Iris Garden Cards / Set of 6

These multicolored gems are often among the first to break through the thawing soil. Named for the Greek goddess of the rainbow, irises represent the connection between earth and the heavens. According to The Language of Flowers, the iris is the distillation of a message, a conduit of communication, unity, and compassion.

Early harbingers of spring, daffodils transform previously colorless landscapes with otherworldly yellow or white flowers. Symbolizing both fertility and death, the flower is sacred to Hades, and was said to grow along the banks of the river Styx in the Underworld.
