Graceful and Attractive 



Mr. Burbank's experiments with the iris have been made 



largely with the Japanese variety; but he tells us that there is 



ample opportunity to do good and interesting work with the varieties 



that are found in any garden. Contrast this specimen, with 



its graceful drooping petals, for example, with ones 



shown in succeeding pictures. Obviously, 



here is ample material for selective 



breeding.
