In China, the iris is a symbol of spring, vitality, and change. Due to the large, delicate petals that resemble butterfly wings, Chinese people sometimes refer to the iris as a butterfly. In Ancient China, people believed that placing irises around a door or inside a home would keep negative energies away. - More Information
