IRIS. 
ENGLISH (I. anglica or Xiphioides). 
For brilliancy of colour and fine vigorous foliage the English Iris takes rank amongst the 
handsomest of flowering bulbs. They greatly resemble the Spanish Iris in style of growth, attaining a 
height of about 2 feet, and produce, during June and July, a succession of large and beautiful flowers.
