 worthwhile and sensational Iris grown. It is the

 recognized as being the "spark" that brings out the 

 fullest beauty of any Iris garden and Alta California 

 serves this purpose to perfection. 48 inches.

 height and one of the ten largest and best. Huge 

 brilliant flowers of. perfect form in a soft to medium 

 blue effect. 50 inches.

 garden because of its freedom of bloom, large rich 

 copper-bronze flowers, and good foliage.

 difficult to describe. Midseason. 40 inches.

 way.
