| Diplarrena
contains two common native species. Like many irises they are
a tufted plant, with the stems flattened and the leaves in two rows.
The flowers are white with purple and yellow patches near the base,
3-5 cm wide. The leaves of both species can be up to almost one
metre, but D. moraea (a species of dry forests and heaths)
has leaves less than 1 cm wide, whereas D. latifolia (a
species of wet heaths and sedgelands) has leaves more than 1cm wide. |
