Photos / SoundsWhatYellow Iris (Iris pseudacorus)Observermorganbr0012DescriptionAlong S Wilson Hollow Rd (Northern side), growing in ditch of the Rust family property. Homeowners stated that they planted this species of Iris in their yard (did not specify which of the three main clusters they planted, though I suspect this is not from the original cluster as it is by the driveway but in a deep portion of the ditch and largely obscured based on the microtopography and near the very edge of the property). They claimed to have obtained a propagule/starter from a friend (whom they could not recall) and that they noticed it was readily spreading in their ditch. Unsure of initial date of planting. |
