The Blue Iris was
a favorite of Vincent van Gogh, who painted many blue
irises in his still life paintings. Originating in the
Mediterranean region and southern Europe, the Blue
Iris was considered a symbol of power by the
ancient Egyptians. In Japan the blue iris expresses
heroism, as the blue color refers to blue blood, so
the blue iris plays a key role in the
Japanese spring festival for boys. In some parts of
the world the blue iris can denote royalty. The blue
iris makes perfect flower gift for almost any
occasion, be it birthday, get well or just to tell someone
you are thinking of them. We use the blue iris
in variety of our bouquets in combination with other
flowers, such as roses and lilies. |
