Locally, it grows along the shores of water bodies, wetlands, etc., occurring scattered across the country outside mountainous regions. Quite common in warmer areas. The yellow iris thrives in wet and muddy places, banks of standing and gently flowing waters, ditches, and reed beds. It blooms from May to June.
