Thanks Bill & Harold - Now I'm sort of confused. I thought Louisana Iris
were a 'species'. If I. fulva is a species, then what is the correct word
to describe Louisiana Iris.
Also is there a website where I can learn more about Louisiana Iris?

>I agree with Bill that the unknown iris is I. fulva. Fulva is a species of
Louisiana iris. LAs prefer wet, acid beds rich in organic matter. They can
take full sun but can also take some shade. Under a tree is not the best
location for an LA.

Can anyone help me identify the species of this iris.
I'm pretty sure this is iris fulva, an iris native to the USA. Also, you
will find it to be a very adaptable plant. Will grow in shade, sun, and
most
soil types. Likes moist soil but will survive dry periods.
