Iris domestica, aka leopard lily, is an ornamental plant with flowers approximately 2" wide. This short-lived perennial is not a true lily, but is a member of the iris family. The dried rhizome has long been used medicinally in Eastern Asia for a variety of ailments. The seed pods open in the fall, showing clusters of black seeds whose resemblance to a blackberry gives the plant its common name, "blackberry lily".
Best viewed large. Thank you so much for your visits, faves and comments!
We moved to Maryland from South Carolina, a little over a year ago. This photo was the last one from South Carolina in my "For Flickr" folder. There have been plenty of flowers in Maryland, and, God willing, I'll be posting photos of them soon.
Thank you for looking! Isn't God a great artist?
Blackberries, in addition to being very tasty, are also very useful fruits. I love blackberry jam....
Blackberries grow wild throughout most of Europe. They are an important element in the ecology of many countries, and harvesting the berries is a popular pastime. However, their rigorous growth and tendency to grow unchecked if not managed correctly means that the plants are also considered a weed
Good for what ails you, they say......
A low cal antioxidant to improve skin tone, memory, heart function, GI issues, gums and avoid cancer.
Pass the blackberries, please!

Mellow September brings ripening blackberries to admire as I walk along the country road.
I am back after a lengthy absence, which I needed in order to adapt to living alone after my husband's placement in a memory care home. His Alzheimer's grimly progresses. We are in the end days now, and observing and documenting the beauty of nature and the changing seasons brings me solace.
