Iris fosteriana is a species in the genus Iris, subgenus Scorpiris.

It was named after Michael Foster (a known British Iris expert) by Dr Aitchison, and found in Pendjeh, Turkmenistan.[2][3]

First described in transactions of the Linnean Society of London in April 1888 and then published by John Gilbert Baker in Botanical Magazine in 1892.[4]

Iris fosteriana is an accepted name by the RHS.[5]

It has many similarities with other iris species in the Xiphium.[2]

Habit

It has a slim bulb (coloured cream) with a long thin neck. Below the bulb are tuberous roots that are white, thin and 6in long.[7] The fragile roots mean that the bulb does not take transplanting very well.[2]

In Spring, (March in the UK[2]) it has 1 or 2 long tubed flowers that are 4–5 cm (1.5 or 2in) wide with downard-turned rich purple (or deep purple)[10] standards and creamy yellow (or pale yellow[10]) falls.[6] The flowers do not produce any scent.[2] After flowering, it produces seeds, but there is no aril (coating) on the seed.[7] The seeds are cube-shaped.[7]

It has deeply channeled[7] mid-green leaves which have a silver edge.[6] Which start growing in early December. By March, they have turned grey near the base, and mid-green at the tops.[8] They reach between 4-8mm wide and grow up to 18 cm long.[10]

The leaves when mature hide the stem.[8]

The plant reaches a total height of approximately 10–15 cm tall when in bloom.[9]

Best grown in the uk, in an alpine house or bulb frame.[6]

Native

Found in the sandy soils of Gulran, Afghanistan, at an altitude of about 4,000 feet.[2] It is also found on the dry steppes (750-2000m above sea level) of North East Iran,[8] near Kopet Dag mountain range.[10] Which also includes the former Russian state of Turkmenistan.[9][11]
