SPANISH IRIS (THE ORCHID-LIKE BULBOUS IRIS OF SPAIN). 
Bulbs supplied September to December. 
The Spanish Irises are in flower a fortnight before the English, and differ from them considerably, the 
flowers being smaller, and the combination of colours quite different ; both in form and the curious blendings 
of shades, the flowers have a strong resemblance to orchids. To cut for vases and bouquets they are greatly 
prized. They require the same cultural treatment as the English Iris. See coloured plate in The Garden, 1881 . 
jt5T Our annual exhibits of cut blooms of these beautiful Irises, at the London Summer Shows, are 
always a great feature of attraction.
