Purple iris ID, please

Someone planted a couple of these in my garden while I was at work a few years ago, and they have multiplied. Very pretty, but what is the variety?

Maybe Unfinished Business? Get a photo of that and compare. They look like ones I have and someone id'd them as UB. Oldie but goodie!!

After your house they came over here.

Not 'Unfinished Business' --- it's a SA with lav-white standards..

Yours looks like a bitone historic and close to 'Amas'. 'Alcazar' would be another to look up. 'Ann Newhard' & 'Germaine Perthuis' --- looks like their beards are solid yellow to the outer end. Can't tell from the photo about the beards on yours. 'Buto' - not sure if hafts match. 'Mauna Loa' photographs more "pinkly" but otherwise very close. 'Tamerlan' is a possibility as well as 'William A. Setchell'.

Getting close-ups of the beard and haft area would help, full on and side view. Also a full on shot of one bloom and a side shot of one bloom. Good luck.
