Iris Grant-Duffii 🏵️

Also known as the swamp iris, and grows in Israel, Syria, and Turkey.

@simba and I encountered several such irises on our last trip.

Its original area of ​​growth - heavy and deep land - has become mostly agricultural land.

Today it grows in the Land of Israel only in the center of the Golan Heights, where the nature reserve Iris Nov was declared for preservation.

The species is rare, and the other species of iris are protected by law.

Enjoy!
