    This is the problem with the Dinnerplate series of Japanese irises. There are two distinctly different irises being sold as "Ice Cream" as shown in our database. Nor are they registered irises under the names Dinnerplate gave them. There has been discussion in the AIS about Ice Cream and the problem of it not always being the same iris.
