Summary APG II (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02) |
 | | In the flowers, the outer tepal whorl tends to be green outside, and the ovary is inferior; there is often a narrowly tubular part of the tepal or an apical beak to the ovary. |
 | | Iridaceae may be recognised by their usually ensiform and equitant isobifacial leaves and their large flowers with showy tepals, three extrorse stamens, complex stigma, and inferior ovary. |
 | | Xeronemataceae are large monocot herbs that may be recognised by their equitant isobifacial leaves and congested inflorescences with rather large, radially symmetrical, upwardly-facing flowers. |
