Flowers Exclusive to Ireland?

I didn%26#039;t get a lot of help with my last question (don%26#039;t bother looking it%26#039;s a boring read and fairly redundant, though I did get a few good answers, ther werent many) so now I am trying a different approch. I figure people in this section know more about flowers =]





I want to incorperate my heritage into a little %26#039;project%26#039; so to speak that I%26#039;m creating for myself, but there needs to be beautiful full flowers. Please don%26#039;t say the shamrock because I am really not interested in that for this project. it simply would not work well.





so what I would like from any of you are Flowers that grown in ireland. They don%26#039;t have to be exclusive, though that would be prefferable. Just beatiful, and prefferably with color. I don%26#039;t want people to see it and automatically say %26quot;oh I bet she%26#039;s irish%26quot; like they would if there were a Shamrock there, I want it to be something I can discuss, if you get it..





it can be more than one flower as well as long as they compliment eachother. Thanks so much!

This one names a bunch, but no pictures. Have to look up each individual flower to see what you think.

This will give you several ideas, but again, no pictures of the actual trees or shrubs:
