The auranitica photo makes me quite sad as I (and anybody else in his/her right mind) won't be able to see the habitat again soon  :'(

A sad truth, Thomas.
Have you seen them at the locus classicus in the past ? ( http://www.hort.net/lists/iris-photos/jun04/msg00280.html - I wondered if this was you? )

Yes, that's me. I was there about 6 times between 2003-ish and 2011, and once at the Tel Jafnee habitat (the type habitat of f.wilkiana, without finding it).

The area there is quite safe, as far as I know, but it is an island of tranquility in the Syrian chaos. No way getting there without crossing combat zones.

It is so distressing that still there are such terrible areas of conflict in the world.  One feels powerless in such a case but thank goodness that plantlovers can communicate, co-operate and co-exist in harmony.
A small consolation, but a straw to be grasped......

Look forward to reading about your trip Hans.
Yes Thomas and Maggi it is so sad that men cannot agree and it is the innocents who suffer. The plants may be in even more danger as they will possibly be picked and sold by desperate people to be able to live once there is a semblance of peace.

Janis, i wish your good luck with your Oncos.
Here some new in flower today:
Iris acutiloba ssp.lineolata
  ''   barnumae
  ''   paradoxa f.choschab

Dirk
Does your barnumae have yellow hairs on the fall - if not the plant is probably polackii.
