Iris willmottiana is very similar in form to that of Iris caucasica. Sharing similar size, shape, leaf margin but having smaller flowers. It has thickened roots, and it has broad leaves that are glossy lustrous green, that appear in May. The leaves also have a thin white margin on the edges. It generally grows to a height of between 15 and 25 cm (6 and 10 in) tall, in late spring or early summer. It has between 2 and 6 flowers on a short stem. The large flowers (about 6–7 cm in diameter), come in various shades of blue, from intense cobalt blue, pale lavender-blue, pale purple, to light purple. The flowers are also blotched with white, and flecked with deep lavender-purple. The falls have a large white area and white crest or central ridge with purple marks. The standards are about 1.5 cm long.

It was collected from Bokhara in Eastern Turkestan in 1899, by a plant collector on behalf of the Van Tubergen nurseries in Haarlem, the Netherlands. It was then sent to Michael Foster who then first published and described it in the 'Gardeners Chronicle' of London' in 1901. He named it after Ellen Willmott, a renowned gardener. It is one of 60 or so plants named after her. Mr Foster chose Mrs Willmott due to her interest in irises. It was later illustrated in colour in Curtis's Botanical Magazine, plate number 8340, in 1912. Iris willmottiana is now an accepted name by the RHS, and was verified by United States Department of Agriculture Agricultural Research Service on 3 October 2014.
