We hope you enjoy this gallery of photos of historic irises. Included are some of the most commonly found old varieties, that seem to be of such vigor as to thrive most anywhere even in neglect. Members have access to far more extensive galleries of iris photos, vintage catalog scans, and thousands of varietal mugshots sorted by decade of registration. This is just one of many benefits of membership in HIPS.
