It is a rhizomatous perennial plant, originally from Romania with violet and white flowers. It was once thought to be a subspecies of ''Iris sintenisii'', but now classified as a separate species. It is also called ''Iris Brandzy'' or ''Prodan Iris'' in Russia. It is cultivated as an ornamental plant in temperate regions. ==Description== Iris brandzae is similar in form to ''Iris sintenisii'', but with several differences, including leaf form, flower shape and spathe form.〔British Iris Society (1997) 〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://encyclopaedia.alpinegardensociety.net/plants/Iris/sintenisii )〕 It has an (un-described) rhizome.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.atlas-roslin.pl/gatunki/kosacce_irysy_ogrodowe.htm )〕 It forms small clumps of plants.
