Of all the hardy flowers, there is nothing 

 more truly grand than the better varieties of 

 Japanese Iris; and blooming as they do, in 

 great profusion, from about the middle of 

 June to the middle of July, they are of spe- 

 cial value. 



The varieties offered are the choicest in cul- 

 tivation; many of which we obtained direct 

 from the Imperial Gardens of Japan; and each 

 is entirely distinct from all the others.

 ly veined throughout with azure.
