HENRY A. DREER 



Dreer*s Imperial Japanese Iris 



Six Superb Japanese Iris 



TVe have selected the following' six varieties from 

 a long- list of introductions as the most distinctive. 

 With their rich, lustrous colors and their refined forms 

 they rank high in this regal class of Oriental flowers. 

 Azure. Double immense flow^er, exquisitely waved; 



mauve-blue, darker halo surrounding yellow blotch 



at base of petals. 

 Bertha Hallook. Lower and upper petals nearly 



equal size. Bright, clear purple, with distinct rays 



and halo of white surrounding the golden throat, 



white standards tipped purple.

bright orange center. 

 Pres. Harding. Double or six petaled; heavy, thick- 



petaled flowers produced when all other Japanese 



Iris are out of iSloom. Flowers very massive; fine

Two Splendid New Iris Germanica 



A beautiful combination of Royal Purple and Golden 

 Yellow. 



The two varieties here described, one a golden yel- 

 low, the other a rich velvety purple, flowering at the 

 same time when planted together form a brilliant 

 rich color combination that is most effective and 

 pleasing. 



Gold Imperial. The best and most vigorous growing 

 free-flowering golden yellow Iris. Rich smooth 

 chrome yellow of fine form and texture with a bril- 

 liant orange beard. It has been one of the most 

 admired of the newer Iris on account of its perfect 

 form and unusually deep color. $7.50 per doz.; 

 .$60.00 per 100. 

 Souv. de Mine. Gaudichan. The largest, darkest and 

 by far the finest of the dark purple Irises. The falls 

 are brilliant velvety blackish purple, even the beard 

 has a bluish cast which enhances the beauty of the 

 flower. In addition to its other attractions it is also 

 very fragrant. $5.00 per doz.; $40.00 per 100.
