PETER HENDERSON & CO., NEW YORK.— HIGH GRADE BULBS.— WHOLESALE.

SPANISH IRIS 



FOR FORCING. 



TPHESE almost equal orchids in beauty of coloring 

 * and delicacy of pertume — the flowers are of great 

 beauty and cut in the bud state, .asl from one to two 

 weeks in bloom— longer than any otner cut Iris. One i 

 root bears one stem bearing two flowers in succes- 

 sion a week apart ; the faded flower docs not show 

 a mark on the stem when removed. All growers // 

 of cut flowers should try these this season ; they 

 are low priced, and if planted in boxes and / 

 placed in cold frames until they show bud, 

 then biing into heat they can be had in 

 bloom from March on, and will 

 give greatsatisfaction.
