The flower behind the fleur

I hope that everyone had a delightfully fun, extraordinarily wild, and resoundingly safe Mardi Gras. In spirit of the recent holiday, I have a little trivia for you:

Do you know what flower the fleur de lis (the New Orleans city emblem) symbolizes?

 Here's a hint...


You've been seeing this flower sprouting up all over our website, facebook and here on the blog...

And here's your answer!


Telstar Iris

That's right! The fleur de lis is meant to represent the Iris. See the resemblance?


With springtime around the corner, now is the time to fill your buckets with Iris! Call Sun Valley at (800) 747-0396 to find out more about our spring Iris production.
