Flex-wrap does not wrap items in IE11
Add flex: auto to the first child.
For image scaling, add img { width: 100%; height: auto; }
.d1 {
display: flex;
flex-wrap: wrap;
padding: 4%;
}
.image-container {
align-items: center;
display: flex;
flex: auto; /* adjustment */
justify-content: center;
max-width: 250px; /* optional; limits image size */
}
/* image scaling */
img {
width: 100%;
height: auto;
}
.d1 .text {
flex: 1;
padding: 2%;
}<div class="d1">
<div class="image-container">
<img src="https://emilythompsonflowers.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/hippie-flower-300x300.jpg">
</div>
<div class="text">

</div>You could refer to this code sample. The image is original size at first and the left and right parts are of the same width. It works well in IE 11 :
.d1 {
display: flex;
flex-wrap: wrap;
padding: 4%;
}
.image-container {
align-items: center;
display: flex;
flex: 1;
justify-content: center;
min-width: 200px;
}
.d1 .text {
flex: 1;
padding: 2%;
}
/* adjustment */
img {
width: 100%;
height: auto;
max-width: 300px;
}<div class="d1">
<div class="image-container">
<img src="https://emilythompsonflowers.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/hippie-flower-300x300.jpg">
</div>
<div class="text">
