SHILKA IRIS 



Long, slender stems bear 12 to 15 

 superbly beautiful flowers at one 

 time, and produce hundreds through- 

 out the season. The wide-spreading 

 blooms, which are frequently double, 

 are a gorgeous blend of delicate 

 orchid, blue and creamy white, and 

 are mildly fragrant. To its beauty 

 should be added its hardiness, its 

 original home having been Siberia.

 deepest indigo-purple, no shade 

 is omitted. They leave nothing to 

 be desired by the most critical 

 flower lover, for they have come 

 as close to sheer perfection as 

 have any perennials, seemingly 

 being at home as much in the 

 vases of one's house as in the 

 most aristocratic garden. Each
