Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Stinking Iris (Iris foetidissima) So named because the crushed leaves have a distinctive smell, which some consider to be like roast beef, which gives the plant one of its alternative names, the Roast-beef Plant. One of the plants here, in the left centre foreground, is in flower - later in the year the seed head will open up to reveal bright red seeds, which remain on the plant for much of the winter. Seen here in an area of beechwood on the lower slopes of the North Downs.
