Hi checapricorn, I almost certain that your flower is an Iris, I have those in my Island Home of Dominican Rep. Jugging for the leaves and the flower as seen in the picture, I believe is an Iris, those you see in Paints by Van-Gogh. I love them, after the flower dies, few days later from the same place another flower blooms, I am not an expert in Iris or gardening either but I happened to have these flowers. I hope someone with more experience, clarifies this for you.

I guess you are right since I checked the site attached by Elic and it shows there different colors of this type of flowers..
I am excited now, I love it since my question was answered! Thanks for dropping!

The flower has been identified as an iris. They bloom for a short time in the spring. They are very easy to grow but do need thinned out now and again. After they have stopped blooming trim the leave back to about 6 inches from the ground. They need some of the leaves to produce next year. The roots or Rhizome (bulbs)can be planted i the fall and not need to plant very deep.


myLot reputation of 98/100. checapricorn (9961)   ranked 35 out of 19,099 in questions & answers  8 months ago

Hi dee,

wow..thanks for sharing some tips about this flower. I noticed actually that they don't need a lot of taking care, they survive so easy!
SO, you mean after cutting the leaves, I will just leave it there in the place?

Last year, I cut some leaves since it was yellowish and I threw them away!


myLot reputation of 97/100. deebomb (8950)   ranked 1,147 out of 19,099 in questions & answers  8 months ago

Yes just leave the plant where it is and it will come back year after year producing more Rhizomes. there may come a time when they need thinned out due to over crowding.

Hello checapricorn,

Again, I can't help you here! Well, I am sorry for this but I think you know the fact by now - I don't like flowers and plants and am really bad at this! My advice will just let you down lol


myLot reputation of 98/100. checapricorn (9961)   ranked 35 out of 19,099 in questions & answers  8 months ago

Hi gr8life,

you don't like flowers and plants? are you allergy?
I understand that since when I was a kid, I don't like them either and my family loves it and from time to time, I just learned to appreciate it's beauty! heheheh!
Thanks for sharing!

Hello checapricorn,

Well, I think I am a weird and rare species! I don't have allergies but I don't like them just for no apparent reason. Maybe it has to be with my habit of not eating vegetables. Oh, yes! I am a carnivorous! lol
