Another Iris question
 

I've seen lovely pics of Iris germanica 'Jasper Agate', and would like
to get hold of one ... the plant, not the pic!.

It's not in Plantfinder, and most sites I see are American. Does anyone
here know of a supplier in the UK?

The breeding of "red" TBi's has moved on since 1943 when that one was bred,
take a look at those on this site and you may find something better and
actually available.

Thanks very much, Bob. Some very drool-worthy irises there (added to
wish list!) and site bookmarked. However, I had a particular reason for
my interest in I. 'Jasper Agate', so I'll still be looking out for it.
