Iris pseudacorus (yellow flag, yellow iris, water flag) is a species<\/span><\/a> in the genus<\/span><\/a> Iris<\/i>, of the family<\/span><\/a> Iridaceae.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

It is <\/span>native<\/span><\/a> to Europe, western Asia and northwest Africa.<\/span><\/div>\n
Its <\/span>specific epithet<\/span><\/a>, meaning “false acorus,” refers to the similarity of its leaves to those of Acorus calamus<\/a><\/i>, as they have a prominently veined mid-rib and sword-like shape.<\/span><\/div>\n
It is an <\/span>herbaceous<\/span><\/a> flowering <\/span>perennial plant<\/span><\/a>, growing to 1\u20131.5 centimetres (0.39\u20130.59 in) (or a rare 2 m) tall, with erect <\/span>leaves<\/span><\/a> up to 90 centimetres (35 in) long and 3 centimetres (1.2 in) broad. The flowers are bright yellow, 7\u201310 metres (23\u201333 ft) across, with the typical iris form. The fruit is a dry <\/span>capsule<\/span><\/a> 4\u20137 centimetres (1.6\u20132.8 in) long, containing numerous pale brown seeds. I. pseudacorus<\/i> grows best in very wet conditions, and is often common in <\/span>wetlands<\/span><\/a>, where it tolerates submersion, low <\/span>pH<\/span><\/a>, and anoxic soils. The plant spreads quickly, by both <\/span>rhizome<\/span><\/a> and water-dispersed seed. It fills a similar <\/span>niche<\/span><\/a> to that of Typha<\/a><\/i> and often grows with it, though usually in shallower water. While it is primarily an aquatic plant, the rhizomes can survive prolonged dry conditions.<\/span><\/div>\n
It is widely planted in <\/span>temperate<\/span><\/a> regions as an ornamental plant,[1]<\/span><\/a><\/sup> with several <\/span>cultivars<\/span><\/a> selected for <\/span>bog garden<\/span><\/a> planting.<\/span><\/div>\n
In some regions it has escaped from cultivation to establish itself as an <\/span>invasive<\/span><\/a> aquatic plant<\/span><\/a> which can create dense, monotypic stands, outcompeting other plants in the ecosystem. Where it is invasive, it is tough to remove on a large scale. Even ploughing the rhizomes is often ineffective. It has been banned in some areas but is still widely sold in others for use in gardens<\/span>.<\/div>\n

\n<\/span>It is in the pond<\/span><\/div>\n
\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n

Yes … It is Iris pseudacorus<\/b>, also known as Water flag, Pale-yellow iris, Yellow flag, Yellow iris, Yellow water iris, Yellow flag iris
\n<\/b>By the way species of Iris are commonly known as Flag or Iris and not as Lily.<\/span><\/p>\n

Thank you …,<\/span><\/div>\n
many Iris-flowers are called …Schwertlilie. See http:\/\/de.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Schwertlilien<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n
So I thought flowers of this type are Lilie and the sci.name<\/span><\/a> is Iris ….
\n<\/span>Thanks for the explaination<\/span><\/div>\n
\n
\n

the root of these plant have medicinal values. If i am not wrong juice of the root is used to induce vomitting. the root contain very high amount of tannins.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

\n<\/span>Parhaps that is why the grass snake visited my pond a few weeks ago.<\/span><\/div>\n

\ngrass snake visited my garden to swallow the grass frogs from the pond, and perhaps also knew that Iris pseudacorus<\/i> has medicinal values. ;-))<\/p>\n
