ENGLISH IRIS. 
The following three Collections of English 
Iris comprise all the newest and finest 
varieties. J. C. flatters himself they will 
be found superior to any yet offered. As 
the English Iris do not keep well out of 
the ground, they should be planted as soon 
as convenient after they are received. 
Single Bulbs cannot be selected under 6 d. 
each.
