Dwarf Lake Iris
Dwarf lake iris (Iris lacustris) is actually a miniature iris, only a few inches tall. It is a northern Great Lakes endemic, confined to the undisturbed shores of Lake Michigan and Lake Huron, in parts of Wisconsin, Michigan, and Canada. It is considered to be Threatened at the Federal level, and is the state wildflower of Michigan.
It prefers limy, gravelly, old lake beach ridges, especially associated with white cedars.
