A WONDERFUL COLLECTION OF JAPANESE IRIS 
THE GARDEN ORCHID 
Some years ago we imported from a noted specialist of Japan his finest and most improved sorts. From 
this collection we now offer you strong clumps which will surely bloom this year if planted in April or May. 
These Irises will be at their best in July and the flowers are of enormous sizes. Among them you will find the 
most fascinating color combinations. We do not sell small divisions which usually do not bloom for three 
or four years, but strong flowering cliimps in three sizes.
