GERMAN IRIS 

 Fleur-de-Lis or Iris Germanica 



Are well termed "Garden Orchids" as they fairly outrival 

 orchids in range of coloring — both in dainty combinations and 

 rich and vivid colors, including yellows from light canary to 

 deep golden; blues from soft lavender to intense purples, reds 

 from pinkish mauve to claret and maroon, beautiful bronzes 

 and pure whites. Then some are marked and margined with 

 other colors and all have showy yellow or orange crests or 

 beards. Many are delightfully fragrant. As cut flowers they 

 are highly prized, and cut in the bud state the flowers will 

 open in succession and last for several days with stems in 

 water. 



Our collection contains many new and choice varieties, all 

 hardy, and we are confident they will prove revelations of 

 beauty to Iris lovers. The roots are ready for shipment from 

 Sept. 15 to Nov. 15. 7/ wanted by Parcel Post add postage at 

 Zone Rates on page 2 of cover. Packed weight, 2 lbs. per doz.
