It depends upon the particular iris [Irisspp] as to whether the plant will be affected by broadleaved or narrow leaved herbicide applications. Generally, those iris plants such as the amur iris [Iris maackii], Douglas iris [Iris douglasiana], and Virginia iris [Iris virginica] that are water feature and water body lovers tend to be broadleaved. Additionally, the bulbous iris that's grown from bulbs has wider, cylindrical leaves at their bases whereas rhizomatous iris that spreads by underground rhizomes has narrower, sword shaped leaves. Examples of popular narrow leaved iris plants include Algerian iris [Iris unguicularis varangustifolia], Pacific Coast iris [Iris tenax], and Siberian iris [Iris siberica ].
