What Royal Iris Communicates
In Greek mythology, Iris was the winged messenger of the gods who traversed the rainbow to deliver words of hope and truth between heaven and earth. The flower bearing her name was planted on graves to guide souls with light.
In France, the stylized iris became the famed fleur-de-lis, representing the sovereign virtues of wisdom, faith, and chivalry. Giving an iris honors someone's integrity, discernment, and moral courage.
In digital arrangements, the iris introduces architectural drama. Its deep indigo and royal violet shades create sophisticated contrast against lighter blooms.

While the bloom itself establishes the emotional tone, the specific hue you select refines the message. Consider these color nuances when crafting your arrangement:
Wisdom, royalty, profound respect, and honorable achievement.
Hope, good news, serene faith, and devotion to an ideal.
Passion, courageous energy, and intellectual excitement.
