Not yet classified. Collected in China by Arlen Hill of Keeping It Green Nursery.

I put this in the Sibiricae group and am confident that is where it belongs. More, it has the flower and foliage of a 40 chromosome Sino-Siberian, though it is shorter and the foliage is much finer than any of the other "40s" I grow. This beauty blooms about 16" high and has a dark purple flower. 2022 will see its genetics mixed in with my breeding program as the size of the plant is more adaptable to the small plot gardener.

Please see our Growing Instructions for Sino-Siberian irises to see if this iris is a good fit for your garden.
