JAPANESE IRIS 



{Iris Kaempferi) 



The Japanese Iris is the most showy and strikingly beautihil of all 

 the large family of Iris; and very few flowers, the orchid not being 

 excepted, surpass this unique flower in size and gorgeousness and 

 variety of color, which ranges from snow-white to the deepest purple, 

 striped, variegated and nmlticolored in the greatest profusion of 

 coloring. 



The collections which we offer below are American grown, thor- 

 oughly acclimated and hardy and true to color and name, which is 

 rarely evident in the imported Japanese stock. 



The plants we offer are furnished with four to five shoots, and all 

 will flower the first season after planting, guaranteeing an immediate 

 and showy effect. Delivery can be made now or any time desired. 

 Early fall planting is recommended, however, as it gives the plants 

 an opportunity to get established before the severe weather sets in. 



The Japan Iris will succeed anywhere in a good rich soil, though a 

 moist position is preferable.
