IRIS 

 KAEMPFERI 



These are by far the most beautiful of all Irises. Few garden subjects are as easily grown or adaptable to 

 such a wide range of cUmatic and soil conditions as are these. They thrive on soils that range from sand to peat, 

 but require plenty of moisture particularly during the flowering period which immediately follows the Giant 

 Bearded Iris. When grown in rich soil flowers up to 9 inches are not unusual.
