Description
In Greek mythology, iris is the name of the goddess of the rainbow. The iris flower has been a symbol of monarchs and royal families throughout history. The Bourbon kings of France, including Louis XIV, placed the symbol on banners on what we know as the long famous fleur-de-lis. I grew this beautiful flower in my garden and am looking forward to many more blooms in years to come as the plant matures.
