GERMAN IRISES. 



Iris Germanica. True Fleur-de-Lis. 



Irises require ricli soil and abundance of water. The finest blooms are 

 obtained from established champs ; consequently when planted they should 

 remain undisturbed. Set the roots in clumps of three or more, four inches 

 deep, and protect M-ith leaves or other mulch during winter. We advise 

 early autumn planting. 



In the descriptions (S) is used to signify standards or the erect petals ; 

 (F) falls or the drooping petals. 



Each, 15 cents; dozen, $1..")0; 100, .$10.00 (except wl)ere (itlu>r\visc 

 priced).
