Pacific Coast Iris query

20 years ago

Background: about four years ago I bought a deliciously coloured PC Iris which flowered then decided to become compost. Before it departed it left a seedpod. I planted up the seeds and ended up with six survivors. All of them have either soft yellow, or yellow and cream flowers and none of them is as tall as the original.

Question: if I 'back-crossed' them would I regain the colouring? If I used Iris innominata as a pod parent? Or vice versa?

Or should I stop now and just buy a packet of seed??? ;-)
