Iris. Flf/ioer-de-lnce or Fleur-de-lis. — A highly ornamental 
genus ; those who only know it in the common 
Blue Flag of our meadows can have but little idea 
of the variety and brilliancy of the different spe- 
cies and forms. They vary in size from 3 inches 
to 8 ft., and present the widest possible range in 
colors, which are beautifully contrasted, while 
the peculiar crape-like texture of the petals makes 
. thtim very pleasing. Our collection, as will be 
seen from the list appended, is now very full, 
both in species and garden varieties. All succeed 
in good garden soil. Some of the dwarf kinds, 
like I, pumilaj are used as edgings ; other low- 
pfrowiiig species nre stiited to the rock-work ; some 
aro nt homo on the borders of ponds and similar 
places; some for naturalization in the wild-gar- 
den ; while others still have a delicacy and beauty 
which give them a claim to the choicest and most 
conspicuous place iu the garden. Unless specified, 
any good garden soil will suit them. For other
