Brown Iris for ID.
\nPhotographed in a garden<\/span> at Darjiling in Apr-09.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Some Garden variety I hope!!<\/p>\n

\n

Yes … Some cultivar of I. germanica<\/i><\/p>\n

\n

Thank You\u00a0… for ID. In fact the plant was located in a well maintained garden. It must be a garden variety.<\/span><\/p>\n

Appears like it from pix at: http:\/\/www.pbase.com\/kathy0000\/image\/43934035<\/span><\/a>,
\nthough other pix of Iris fulva<\/i> (Copper Iris<\/b>) at http:\/\/davesgarden.com\/guides\/pf\/go\/60460\/<\/span><\/a> & Missouri Plants<\/span>\u00a0differ in colouration. Is this because of different varieties?<\/p>\n

Iris-germanica? from my garden in Ritterhude<\/a>:
\nLast year I had sent a foto which was identified as Iris-germanica<\/i> or beared german iris<\/b>. The one from last year is not flowering yet, but another one has two flowers and tow buds.
\nIs this also Iris-germanica<\/i>?
\nFotos taken last week (KW 19 – 2011)\u00a0(15.5.11)<\/span><\/div>\n
\n
\n

Yes … One of the commonest Irises in Kashmir<\/span>. Many species of Iris are grown in graveyards in Kashmir, and locally known as MAZAAR MOND<\/b> (MAZAAR: Graveyard, MOND: root or swollen underground part, mostly rhizome in this case; Mond is also the Kashmiri name of Knol khol or Kohlrabi).<\/span><\/p>\n

Is this ornamental or wild?<\/div>\n

As the plant was located in a well cultivated and developed garden of a resort, it appears that it an ornamental variety.<\/span><\/div>\n

\nThis <\/span>Iris<\/i> sp. was shot <\/span>from Central Potato Research Institute, Shimla<\/span>.. please help in id.. at least one of the two plants posted can be <\/span>Iris kumaonensis<\/i>.. if not this one..<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n

Looks like I. germanica<\/i>. I kemaonensis<\/i> is a very small plant with stem hardly visible above group and leaves much narrow.<\/span> We luckily found and confirmed it while climbing towards Chandrashila Chandrashila above Tungnath on this trip.
\nWhile photographing Iris never miss on beard (if present), length of perianth tube, leaves and rootstock.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
\n

Thanks a lot Sir, hopefully you will soon share <\/b>Iris kemaonensis<\/i> from the trip.. will try to keep a close record of\u00a0<\/i>the aspects you have mentioned for this plant, whenever I see this the next time.<\/p>\n

I agree with … These are orchid flowers Iris. Probably the petals have burnt up or matured. There are about three species of Iris in Himalayas. I will post my pictures taken near Rohtang Pass soon.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Thank you for your helpful response.<\/div>\n
I remember some images my brother took of a similar flower from the Shimla Flower Show last year and it was labelled Copper Iris. The ones I saw and photographed in Leh were fresh – the yellow of the petals was not because they were dry.
\nLook forward to your images from Rohtang Pass.<\/span><\/div>\n
\n
\n

Iris, more probably I. germanica<\/i>. It is commonly grown on graveyards in Kashmir valley and Ladakh.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Thank you, … Its interesting to know that I.germanica is grown in graveyards, though the one I photographed was in a hotel garden. Any idea why they are grown in graveside?<\/p>\n

\n

Several species of Iris including I. kashmiriana, I. germanica, I. aurea, I. spurea<\/i> and I. nepalensis<\/i> are commonly grown in Kashmir to decorate graveyards.<\/p>\n
