BEARDLESS SPECIES OF FLAG IRIS. 
The Iris offered in this section are perfectly hardy, and altogether distinct from the Bearded group. Most 
of them make grand aquatics especially A urea, Monneri, Ochroleuca, Goldenstadtii, and the varieties of Pseudo - 
Acorus, and Spuria, which in water are not only majestic in growth, but have flowers surpassingly beautiful. 
The varieties of Sibirica, including Orientalis, are graceful in water. All the other Iris in this group, with the 
exception of Cristata, Iberica, Ruthenica, Stylosa, Susiana, Tectorum, and Tuberosa, may be grown as marsh 
aquatics. Cristata is charming on dry banks and rock-work in sunny sheltered places ; Iberica and Susiana 
require special treatment. Dr. Foster grows these beautiful Iris successfully, they are planted in the soil and 
covered with a frame from the middle of June to the middle of October, thus securing to them a period of 
rest. From October till in flower the lights are removed and the plants exposed to all weathers. From a very 
small space, Dr. Foster cuts multitudes of flowers of the finest quality from these and other kindred species 
by this simple treatment. Fcetidissima is valuable for damp shady situations, and its seed vessels are much prized 
in winter; Tectorum is found on the thatched roofs of Chinese houses, where it gets a good roasting in summer.
