| Description |
English: Yellow iris (Iris pseudacorus) The section of the Grantham Canal to the west of Colston Road near to the old Blue Hill Bridge, has only about 12 inches of water which is ideal for all sorts of water margin plants. Growing in the marshy bottom of the canal, this native iris is also known as 'segg', which derives from an Anglo-Saxon word meaning 'short sword' and refers to the shape of the leaves; and yellow flag because of the fluttering of the flowers. The flowers can produce a yellow dye, and the rhizome, a black dye. |
