Lovely. Looks very similar to the African Iris... One of my faves.

African Iris (Dietes vegeta) - also known as "Butterfly Iris" - is probably the best known in South Florida landscapes.

Its thin, willowy, upright leaves grow in a clump that forms a grass-like mound about 2-1/2 feet tall.
This plant blooms on and off all year with bright white flowers dabbed with lavender and gold. Another lesser-used variety has small, soft yellow flowers with a purplish-red center.
