We are growing 12 cultivars of Iris x pseudata (pseudacorus x ensata), and
they are all great.  So far, one of my favorites is the nearly 5' tall Iris
'Chance Beauty'.  I had given up on I. pseudacorus because it seeded so bad,
but no such problem with these hybrids.

Diane:

Thank you for sharing the link to photo's of all of the cultivars.
Within 24 hours I've gone from unaware of any I. p. hybrids to trying to
decide what to remove to make room for them.
