This is one
of those plants that
taxonomists using DNA
evidence have decided to change its name.
Most people still know it as
Belamcanda but,
now it is Iris domestica.
The plants
grow up to about 36 inches in height and
bear flowers that range in an array of
colors from red to yellow to orange with
reddish spots on the leaves. After
flowering, they develop clusters of glossy
black seeds that resemble blackberries, thus
the common name. Generally, these plants
survive to USDA Zone 5.
