As a northern transplant, I miss the Spring floral displays of tulips, daffodils, hyacinths and iris. I have come to love the Louisiana Iris as a substitute. They come in a variety of colors and love to be in the ponds. They add wonderful color and texture to the pond garden. This rogue plant made its way to a totally different area of another pond, much to my pleasant surprise.
Hi, Mike. Nice picture. That could be a native Florida "Louisiana" iris, or one from Louisiana. I would be the former. You might be interested in an article on the native irises on Florida that is on my website. You can go to the Species page at www.zydecoirises.com or download the pdf directly at http://zydecoirises.com/Species/Florida/FloridaIrises.pdf
