[edit]

Hello! This is a note to let the editors of this article know that File:Isophysis tasmanica.jpg will be appearing as picture of the day on July 31, 2011. You can view and edit the POTD blurb at Template:POTD/2011-07-31. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page so Wikipedia doesn't look bad. :) Thanks! howcheng {chat} 17:53, 28 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Isophysis tasmanica
The flower of an Isophysis tasmanica plant, the only member of the Isophysis genus in the iris family. The plant is endemic to the mountains of Western Tasmania, growing in heathland on sandy soils. It has grass-like foliage and star-like dark red-purple or yellow flowers with reflexed tepals, as well as a characteristic superior ovary which distinguishes it from other Iridaceae.Photo: JJ Harrison
