Iris pseudacorus, wild Iris on the Ashby Canal
Iris pseudacorus (Wild Iris, Yellow flag, Segg, Jacob's sword)....
"It is sometimes suggested as the origin of the 'fleur-de-lis' of heraldry. 'Segg' (a variant of sedge) is from the Anglo-Saxon for short sword, a reference to the blade-like character of the leaves."
