Last year, I planted two more varieties of Louisiana iris-- 'Ann Chowning' (red) and 'Black Gamecock' (very dark purple).  The former didn't bloomed this year (still getting settled in, I imagine), but one or two 'Black Gamecock' did.  It's not quite as dark as I'd hoped, but it's still a beautiful flower with a slightly more bluish purple than 'Jeri'-- and a bigger yellow signal.
