Single and Double Violets 



German Iris 



The memory of the "Blue Flag" of the old-time 

 gardens is one ever sweet to those whose lives were 

 lived in such surroundings, and while the "modern" 

 Irises, if we may use the term, will remind one of 

 the old days, they, too, like everything else of 

 these days, have yielded to the influence of improve- 

 ment, and there has been evolved a race of flowers 

 absolutely bewildering in glory of their form and 

 color.
