Yellow Walking Iris (Trimezia martinicensis): Fan-Shaped Fans & Yellow Blooms

Yellow Walking Iris (Trimezia martinicensis, syn. Neomarica longifolia) is a clump-forming, fan-leaved perennial that produces a succession of short-lived, bright yellow, iris-like flowers with brown markings on the falls. After flowering, plantlets form at the stem tips, which bend to the ground and root — hence "walking iris." Thrives in shade and moisture.
