Roland, I have been told it is more common in the SE, that is around Cagliari. However in the period this would be the only bulbous species you can find

Hans, is Iris planifolia native on the Balearics too? I have them in flower now, in several shades of blue. This species if found in Sicily and Sardinia in Italy
Angelo, Iris planifolia is not native on the Balearic Islands, but grows fine here.

Not a single Juno more to the north
I found ambrosinia , arisarum , arum nigrum , Drimia
it seems there are plenty Cyclamen repandum
but they where still sleeping

We swapped B&B now 40 km north of Cagliari
we have a look if we can see here Iris planifolia
and we try to see a red leaved Ambrosinia
I will post a picture when we find one

New Juno Iris just was described by Guner and Tony Hall - Iris peshmeniana. I offered it in my last catalogue as Iris species nova and used its picture for front cover.
Here some pictures of it made in my collection and in wild - plants in seeds are pictured by me during my last visit at its locus classicus, picture with Iris peshmeniana in flowers at locus classicus I got from Tony Hall, but I don't know who made this picture.

Well I am back home
We did not find a single Iris planifolia found north of Cagliari
also no red leaved Ambrosina
on Facebook you can see the leaf-forms we found from Ambrosina

https://www.facebook.com/pages/Bulborum/452518118130496?sk=photos_albums

no time for visiting the city to see the Iris planifolia there
there must be plenty around the castle
so something to do for the next time

The where hundred thousands of them
maybe you are right
but there where no special ones to see (and to dig up)
The interesting sites I keep secret
just for my friends who I trust
