German Iris ° Fleur-de-Lis 
fris Germanica and Allied Species 
These the true Fleur-de-Lis—but greatly improved—are well termed ‘Garden Or. 
chids” and they fairly outrival the orchids in wide range of coloring—both in dainty 
combinations and rich and vivid colors including yellows from light canary to deep 
golden; blues from soft lavender to intense purples, reds from pinkish mauve to claret 
and maroon, beautiful bronzes and pure whites, then some are marked and margined 
with other colors in exquisite harmony and all have showy yellow or orange crests or 
beards, many of the varieties are delightfully fragrant. 
For garden and landscape decoration—groups and masses of them are very effective 
being perfectly hardy, thriving and increasing year after year in any sunny situation in 
ordinarily good soil except a wet one which is liable to cause decay. Our collection 
contains many new and choice varieties, which will be revelations of beauty to Iris 
lovers. The roots should be divided and replanted every fourth year—early in Septem 
ber is the best time for the plants are then dormant. The roots are ready for shipment 
from September 15th to November 15th.

A—AMBASSADEUR. C—MOTHER OF PEARL. 
SPANISH [IRIS or Iris Hispanica 
These beautiful bulbous irises have long been knownas 
“the poor man’s orchids'’ and appropriately so because 
the colorings and markings of the different varieties of 
Spanish Iris so closely resemble the markings of many 
specimens of the Orchid family The flowers of some 
are four to five inches in diameter and the plants 
are all extremely graceful. For the adornment of a 
dinner table nothing could be better and, if cut while 
in bud, last about ten days. They are also suitable 
for pot culture and if planted in pots or boxes and stored 
in cold frames until they show buds, and then brought 
into heat, they may be had in bloom from April on.
