Moraea cookii is a delicate looking but very hardy, drought resistant bulbous plant with bright green, dainty reed-like leaves. It produces striking bright yellow, iris-like flowers that, although each only last a day, are carried in succession almost all year-round, peaking in late winter. The flower stalk is branched and is carried above the thin strappy foliage.
Plants are ideal for rockeries, flowering meadow gardens and containers. Interplant with smaller grasses for a beautiful display. Bulbs multiply readily, and need not be lifted but rather left in the ground to multiply.
Grows best in full sun, in well drained soil.
