This is an iris I love. I don't remember where I got it, probably 5-6 years ago, or what it's name might be. It always blooms early. It's a rapid grower and spreads fast. Yellow is my favorite color and this is a nice bright splash of yellow in the spring. The mother clump that I keep taking these from is about 2'x3' this year.
It's about 12-15 inches tall.

Very pretty Jane!
Is that the same yellow iris that you shared with me several years ago in the secret perennial trade? I went out and checked mine this morning. It has buds. I was surprised to find another iris (Cherry Garden) blooming near it. This is the first year for that one to bloom.

I agree. It's like a splash of sunshine. It's a dreary, rainy day but the first bloom on my little, yellow iris opened today. Thanks so much for sharing this little beauty with me.
