I held my tongue on this... here in Central - South Texas, these make
HUGE clumps of almost grassy, yet stiff, foliage, with stalks of
single blooms of a white-cream, three petaled, with splotches. They
are in full bloom and in wide availability here in Central Texas.
I prefer the Moraea (I think...I'm always getting the two confused--
I prefer the one called "African Iris").
