Germa^IrIs 



German or Bearded Iris— f/eizr-cfe-h's 



Iris Germanica 



These the true Fleur-de-Lis — but greatly improved — are well termed "Garden Orchids" and they fairly outrival the orchids in wide range 

 of coloring — both in dainty combinations and rich and vivid colors many of the varieties are delighfully 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. The 

 roots are ready for shipment from September 15th to November 15th.
