One of my own Iris Crosses. An unnamed Blue x Stepping Out or vice versa. Much better scent than Jane Phillips, and a more modern form.

Gg, Scented Step is one of the keepers moved to the front garden, so got its own entry in my file.
It's exciting to see if I get something different from new crosses. I've 9 new crosses so far this year, some are just similar to a parent.
How are your Gombault Irises doing? I've still some yet to flower for the first time, spent their time enlarging their rhizomes.

I crossed the parents the other way, and the offspring are similar but a brighter blue, also with a scent.

See who else is growing Iris germanica (Orris).
See who else has plants in genus Iris.

Quite an achievement if the scent is better than Jane. Lovely shade too.
