Iris bucharica

Not seen this Iris before......pretty one.

I have plenty of leaves but no sign of buds yet.

love the yellow of it.

I believe it's bulbous, Dd. I got it at a rare plant fair some years ago.

it has a fleshy swollen basal root type thingy. how technical is that! bulbous fits it fine but its not a bulb in the true sense.

Right, thanks both for the info......

Oooh-err, Sbg! Very technical!!!

I'm off to a rare plant fair today, and hope to find another one there, bulbous thingy and all. lol.

Hope you enjoy and purse enjoys the exercise. in, out, in, out [of pocket] :o)

They didn't have an Iris bucharica. :-(( I did get some great plants, though! :-))))) Eva came with me...

Beautiful photograph.
