The Bulbous Iris 



and its 



Outdoor Culture in Massachusetts 



By Frank A. Waugh 



Although bulbous irises are easily one of the most beautiful and 

 adaptable groups of flowering plants, the belief that they are not 

 hardy for this latitude has hindered their general introduction. This 

 bulletin presents information about varieties and methods of culture 

 which it is hoped may lead to their more general use in hardy gardens.
