It is in French, but even if you do not read French, the pictures teach a really good class on how to observe and abstract and make patterns. Examples:

Iris × germanica (bearded German iris)

Lost ancestors

Irises come in many colors and that prompted Carl Linnaeus, in 1753, to name the genus after Iris the Greek goddess of the rainbow. Linnaeus also named the species Iris germanica (German Iris) which was long considered the ancestor of all the common hybrid bearded irises grown in modern gardens. Unfortunately, Iris germanica is not a species, it’s a naturally occurring hybrid (and it’s usually sterile and won’t produce viable seed). Linnaeus collected the type specimen locally and just assumed that it was a true species. The remote ancestors of the bearded German iris are unknown and possibly extinct in the wild.
