Iris tectorum (I. tectorum) has a high medicinal value that belongs to the family Iridaceae. Here, we reported the complete chloroplast (cp) genome sequences of I. tectorum, which was 153,199 bp in length. The cp genome was characterized by a typical quadripartite structure composed of an LSC (82,779 bp) and an SSC (18,562 bp) region interspersed by a pair of 25,929 bp IR regions, and it contained 87 protein-coding genes, 8 rRNAs, 38 tRNAs. A maximum-likelihood (ML) phylogenetic tree indicated that I. tectorum was closely related to Iris gatesii.
