German Iris 



IRIS INTERREGNA 



An interesting new type, the result of crossing I. cjerman- 

 ica with I. pumila hybrida, and for which there promises 

 to be a great future. They bloom earlier than the German 

 Iris, and the flowers combine perfection of form with large 

 size and clear and decided colors. The foliage is dwarf and. 

 maintains its freshness throughout the season. The flower 

 stems are about 18 inches high, holding the flowers well 

 above the foliage.
