German Iris 



The memory of the "Blue Flag" of the old-time gardens is 

 one ever sweet to those whose lives were lived in such surround- 

 ings, and while the "modern" Irises, if we may use the term, 

 will remind one of the old days, they, too, like everything else 

 of these days have yielded to the influence of improvement, and 

 there has been evolved a race of flowers absolutely bewildering 

 in glory of their form and color. 

 Canary Bird (Flavescens). Lovely pale yellow. 

 Darius. Yellow and lilac. 

 Honorabilis. Deep yellow; mahogany falls. 

 Florentina Alba (Silver King). Early white.
