I was surprised when I learned that the Blue Flag Iris (Iris versicolor) is only one of many varieties native to Newfoundland. Its showy flowers somehow seem too vulnerable for Newfoundland's climate, especially when they grow surrounded by more hardy-seeming specimens like Labrador tea and sheep laurel. I found a large clump of irises thriving in a marshy portion of the Signal Hill walk.
