Хо. 1506. 
IRIS TAURICA. 
Class, Order. 
TRIANDRIA MONOGY NIA. 
We raised this plant in 1826, from seeds 
received from our valued friend Dr. 
Fischer, of Petersburg. It is quite hardy, 
growing to the height of a few inches only, 
and flowering in the month of May. 
It will increase by separating the roots, 
which should be planted in light loam, 
either in a pot or border.
