Iris Barbata — continued. 
We have arranged the Iris Barbata in natural groups, to facilitate amateurs in making selections. Each 
gToup has a distinctive characteristic. Germanica flowers first, and is represented by the blue, purple, and white 
Flag Iris of our gardens ; these flower at the same time, and are extremely decorative in May. Following 
in June comes Aphylla, with Standards having a frill-like appearance arising from the marginal coloured 
transverse lines on a white ground. Amcena has the standards white. Neglecta has the standards purple, or 
approaching to purple. Pallida has the standards ranging from pale lavender to rose-lilac. Squalens embraces 
those with aesthetic-coloured standards ; and Variegata has the standards yellow or tending to yellow. e d
