Nath. small Iris pallida Dalmatian Iris or Sweet Iris is native to the Dalmatian coast Croatia but widely naturalised elsewhere. It is a member of the subgenus iris, meaning that it is a bearded iris, and grows from a rhizome . It is cultivated for extraction of essential oils from its rhizome orris root . This iris prefers rocky places in the mediterranean and submediterranean zone and reaches sometimes montane regions at its southern range in Montenegro. It grows to a stem height of 50 to 80 centimeters. The leaves are bluish green in color, and sword shaped, 40 to 50 centimeters in length, and 2.5 to 3 centimeters in width. The inflorescence , produced in May June, is fan shaped and contains two or three flowers which are usually pale purplish to whitish. Subspecies Three subspecies of Iris pallida s.l. are recognised by some authors as species Iris pallida ssp. cengialti with deep purplish flowers from Slovenia and adjacent Italy, iris illyrica Iris pallida ssp. illyrica from the North Dalmatian coast, Iris pallida ssp. pseudopallida from the South Dalmatian coast. Another subspecies is Iris pallida ssp. musulmanica . The newly described Orjen Iris I. orjenii has white flowers.
