The purple falls of this iris were especially beautiful in the late afternoon light. Some say that the flower takes the name from the Greek word for a rainbow, perhaps because of the diverse species and colors. I love how the iris comes marching along, just when the tulips and daffodils are waning, to provide so much showy color for weeks. There are around 260–300 species of flowering plants in the Iris genus, many with showy flowers. The iris takes its name from the Greek word for a rainbow, which is also the name for the Greek goddess of the rainbow, Iris. Some authors state that the name refers to the wide variety of flower colors found among the many species. Irises often have a rich velvety texture, with petal-like flags and fuzzy "beards."
