Description
Iris versicolor is a native aquatic perennial found in wetlands, marshes, and along streambanks in eastern North America. It grows 2€“3 feet tall, with sword-like leaves and elegant blue to violet flowers blooming in late spring to early summer. It thrives in wet soils and tolerates periodic flooding.
Blue flag iris is commonly used in wetland restoration and water filtration projects due to its ability to stabilize soil and improve water quality. Its vibrant flowers attract pollinators, including bees and butterflies, while its dense foliage provides habitat for small aquatic creatures. This species is an excellent choice for rain gardens, pond edges, and naturalized water features.
