Iris (plant) the subgenus "Scorpiris" are widely known as 'junos', particularly in horticulture. It is a popular garden flower. The often-segregated, monotypic genera "Belamcanda" (blackberry lily, "I. domestica"), "Hermodactylus" (snake's head iris, "I. tuberosa"), and "Pardanthopsis" (vesper iris, "I. dichotoma") are currently included in "Iris". Three Iris varieties are used in the Iris flower data set outlined by Ronald Fisher in his 1936 paper "The use of multiple measurements in taxonomic problems" as an example of linear discriminant analysis. Irises are perennial plants, growing from creeping rhizomes (rhizomatous irises) or, in drier climates, from bulbs (bulbous irises). They have long, erect flowering
