What is the difference between a Violet and an Iris? Are they different flowers, or the same?

They are different flowers, different subspecies and different smells as well.


violets tend to be smaller and grow closer to the ground, irises are taller, have wooder stems.


Try wikipedia :)

What is the difference between a Violet and an Iris? Are they different flowers, or the same?
They are both naturally purple, but they are entirely different flowers.





Violet is a low-growing woodland flower with heart-shaped leaves. The flowers are on delicate little stalks. The flowers themselves have distinctive shapes, facing horizontally rather than vertically. Violets are dicots - have branching veins in their leaves.





Irises are upright flowers with long, sword-shaped leaves. They are monocots with parallel veins in the leaves. The flowers have three petals hanging down and three petals upward in a kind of crown.





Do an image search for these flowers. They're quite common and there should be hundreds of pictures of them on the internet.
Reply:These are entirely different plants and flowers. You need to look some of these things up. You have a computer. They have so many search engines. Go to www.ask.com and put in first violet and then put in iris. Select the search option of pictures. You will see at a glance they are entirely different.





Enjoy the learning curve.
