Iris marsica is a rare plant species in the genus Iris, native to Italy. It has glaucous, sickle-shaped leaves and produces violet, light blue violet, dark violet, and dark purple flowers. It was first described in 1973 and is not commonly found in cultivation. It was previously thought to be a form of Iris germanica, but has distinct characteristics and chromosomal differences. The plant is found in the Apennine Mountains and is at risk of extinction due to collection from the wild. It is protected by conservation efforts and is listed on the IUCN Red List. It can be grown in well-drained soil and is propagated through division or seed growing. However, it should be handled with caution as it is toxic to humans and animals.
