| Sisyrinchium
iridifolium (blue pigroot) is an occasional weed of
roadsides and waste areas. It has very flattened stems with
scattered, flattened, glaucous leaves up to 20cm long.. The flowers are white-cream with purplish veins,
with six more or less similar petals/sepals. The flowers occur in clusters of 2-5
(usually with only one flower open at a time). The stamens and
styles are short and hidden by the perianth parts. The filaments of
the stamens form a tube around the styles. |
