Iris 
Sometimes  known  as  "Flags," 
and  often  spoken  of  as  "Fleur-de- 
Lis."  Popular  herbaceous  plants, 
that  come  up  year  after  year,  and 
each  season  stronger  and  more 
floriferous  than  the  previous.  They 
grow  in  clumps,  and  do  well  in 
almost  any  soil;  are  desirable  in 
borders  and  shrubbery,  and  beau- 
tiful in  beds  and  groups  by  them- 
selves; also  for  planting  along 
water-edges.  The  flowers  embrace 
a  variety  of  colors  in  innumerable 
tints  of  blue,  yellow  and  white.  Those  of  the  German 
forms  are  not  so  delicately  colored,  nor  are  they  so 
large  as  the  flowers  of  the  Japanese  varieties.  They 
flower  the  latter  part  of  May,  and  are  through 
flowering  the  last  of  June,  when  the  Japanese 
Iris  are  brilliant  with  their  wealth  of  flowers.  Both 
are  needed  to  give  a  continuous  effect  from  May 
to  July.  This  year,  we  have  also  a  fine  stock  of 
the  Siberian  Iris,  which  are  especially  valued  for 
water-side  and  naturalistic  plantings.
