GERMAN IRIS. 



IRIS GERMANICA AND ALLIED SPECIES. 



These the true Fleur-de-Lis — but greatly improved — -are well termed " Garden Orchids " and they fairly out rival the orchids in wide range of coloring — 

 both in dainty combinations and rich and vivid colors including yellows from light canary to deep golden; blues from soft lavender to intense purples, reds from pink- 

 ish mauve to claret and maroon, beautiful bronzes and pure whites then some are marked and margined with other colors in exquisite harmony, and ail have 

 showy yellow or orange crests or beards, many of the varieties are delightfully fragrant. As cut flowers they are highly prized, cut in the bud st?te the 

 flowers will open in succession and last for several days with stems in water. For garden and landscape decoration — groups and masses of them are very 

 effective, being perfectly hardy, thriving and increasing year after year in any sunny situation in ordinarily good soil except a wet one which is liable to 

 cause decay. Our collection — herewith catalogued — contains many new and choice varieties, and we are confident they will prove revelations of beauty to 

 Iris lovers. The roots should be divided and replanted every fourth year — early in September is the best time for the plants are then dormant. The roots 

 are ready for shipment from Sept. 1st to Nov. 15.
