BEARDLESS SPECIES OF FLAG IRISES. 
The Irises offered in this section are all perfectly hardy, and quite distinct from the Bearded group. Those 
marked with an * are good aquatics, as well as beautiful border plants. Cristata has lovely amethyst- 
blue flowers, and is charming on banks and rock-work in sunny sheltered spots, where it can be moderately 
dry in winter. Stylosa flowers in winter, and is a great beauty : it should be grown where it can get a goot- 
roasting in summer, and be fairly dry and sheltered in winter. Fcetidissima is often naturalized in a shady wood, 
but as a wild plant, it is found growing generally on dry banks ; its seed vessels, when disclosing the scarlet 
berries, are handsome and much prized for winter decorations.
