What is the relationship between the fleur de lis and Jesus Christ?

The Fleur de Lis/Lys seems to be associated more with the Virgin Mary, rather than with Jesus Christ. This comes from the conversion of Clovis in 493, when an apparation of the Virgin Mary made a gift of a Fleur de Lis/Lys at his baptism ceremony.
There are a lot more legends/folklore tying the Fleur de Lis/Lys to the Virgin Mary.
Apart from this one, The three petals of the heraldic design of the Fleur de Lis/Lys reflect a widespread association with the Holy Trinity, a tradition going back to 14th century France.

What does the upside down fleur de lis mean?
Fleur-de-lis is NOT a lily, even though the word could be French for "lily". The symbol is an iris. Accorsing to Pierre-Augustin Boissier de Sauvages in Dictionnaire Languedocien-Francois, "The old fleur-de-lis, especially the ones found in our first kings' scepters, have a lot less in common with ordinary lilies than the flowers called "flambas" in Occitan, or irises, from which the name of our own fleur-de-lis may derive." The name actually derives from "fleur-de-luce" (archaic spelling) derived from the fact that the River Luce is surrounded by "an exceptional number of irises".By the 12th century the fleur-de-lis was a symbol of the Capetian dynasty.Sir Robert Baden-Powell chose it as the emblem of the Boy Scouts because of it's connection with a compass rose, so persumably one that was upside down would depict a direction of "south".AnswerThe fleur de lis is a lily..."Jesus Christ is The Lily of the Valley"...therefore (in my opinion) an inverted fleur de lis would be the same as an inverted cross.
