Iris laevigata, Fisch. (I. kaempferi, Sieb. I. albopurpurea, Baker). Japanese Iris. Figs. 1975, 1976. Lvs. thin, ensiform, 1-1 ½ ft- long: st. much overtopping the lvs., obscurely angled, 1-3-headed: pedicel ½ -2 in. long: tube short; limb blue, violet, etc., sometimes white, spreading, 3-5 in. across; outer segms. broadly ovate-oblong, obtuse; with a yellow spot on the claw; claw short, distinct; inner segms. oblanceolate, erect, conniving or spreading; style-branches with bifid, incurved lobes. E. Siberia and Japan. Intro, by Von Siebold, and flowered at Ghent in 1857. B.M. 6132; 7511. I.H. 5:157. F.S. 20:2073, 2074; 23:2431-6. Gt. 442; 29:1003. Gn. 9:476; 16:198; 21:424; 55, p. 105; 60, p. 349; 74, pp. 336, 363, 365; 75:226. R.H. 1890, p. 188. G.C. II. 2:47; III. 13:165, Gng. 1:256; F.E. 10:777. 169; 14:501;| 44:141. A.G. 19:596. 5:163; 6:339; 7:145. J.H. III. 28:205. F.M. 1874:137; 1880:403. G.W.2:66; 12:220 (var. alba). Gn.M. 5:343; 15:361. C.L.A.3:179. G. 19: 195. R.B. 36:245 (as I. japonica). G.F. 1:259 (adapted in Fig. 1975).—On account of the presence of a prominent ridge, formed by one or more veins along the middle of the lvs. of I. kaempferi, this species is sometimes considered as distinct from I. laevigata. If the species are distinct, the numerous cult, forms of Japanese irises are probably all derived from I. kaempferi since, at least so far as available material from forms cult, in the U. S. shows, all have the prominent midrib on the lvs. 85. verna, Linn. Dwarf, 6 in. high: rhizome wide- creeping: sheaths not splitting into fibers: Ivs. linear, slightly glaucous, 3-8 in. long: st. scarcely any, 1- headed: tube slender, 1H in. long; limb deep violet; outer segms. 1% in. long, obovate, narrowed into a slender yellow, slightly pubescent claw; inner segms. erect, smaller, violet. Shade, Ohio, Ky., Va. and south. L.B.C. 19:1855. B.M. 8159.—An anomalous species with the habit of a pogoniris but lacking the beard.
