Original Fine Art Photography by Donna Kennedy...
Lavender Iris in morning light Reno, NV
It should be no surprise that the kings of France selected Bearded Iris (Iris germanica) as their emblem, the fleur-de-lis. The blossoms of this late spring/early summer flower possess a stately, classical beauty. The English name, Bearded Iris, refers to the bristly hairs emerging from the flowers' throats. These sun-loving, hardy perennials produce a succession of blooms on sturdy stems above bold, sword-shaped leaves. Some Bearded Iris have a sweet perfume, many rebloom.

A gorgeous Bearded Iris portrait, Donna! It's funny that the French did that since it is also called German Iris:)
