THE  IRISES 
We  especially  wish  to  call  attention  to  the  value  of  the  Iris  for  groups,  for  planting  in  masses  on 
the  lawn  or  among  shrubbery,  or  for  naturalizing  in  wild  or  uncultivated  places.  When  planted 
in  masses  they  produce  a  display  of  large,  bright  flowers,  not  equaled  by  anything  else  in  their  sea- 
son.   The  most  effective  way  to  plant  a  mass  is  to  use  one  color  only.
