The Neomarica caerulea 'Regina', commonly known as the Regina Walking Iris, is a striking perennial plant admired for its elegant, sword-shaped foliage and showy blue-purple flowers with intricate white and yellow markings. This low-maintenance plant gets its name from its unique habit of producing new plants at the tips of its flower stalks, which bend to the ground and "walk" to establish new growth. Growing up to 60–90 cm tall and 30–60 cm wide, it thrives in shaded or partially sunny areas, making it a versatile choice for tropical and subtropical gardens.
