The efficacy and function of iris

Function 1: viewing

The iris has a dignified shape and a compelling fragrance. It is relatively easy to cultivate and care for, and is deeply loved by flower lovers. It is a good choice for indoor and outdoor cultivation, and is also a good landscape to embellish courtyard rockery.

Flower lovers usually plant irises on both sides of water features to enjoy the flowers and their reflections in the water.

The irises in the courtyard are mostly planted in groups, with colorful butterflies flying in the rippling blue waves, creating beautiful scenery.

The various varieties match each other, the flowers bloom one after another, and the flowers bloom continuously by the water. In addition, the leaves and inflorescences of iris can also be used as good materials for flower arrangement, which is beautiful and generous.

Function 2: Medicinal

Iris has a beautiful appearance and profound connotation.

Its roots, stems and leaves can all be used as medicine, but the medicinal effects vary depending on the type.

For example: Yellow calamus tastes bitter, but it can open up the mind and resolve phlegm, promote qi and expel phlegm, and has good effects in detoxification and killing insects.

(The editor reminds that the medicinal properties of flowers should not be used indiscriminately, and flowers grown at home should never be cooked and used as medicine at will.)

Function 3: Health

The flower stems of iris are fragrant and can be used as medicine to strengthen the body, treat abdominal distension, abdominal pain, and loss of appetite.

According to ancient records, calamus was a good medicinal ingredient for improving hearing and eyesight, removing dampness and detoxifying in ancient times.
