Flower identification please?
 

I have some of these flowers in front of my house. I did not plant them there. Last year they just appeared. There were only a couple of them so I left them. They have now spread out and there are several as you can see. I was wondering what they were and will they continue to spread if left alone? Sorry, I have not weeded lately. I love perennials as I don't have to work hard on them....:D

Missouri primrose. If they like your spot, they will spread like weeds and you can just pull the ones that get where you don't want them. But they are easy to grow and a great cheerful color where a lot of other things will not grow.

Thanks. I thought it might be some type of a primrose. It is the one spot in my yard that actually gets sun for more than an hour. I have a very shady yard so mostly Hostas and Impatiens....

They are also called Evening Primrose....All mine are in full bloom...I love them...They do multiply...:)

Flower ID?
 

This grows on the shore of my pond. Anybody know what it is? Thanks!

I believe they are wild iris.

We have them too and we call them water iris. THat doesn't mean we are right though.

I can see how they could be called "water iris". When the pond is at full pool the roots and half the new growth is under water.
