Iris pseudacorus var bastardii - 2014

I've only every seen blue iris, are yellow ones common?

3 Jun, 2014

The bright yellow ones can be seen beside rivers or ponds in Britain. This pale yellow version is quite unusual.

hope it spreads! do they self-sow?

3 Jun, 2014

No, they don't self sow, but the roots run quite aggressively. It is planted in a basket in the pond, and needs dividing every three or four years.

ah, right! i could see the pot but thought it was close by the water rather than in it.
