JAPANBSE: iris (Iris Kaempferi) ' 



The improved forms of this beautiful flower have placed them in the same 

 rank popularly as the Hardy Phloxes and Peonies. Coming into flower about 

 the middle of June, and continuing for five or six weeks, they fill in a period 

 when flowers of this attractive type are particularly welcome. 



They succeed in almost any soil and position, but like rich soil and plenty 

 of water when they are forming their buds and developing their flowers. 



Valuable as cut flowers, for which purpose they should be cut in the bud 

 state, permitting the blooms to expand after being placed in water.
