We have had so many requests from visitors who saw this flowering in our garden that we finally divided the clump. This selection of Louisiana iris makes a spreading clump to 6' wide in 3 years. In midsummer, the clump is topped with velvety purple flowers, with each fall (lower petals) highlighted by a streak of yellow. All Louisiana iris prefer wet to very moist sites to perform their best.
