German Iris True Charm 



Japan Iris 



Iris Kaempferi 



The magnificence of these new Irises surpasses de- 

 scription. The flowers are of enormous size, averaging 

 6 to 8 inches across, charming hues and colors, varying 

 like watered silk in the sunlight, the prevailing colors 

 being white, crimson, rose, lilac, lavender, violet and 

 blue; each flower usually representing several shades, 

 while a golden-yellow blotch, surrounded by a halo of 

 blue or violet, at the base of the petals intensifies the 

 wealth of coloring. They bloom in great profusion in 

 June and throughout July, coming into bloom when 

 other Irises are faded and gone. Ready September 15 to 

 November 15.
