mini yellow iris
 

To continue our iris theme!
Today the ladies who latte pursed pond
plants and I found sisyrinchium californicum,
or a mini iris as it was described

The tag says it is good to zone 6, online says 8-10... time
will tell. It will be up on the deck in a watery container and can
be protected in the winter (zone 7a here).
Very pretty with the starlike yellow flowers.
Available in the UK from my interet wanderings

They close up at night... at least I hope that
is what they are doing and they aren't mortally
wounded or in plant shock or something!!
