They're the true species. Iris tridentata isn't known to hybridize with other species, in part because it blooms in July when most other species bloom in May & June. And this particular Iris fulva is in the trade in USA as "fulva dwarf". It is very short, but otherwise completely typical of the species. I don't have the provenance of its heritage, though. The only wild (beardless) Iris in my collection that I have provenance for is my Iris brevicaulis because it came from a wild population about 15 miles away from my home.
