Iris 
The best time for transplanting Iris is after they are through 
flowering up until the middle of October, and prices are for shipment 
at that time. We furnish a first class rhizome or division. 
Where a number precedes the name of a variety, this is the 
American Iris Society’s Symposium rating and, while not final, it is 
the best single guide we have to the merits or popularity of a variety. 
These numbers are based on 10 as being perfection.
