German Iris or Fleur-de-Lis 
Iris Germanica and Allied Species 
German Iris are well termed ‘‘Garden Orchids’’ and they fairly outrival the orchids in wide 
range of coloring—including yellows from light canary to deep golden; blues from soft lavender 
to intense purples, reds from pinkish mauve to claret and maroon, beautiful bronzes and pure 
whites. Some are marked and margined with other colors in exquisite harmony and all have showy 
yellow or orange crests or beards, many of the varieties being delightfully fragrant. 
The roots are ready for shipment from September 15th to November 15th.
