Re: Indigenous Iris of Pakistan

Hello,
I love these plants. I think the white and violet ones are probably both Iris kashmiriana, and I wonder if perhaps the yellow and orange ones are hybrids of Iris kashmiriana with Iris variegata, which it is my understanding is introduced into the region from Europe (?).
I would love to trade for plants of these if it is possible, especially the white and violet ones. I think they would grow very well here in New Mexico, and I'd like to be able to plant them at our botanic garden here in Albuquerque. However, I'm not sure how to contact members of the forum. My work email at the botanic garden in Albuquerque New Mexico is dferguson@cabq.gov
I am enjoying exploring your postings.
