Iris pallida aka Sweet Iris
Taxonomy
Iris pallida, also known as the Dalmatian iris or sweet iris, is a hardy flowering perennial plant from the subgenus Iris, family Iridaceae. Native to the Dalmatian coast (Croatia) it is now widely naturalised elsewhere. Growing from a rhizome, it is a challenging yet rewarding houseplant that prefers long-lasting, direct light and good at retaining moisture soil. It should be less than 1 foot from a window, and you should repot it each time it doubles in size, though fertilisers may not be necessary.

Soil
Its needs are relatively simple, but one of the most important is making sure its soil is adequately moist. Without proper moisture, the plant can suffer from wilting and stunted growth. To ensure your Sweet Iris is healthy, you must choose a potting soil that retains moisture.
Look for a soil with good drainage to prevent root rot, but also make sure it contains plenty of organic matter. Coco coir and sphagnum moss are both excellent ingredients for retaining moisture and providing the #self.names with the nutrients it needs to thrive. If you can find a soil that has a combination of these ingredients, your #self.names will thank you with beautiful blooms.
