Iris hexagona is considered a rare species known from a few counties from Florida to South Carolina (Henderson in FNA, vol. 26; Meerow et al. 2011). It is closely related to I. brevicaulis and I. fulva. The iris that is common in the Florida peninsula is I. savannarum.

Iris savannarum is common in Florida and is characterized by its bright green non-evergreen leaves, sepal tips more acute to acuminate, and capsules 6-10 cm long with 6 winglike ridges. The rarer plant, I. hexagona s.s., is characterized by its yellow-green and evergreen leaves, sepals tips less acute to rounded, and capsules 2.5-3.5 cm long and strongly hexagonal. Data from some microsatellites show that I. savannarum is composed of multiple lineages which likely can or do interbreed (Meerow et al. 2011, 2017). This and related species have been placed in the genus Phaeiris, and additional species have been recognized that occur in Florida, including albispiritus (extinct?), kimballiae, and rivularis (Mavrodiev et al. 2021).

Listed Status:	(Florida):Source - Plants in the Preservation of Native Flora of Florida Act. Chapter 5B-40, Florida Administrative Code. 1998, amended.
Endangered:	A species of plants native to the state that are in imminent danger of extinction within the state, the survival of which is unlikely if the causes of a decline in the number of plants continue, and includes all species determined to be endangered or threatened pursuant to the Federal Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended.
Threatened:	Listed as Threatened Plants in the Preservation of Native Flora of Florida Act. Defined as species of plants native to the state that are in rapid decline in the number of plants within the state, but which have not so decreased in such number as to cause them to be endangered.
