This would be Iris missouriensis. It needs excellent drainage
and ample moisture in spring. I have killed many trying to grow it
in Missouri. If we have enough moisture we don't have the
drainage. I have seen it growing in run off of snowmelt in the
mountains. If your grandmother lives near it's home she at least
has a chance.
PS it always helps to give a clue as to the area you live in order
to advise growing conditions, It's a big country.
