Iris magnifica

Hi Adam,

We collected some 20 different species of Tulipa, but not T.
wilsoniana (I think that T. wilsonii is an invalid name). In any
event, according to Kew it comes from Turkmenistan and Iran and
according to Botschantzeva it is "endemic to Turkmenistan". In any
event, we were not in either, but in Kazakhstan.

Best regards,
David Victor
