    Hi,
    I recently helped a friend tidy up the garden of his deceased mother's house. In it I found a load of rhizomatous irises that had bloomed some months before and which had a few seed heads intact. So I snaffled the seeds...
    The Irises were moderately large with leaves of ~ 60cm/2ft and flower stems about 90cms /3ft. Leaves were 'normal' iris leaves.
    I didn't have my camera so couldn't photograph the irises, but here is a pic of the seeds.
    Since I would much like to give the seeds the appropriate germination treatment, can any of you enthusiasts, give any informed guess as to what they might be?

    I know it's a long shot, but hey, you are a clever bunch!

    Mike
