Irises in Lishui's Chuzhou Park have taken on their most delicate appearance after the spring rain, with droplets clinging to their petals, sparkling as though freshly lifted from water.
Chuzhou Park has undergone a greening renovation this year, transforming its former tulip area into 1,300 square meters of blooming irises.

The park's bright yellow irises symbolize enduring friendship and warm-heartedness, pale-colored flowers represent purity, and deep-blue varieties convey elegance and silent admiration.
After rain, they appear especially clear, with thin, paper-like petals, trembling droplets, and delicate patterns on the petals that seem drawn by nature's finest brush.
