JAPANESE IRIS (Iris Krempferii). 



These magnificent Iris are among the most beautiful 

 of our summer -flowering plants, and are becoming more 

 popular each season. They commence blooming about 

 the middle of June, and continue for five or six weeks. 

 Many of these flowers measure from 10 to 12 inches in 

 diameter, and rival the orchids in their rich colorings. 

 While this Iris succeeds in almost any soil and con- 

 dition, it delights in a rich, deep, moist position.

 scribe these beautiful Iris. Below we merely give 

 the general color effect. Order by name or num-
