Hello fellow gardeners,

I want to get a hold of this flower I am pretty confident that it is in the iris family. Can someone help me with the name of it, common or not I just want to know so I can order or buy them someplace.
Thanks,
Wross

I have always known it as a Japanese Iris, although I have had no luck finding it on the web.
