IRIS SIBERICA 
(Siberian Iris) 
ORIENTALIS — Rich violet-bive 
in June. 31 feet. 
PERIWINKLE—The largest and 
finest dark variety, color being 
deep violet. Grows to a height of 
40". 
SIBERICA—The flowers resemble 
Spanish and English Iris. These 
make a bright show in the gar- 
den and are excellent for cut- 
ting. They can be cut when in 
bud and will fully develop in 
water. In bloom the latter part 
of May until the end of June. 
Flowers are purplish blue; plants 
are 3 feet high. 
SIBERICA ALBA—White form of 
the preceding. 
SUPERBA — Large violet-blue 
flowers; handsome foliage. Fine 
border plant and grand subject 
for planting near water, where 
it blooms profusely. 
PSEUDACORUS — 36” to 48”. 
This is a particularly valuable 
species for several reasons. First, 
it is a rich yellow color, which 
color is entirely lacking in Si- 
berian and Japanese Iris and it 
is especially attractive mixed 
with the Siberians. Second, it will 
grow in marsh or swampy land, 
even with 2” or 3” of water 
over it, and makes a pretty pic- 
ture in shallow water or along 
the water's edge. Third, it is 
excellent for naturalizing, as it 
will take care of itself in the 
most rugged surroundings.
