Iris bucharica
Iris bucharica (Bokhara iris) is a bulbous flowering perennial plant in the 'Juno' section of the genus Iris. It is native to North East Afghanistan and Central Asia, but is widely cultivated in temperate regions. It grows to 25cm, with lanceolate leaves, each bulb producing several flowers in spring. The flowers are white with yellow falls.[1] Pure yellow forms are occasionally wrongly labelled as I. orchioides (a different species).[2]
This plant has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.[3]
