IRIS 



B"Z always think the flowers can see us --George Eliot 

 Y planting a few well chosen varieties of iris, you will establish a compan- 

 ionship to last through the years to come. They possess great value as a decora- 

 tive subject both in the garden and when used as a cut flower. Their wide range 

 of color, habit of growth and hardiness under varying conditions, make them 

 suitable material for almost any type of garden. 



Accompanying the descriptions, the following information has been noted. 

 First — the garden rating, as 85, this is based on 100 being a perfect rating. 

 Second — the height of the plant when in bloom, in inches, as 48"; and last, 

 the sequence of blooming, E meaning early blooming, MS meaning mid- season, 

 and L meaning late blooming.
