German Iris or Fleur-de-lis 



(IRIS GERMANICA) 



These, the true Fleur-de-Lis — but greatly improved — are well termed "Garden 

 Orchids" and they fairly outrival the orchids in wide range of coloring — both in 

 dainty combinations and rich and vivid colors including yellows from light canary 

 to deep golden; blues from soft lavendar 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 in exquisite harmony, »nH all have showy 

 yellow or orange crests or beards. For garden and landscape decoration — groups 

 and masses of them are very effective being perfectly hardy. 



Our collection contains many choice varieties, and we are confident they will 

 prove revelations of beauty to Iris lovers. The roots should \Se divided and re- 

 planted every fourth year in September as the plants are then dormant. The roots 

 are ready for shipment from Sept. 15 to Nov. 15.

JAPAN IRIS (.-.SHAE-PFEH,, 



There are very few denizens of the flower garden that can compare with the Japan Iris for 

 brilliancy, and it is worthy of a prominent place in every garden. The flowers average 8 to 10 

 inches across and flash like watered silk in the sunlight. 



The Japan Iris besides being very free flowering is perfectly hardy and grows readily in almost 

 any situation, either sunny or partially shady; but the soil should be moist and the plants well 

 supplied with water when flowering. They bloom in great profusion in June and throughout 

 July, coming into bloom when other Irises are faded and gone which to most flower lovers is 

 an additional recommendation. After the ground freezes over a light mulch of litter or manure 

 will prevent heaving of the ground and a consequent loss of plants. Ready September 15 to 

 November 15. - each dozen
