Japanese Iris 



Japanese Iris (Ms Kaempferi) 



The improved forms of this beautiful flower have placed them 

 in the same rank popularly as the Hardy Phloxes and Peonies. 

 Coming into flower about the middle of June, and continuing 

 for 3 to 4 weeks they fill in a period when flowers of this attractive 

 type are particularly welcome. 

 They succeed in almost any soil and position, but like rich soil and plenty of 

 water. 



Valuable as cut flowers, for which purpose they should be cut in the bud 

 state.
