Plants in both clumps in full bloom. Very easy to I.D.
Commentary
Thanks for reporting this yellow flag iris to the website hotline, Bruce. Yellow flag iris is a tenacious invasive and your report will be useful to flesh out the distribution of this species. Since yellow flag iris is already abundant in many areas of valley, these particular plants may not be controlled immediately, but I will forward your report to the Upper Willamette Cooperative Weed Management Area coordinator to make sure they're aware of it. I will let you know what I hear back.
Thanks again for the report.

Small clumps of iris on edge of slough, one on south side and one on north side. Clump on slouth side most obvious. Not sure who landowner is, private of public?
Thanks again for the report.
