Ixia viridiflora, also known as turquoise ixia, is a tall member of the genus Ixia. It comes from around the Tulbagh in South Africa, Cape Province. It has small corms under the ground.
This corn lily is very rare. Its habitats are often destroyed by human influence. As a consequence, its conservation status is vulnerable and is tending to worsen.
