The arms of Florence show a fleur-de-lis, or Florentine lily. Until 1251 the coat of arm of Florence was a white lily on a red field.

The lily refers to the flower of iris that grew naturally on the city walls and on the hills around Florence. | The arms of Florence show a fleur-de-lis, or Florentine lily.
