IRISES 



Surpassing even orchids in 

 beauty, the regal Japanese Irises 

 seem to take first place in the 

 garden of perennials. They 

 bloom in July — a desirable time 

 to choose the ones you like, and 

 order plants for fall shipment. 



Japanese Iris, 3 and 4 year 

 plants, 50 cts. each, So a dozen. 

 Iris Germanica, extra big 

 plants, 25 cts. each, $2.50 a 

 dozen. 



My new Catalogue gives 

 the complete list of varieties of 

 Irises, with other perennials, 

 trees, shrubs, roses. May I send 

 you a copy?
