Iris chrysophylla, the yellowleaf iris, is a wildflower which ranges from midwestern and southern Oregon west of the Cascades and south to the crest of the Siskiyou Mountains in northern California. The yellowleaf iris grows up to 5,500 feet (1,700 m) elevation, most commonly in open, coniferous forests.
The flowers are bright yellow, 7–10 cm (2.8–3.9 in) across, with the typical iris form. The fruit is a dry capsule 4–7 cm (1.6–2.8 in) long, containing numerous pale brown seeds.
