Seeds of Iris foetidissima  (Iris foetidissima (Stinking Iris))

The ripening seeds of Iris foetidissima var. Citrine are identical to the common blue. Prefer the name roast beef plant as the smell of the leaves is not unpleasant!

Not deliberately, they self sow and Citrine, which is yellow comes true from seed.
