Introducing the stunning Golden Yellow Iris Pseudacorus, an exquisite marginal plant that thrives in shallow water and brings a burst of vibrant color to your pond. This hardy aquatic iris is ideal for planting along the edges or on shallow shelves, where its bright yellow flowers can truly shine.
Known as the only native aquatic iris, it flourishes in boggy soil, making it a fantastic choice for those looking to beautify their garden ponds with minimal effort. This plant can tolerate waterlogged conditions but should be planted no deeper than four inches beneath the water’s surface.
Benefits: The Golden Yellow Iris Pseudacorus is not just visually appealing; it also plays a role in supporting local wildlife. Its vigorous growth in shallow areas encourages biodiversity, while its historical significance as the inspiration for the Royal French emblem, Fleur-de-lys, adds a touch of heritage to your garden.
