I. susiana L. was recorded by Kirk (T.N.Z.I. 10, 1878, 376) as "not infrequent on the sites of abandoned homesteads", but Healy (T.R.S.N.Z. 85, 1958, 538) noted that it did not persist. Also known as the "Mourning iris"I. susiana has very large grey silky flowers with a deep red-black patch on the outer segments. It is difficult to grow even in cultivation hence it is unlikely to become established.
