in the cold frame.  About two weeks ago I noticed flower buds developing.  The stem got longer and longer and eventually the buds opened today.  I think it is Iris sibirica.

I don't know... Bought them along with a heap of other rhizomes last year from either Klehm or Kathe. It did not grow too well but has a few flowers.

By the way, did you ever visit Garchinger Heide and see them? I talked to a botanist from Garching town, and he considered it an urban tale...

Greetings,

Thomas.
