What southern state, known for its role in the development of many forms of popular American music, has the iris as its state flower?
What is Tennessee. The passionflower was the first state flower (elected by schoolchildren), but since it wasn’t designated by the legislature, a war erupted over the state flower. Finally, a resolution passed the legislature, and the iris became the official state flower. The passionflower became the official state wildflower.
