You have some beauties there, Abbi. I like the apricot toned ones. What am I saying - I love them all!
You are right when you say that some of them are very similar to others, it's very confusing. I think there are endless varieties too.

Wow Abbi, you certainly have some lovely ones.

Oh, drool, Abbi - I am so jealous!

Lovely photos too Smile

What's this one Abbi?

And this one?

They are lovely!

Who would have thought there would be three pages of comments about bearded iris on a rose forum! lol!

...if only I could remember their names, Simon.

I know some of them because I noted them on photos...but not these two i'm afraid.

If they turn up in the ones i've brought with me, i'll send you a piece.

This one, called 'Luxuriant Lothario', is one I really want to find too (see link):

I've been looking at the GardenWeb iris photos - I've got serious iris Envy. LOL Shocked

FYI: Just be aware that iris can be covered by PBR too... I've been doing a little digging and it is actually violating the PBR to gift a piece of a plant with a current PBR. It's not violating the PBR to buy the plant and then gift it or to buy the plant and sell it again because you no longer want it... but giving a piece to someone and keeping the plant yourself is violating the terms of the PBR Loopy

You can use the same PBR link, in the links forum, to search for iris names too... though I have a feeling iris do it a little differently... need to do a bit more digging... Hmmmm

That link to "luxuriant Lothario" comes up with an unauthorised access message, Simon.

Cheryl, yours are lovely, I didn't realise you had so many.
I know one of yours is Epicentre.
One of the blue ones you gave me is in bud! (In the barrow)
