This little guy came in a pot and had not even started growing yet when I got it. It is very small for a iris and is starting to bloom right now. I have never had a tag for it and would love to give it a name.
Thanks!!

Well, I will state the obvious that it appears to be a dwarf Iris...

Can you post a pic of the foliage and growth habit?

Your first two pics plus description led me to dwarf iris...pretty obvious now! LOL!

Variety can be difficult to pinpoint...there can be some variation in color...

just an offer...
This it just getting way way too big, so if anyone wants some for free, please email me directly! I need to get rid of some, but dont want to throw it away.
Just shipping is all I would ask for.. USPS, slower boat...
Just thought I would toss it out there.

Have a great day
