Nature, peace, love for harmony, might, immensity, spirituality,
Those are good criteria. But I would also add Growth, and Resilience.
I think Hydras are very strong in might, immensity, growth, and resilience. They have some connection to harmony (lots of heads, working together) and nature (they're a lizard-like creature that could easily live in forests, and especially undiscovered untouched locales) and spirituality (with multiple heads, they are likely to be worshiped as something special). Peace and harmony and spirituality are all green, but also white, so when it came down to it I would focus on the growth/might/nature aspects. Particularly when we are designing a creature, something that is inevitably going to be concerned more with attacking than with peace and love.
I think that hits the bases pretty well, at least as well as anything else. Treefolk fit the criteria quite well but are just way too lame (imo) to ever be Iconic.
