Iris. Perfect Flowers
Do you remember when you first saw the iris, remember this moment? Maybe it grew up in someone’s yard? Or have you noticed unusual flowers on the shore of a forest lake? Or maybe it was painted on a beautiful Chinese vase? Sometimes people say: “Look, what beautiful iris!” In any case, after the first meeting, you will hardly forget the graceful beauty of this flower. People have long recognized and loved irises. Iris owes its name to Hippocrates, who compared it to a rainbow, more precisely, to the iris of the eye.
In nature, mainly blue and yellow flowers are found, but at the moment experts have bred many decorative varieties of a wide variety of shades. Basically, bearded irises are complex-coloured, they are grown by gardeners, and they are rarely found on sale. More about this beautiful flower read in this article made by our team.
They fit both men and women
It suits men because of its pronounced vertical orientation, as it looks like a sword. By the way, in Japan, samurai could only be given this single flower, symbolizing the warrior spirit. The Japanese are definitely not indifferent to them – at the beginning of May, the “Festival of Iris” is celebrated, when houses and streets are decorated with beautiful spring flowers and people admire them sitting on the banks of water bodies
Iris symbolizes peace and tranquillity. They have a refined natural beauty, in their natural environment, they grow along the shores of lakes. In bouquets, they like to combine with ornamental grass, which emphasizes such a “lake” feeling.
It is associated with one of the early flowers – it is always spring, freshness, youth. Blue irises emphasize youth and joy. Mothers sometimes buy them for their daughters to emphasize maturity and mark the beginning of adult life: you can also make a small children’s bouquet with a butterfly. Iris does not smell, does not cause allergies. In addition, it will add fragility and tenderness to any composition at the same time.
Combinations of iris with other flowers
Florists also use the flower in wedding bouquets to express the tenderness and beauty of the bride. This bright blue iris, somewhat reminiscent of an orchid, go well with a snow-white dress.
Flowers look great in vegetative compositions, creating the feeling that they and the herbs “themselves grew” in a vase.
The beauty of the iris is fragile and not very durable. The flower does not like drafts, stuffy rooms, strong odours. Sometimes a good iris bends slightly under the bud. In this case, you need to straighten it slightly, cut it, wrap it in a paper (parchment), and put it in a high vase for a while. Otherwise, the methods of care are the same as with the rest of the plants: prune, remove all the leaves from the lower part of the plant, put them in cold water (level about 15 cm), and admire its beauty.
