They lead the parade ! Right with the 

 Daffodils come the Dwarf Iris. Short in 

 stature and delicate in structure, they are 

 none the less stout of heart and brave the 

 icy blasts and cold rains of early Spring 

 with the courage of a Spartan. 



Most Dwarf Irises multiply very fast, 

 creating a sheet of bloom, and later on, a 

 dense mat of green foliage. Long recog- 

 nized as admirable subjects for the rock 

 garden, and as an edging plant in the flower 

 border, these miniatures are perfectly 

 adapted to embellishment of the flagstone 

 path. Scatter them here and there along the 

 intervening spaces. The springtime showing 

 will delight you.
