Hi Nancy=2C=0A=
The leaves appear to be flat v-shapes which partly =0A=
enclose the upper leaf base and all in one plane which would suggest =0A=
Iris versicolor growing from a rhizome to be 18" tall now. It flowers =0A=
often when in the open but in shaded woodland depressions can be quite =0A=
inconspicuous and easily overlooked. In sunny swails it should be now or so=
on in =0A=
flower so a leaf base comparison would test this ID.=0A=
