6 years ago when I startet to creat a database for iris. We have more then 60 nonamed iris (NOIDs) in relation to 148 named iris in our garden. The idee was to list all iris with photos and programming a possibility to compare pictures side by side. (At this time I don't know, that it gives more than 1000 iris varieties. ) With help of this database I can organize our own iris and fill in the matching images. Then I make hundreds of hundreds photos in parks with iris collections in some citys in Switzerland, in Paris, Orléans and Jouy-en-Josas, by Countess of Zeppelin, Cayeux, Bianco and others. On the basis of the prommed function in my database I can find the name from about 50% of our NOIDs in the first year. Now
we have more than 950 named iris varities in our garden and additionally
about 230 NOIDs to identify. In the database are insert (july 2012) ~
60000 iris and 25000 photos, included 3800 photos made by me. This photos
can used royalty free. The other pictures are from friends, breeders and
dealers worldwide. This photos can only used for comparison and not for
others. |
This database is the attempt to collect as much as
possible pictures and infos about iris. It should not replace the AIS register and is primarily intended for private use and should help:

The database is still in the testing phase and is probably available for sale from the end of August 2012 at a price of 49 Euro (currently only in German). If interested, please send me just a Mail f.lehmann@irisparadise.com |
