Pride flower of the week; Non-binary -- Tall Bearded Iris 'Wild Surprise'

Why the Iris 'Wild Surprise'? (Tall Bearded Iris) The color pallet of the flower is similar to the nonbinary flag, and even aligns itself in order of the flag! Some of the darker, and slightly desaturated ends of the ruffles are almost like the color black too. In my opinion, this flower is also reflective of being nonbinary in more ways than one. For example, Bearded Irises reproduce asexually through rhizomes, rather then the sexual components seen in other plants. Therefore its sexual expression is outside of the binary, much like the gender expression of non-binary folks. Also, in my own personal experience, I've realized that despite sharing a label, many non-binary people have unique expressions related to gender -- Whether it be abstract, or absent, maybe even both.. or more. Which isn't unusual, considering as nonbinary is a large umbrella label, but a nice reminder of our differences as people. ...In that same vein of thought, this flower reminds me of that. Mainly due to the differences that can be found in it: The shape, ruffles, colour, size.. so on. It in some way reflects that uniqueness to me, which makes it all the more favorable to me. Any other suggestions for a flower representing non-binary people? Not really! The only things i've seen so far has been a few reddit suggestions. Namely being the "Dungowan Bush Tomato" for its unstable / changing sexual expression, and the "Passion Flower" and "purple, yellow, and black pansy" for their similarities to the color pallet of the flag. (i'd put the images of them here, but they refuse to load.)
