Plant Description
Iris foetidissima, commonly known as the Stinking Iris, is a species of flowering plant notable for its unique characteristics. This iris species features sword-shaped leaves and produces flowers that are typically a dull, yellowish-brown. The most striking feature of the Stinking Iris is the strong, unpleasant odor emitted by its crushed leaves, hence its common name. This distinctive smell is attributed to the presence of various volatile compounds. In contrast to the unscented flowers, the seed pods of Iris foetidissima are vibrant orange-red and remain on the plant throughout winter, adding visual interest to gardens.
