JAPANESE IRISES. {Iris Kcempferi,) 



Sec Colored Illustration on Last Cover Page. 



In these we find combinations of form and beauty far excelling any other type. The stately flowers are often 

 3 or 10 inches in diameter, and of wonderfully varied and beautiful colors. They include pure white lightly veined 

 with pale yellow, delicate shades of lilac, lavender, and light l)lue, bright shades of rose and crimson, rich coppery 

 red, claret, purple, violet, and dark blue; in most of them the throat is blotched with deep yellow, and in some a 

 veination of the same color over the entire flower, contrasting beautifully with the ground color. 



This class particularly requires a rich, moist soil, which should be kept saturated while the flower spikes are 

 being developed and while the plants are in bloom. Roots ready in October.
