IRISES
IN BLOOM
Charming landscape of blue and white patterned flowers of Irises. The Iris is named after the messenger of the Gods and the rainbow linking earth with other worlds. The flag iris is supposed to have saved the life of sixth century Frankish king Clovis who saw flag irises growing in the Rhine River and so knew it would be shallow enough to cross and thus escape his enemy. Irises have been grown in Japan, China, Siberia, and almost the entire temperate world. |
