Legacy bulbs-desirable plants or weeds (Alberto Castillo)

"Not only does Iris pseudacorus
disperse by freshwater, it is also at least moderately saltwater
tolerant. In my area, it comes down the Columbia River and out to the
ocean beaches, along the beaches, where we find seed pods and seeds
regularly. So far, no demonstrated spread to other estuaries, but
it's a matter of time. "
Thanks Kathleen
That info is a bomb, as nowadays it is heading to the crab marshes where freshwater mixes with that of the ocean. I totally believe it is a matter of time as over here it has colonized habitats that were evidently impossible to reach.
