Description

The purple iris symbolizes royalty and aristocracy, dignity and respect, peace and harmony, spirituality, power, hope after death, and wisdom.

Purple irises appear in different traditions and mythologies worldwide. In each culture, these flowers have a different meaning and significance.

Iris is a genus of about 260–300 species of flowering plants with showy flowers. It takes its name from the Greek word for a rainbow, which is also the name for the Greek goddess of the rainbow, Iris. Some authors state that the name refers to the wide variety of flower colors found among the many species. As well as being the scientific name, iris is also very widely used as a common name for all Iris species, as well as some belonging to other closely related genera.

Iris is extensively grown as ornamental plant in home and botanical gardens. They grow well in most any garden soil types providing they are well-drained.
