Through spring and early summer, its narrow, light-green leaves frame graceful, slender flowers in creamy white to pale yellow, often marked with striking dark veins and a warm yellow eye. A valuable native perennial for pollinator-friendly landscapes, yellowleaf Iris provides forage for beneficial insects and shines in raingardens, rock gardens, perennial borders, meadow-style gardens, and sunny woodland edges, where its subtle beauty brings a touch of wild Pacific Northwest charm.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlant type\/canopy layer:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e deciduous, perennial, herbaceous plant\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize at maturity: \u003c\/strong\u003e6-12\u003cspan\u003e\" tall, 8-20\" wide\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLight requirements:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e full sun, part sun\/part shade\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMoisture requirements:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003emoist soil, but ok to dry out in the summer months, prefers well-drained\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBloom time:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003eApril-July \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth rate\/ease: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003emedium growth rate, moderately easy to grow\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWildlife support:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eflowers attract and provide nectar for hummingbirds, adult butterflies, bees and other insect pollinators; overall plant attracts and supports beneficial and other pest-eating insects\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNative habitat\/range:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ecan be found growing in open forests and woodlands, at low to mid elevations up to 2000m, across from mid-western and southern Oregon and into northern California.

In a habitat garden, use it in native perennial borders, meadow plantings, rock gardens, or along sunny woodland edges, where its graceful foliage and delicate flowers can be woven among other Pacific Northwest natives. Give it good drainage, avoid consistently soggy soil and water somewhat regularly while establishing. Once established, it is perfectly fine to dry out during the summer months, though watering it infrequently will keep a lush look, longer. A light layer of mulch can help moderate moisture without burying the rhizomes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003ePhoto Credit 1 (\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.inaturalist.org\/observations\/353165919\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eflower closeup\u003c\/a\u003e): \u003cspan\u003e© Dee Shea Himes\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by\/4.0\/\"\u003esome rights reserved\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e(CC-BY)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003ePhoto Credits 2-4 (\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.inaturalist.org\/observations\/359146752\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eside view\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.inaturalist.org\/observations\/359146752\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ethree flowers\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.inaturalist.org\/observations\/215435205\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ehabit\u003c\/a\u003e): \u003cspan\u003e© Merlla McLaughlin\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by\/4.0\/\"\u003esome rights reserved\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e(CC-BY)\u003c\/a\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Sparrowhawk Native Plants","offers":[{"title":"3.5\" Pot","offer_id":49081377751257,"sku":null,"price":5.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0234\/6031\/5216\/files\/Iris.chrysophylla-flowercloseup_iNat.jpg?v=1786556768","url":"https:\/\/sparrowhawknativeplants.com\/products\/yellowleaf-iris","provider":"Sparrowhawk Native Plants","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
