Dwarf violet iris is characterized by its small stature and the enchanting fragrance of its early spring blossoms. The plant displays narrow, straight leaves, distinct from those of some related species. The flowers emerge on diminutive stalks, typically before the foliage fully develops. These blooms are notable for lacking the crested ridges on their sepals, which is a key identifying feature. The petite, vibrant blossoms are a visual marker of its presence in the appropriate woodland environments.
