Iris typhifolia is a species of Iris in the genus Limniris and series Sibiricae. It is a rhizomatous herbaceous perennial native to China, with slender, twisted leaves, deep green slender hollow stem and 2 violet-blue flowers. It is cultivated as an ornamental plant in temperate regions and is hardy to USDA Zone 4-9. It is found growing on damp areas near lakes, and on marshy ground and stream-sides. It prefers positions in full sun but can tolerate part shade and should be grown in moist, slightly acidic soil. It is propagated by division or from seed and has been used by plant breeders and hybridisers to create cultivars such as 'China Spring', 'Caitlin's Smile' and 'China White'. It is toxic if ingested and can cause skin irritation or an allergic reaction.
