Well you asked the right Vancouver BC - based forum Western Canadians were well known for their love of Maui especially Kihei in the 1970s onward - Maui Rib copy-cat recipes are still popular in BC supermarkets (copying Azeka Market which was on Kihei Road) ———————- Your flower - I suggest it’s “Walking iris” (Neomarica It’s very pretty isn’t it? Have a look at the links below https://www.ctahr.hawaii.edu/oc/freepubs/pdf/OF-41.pdf Neomarica | Pacific Bulb Society Neomarica caerulea (walking iris) And some info from England - classified invasive ? And for Vancouverites who like a tropical look Neomarica caerulea 'Regina' - Giant Apostles' Iris - Iridaceae (The Iris Family)
Agree with Georgia Strait....Neomarica caerulea.. Superb pics by Forest and Kim Starr below Neomarica caerulea - Plants of Hawaii - Starr Environmental
