PERENNIALS AND CALIFORNIA BULBS

GERMAN IRISES, continued 
many cases there are two or three strong crowns of most vigorous quality connected. 
They are always taken fresh from the ground and shipped in moist sphagnum moss so 
that there is hardly a setback to their growth. In our collections this high standard is 
adhered to, and every plant or bunch of a sort is labeled carefully with wire labels.
