Blackberry Lily, sometimes called Leopard Lily, produces sword-like leaves topped by stunning orange flowers that are thickly mottled with crimson-red spots. Technically an iris, Blackberry Lily is quite easy to care for and often blooms in its first year. Excellent in cut flower arrnagements whether fresh or dried, this plant also produces blackish berries that look lovely in a vase. (Iris domestica)

Description

This famous lily is not a lily at all, but a member of the iris family. It is native to China and Japan, but naturalizes easily here in North America. The blackberry in the name refers to the seed which are formed in large bulbous seed cases which crack open in fall revealing the shiny black seeds.
