"Iris × hollandica, commonly known as the Dutch iris, is a hybrid iris developed from species native to Spain and North Africa. Two varieties of Iris xiphium from Spain and from France, were crossed with Iris tingitana." from Wikipedia
A white iris with delicate beauty is matched with a textured prose background in complimentary colors. Iris blooms do not last long, but while they are here they charm us with their regal images.
This Iris germanica is fan of the Rolling Stones

Montreux - a small clump of irises at the foot of a palm tree. I think it is Iris unguicularis - Algerian winter iris.
Made a split decision last night to go to the Schreiners Gardens with my BUD!
Thanks to my good Pal Eric letting me know about it. Didn't have long enough there! but what a wonderful place & need to go back again to focus on "other" flowers than just Iris! Had a busy, weekend with not much time on Flickr..so hope to catch up with you all today..:-)
Iris in Grecia, Iride a Roma: dea dell'arcobaleno e messaggera degli dei. Dotata di piedi veloci e di grandi ali era una messaggera degli dei. L'arcobaleno, di cui era la personificazione, era anche il sentiero che percorreva andando dal cielo alla terra.
Molti grandi pittori hanno lasciato delle bellissime raffigurazioni di fiori di Iris attraverso i secoli: fra i tanti riccordiamo: Luca Giordano; Leonardo da Vinci con la “Madonna delle Rocce”; Durer con la “Madonna con gli iris”; Van Gogh con “Les Iris” ; Monet, Guerin con “Iris et Morpheus”.
