  • I couldn't believe my eyes when this first appeared in 1999. It was the very first F2 sxd hybrid to bloom, and I couldn't have asked for anything more beautiful!!
  • It's bud first appears pale yellow like I. winogradowii
  • Its rate of increase has been good, but not quite as good as I had originally predicted. In particular the number bulblets being produced is much lower
  • It's currently under test in Holland and initial propagation work is being done in a lab
