Hi Everyone! I have just had the same experience and it's March 2024. Evidently the iris supplier has never updated their information. My sister works at Wal-Mart and will buy plants occasionally because they get marked down. We use them for landscaping knowing they may not be correct on the off chance that they are. We have over 300 named iris that are planted and mapped so these do not get put in the same place. Anyway, I found this thread and from my pictures that I took 15 minutes ago, my iris is definitely not Dancing on Air, unless the cultivar has evolved and switched colors! But I'm really happy with this one because both the yellow and purple have halos and the plant is at least 36 inches high with seven buds! The first bloom is very low so I will wait for another to see if it has a fragrance. Even if it's a NOID I think it's very pretty. I also have Kevins' Theme and Lullaby of Spring that may not bloom until next year but they may be similar. Anyone recognize one like this?
