Ever Try “Iris Potpourri? 
One of my customers has left with me a standing order for one bulb of 
all new and distinctive seedling Irises which are produced from year to 
year. I was curious enough to ask her why. 
“Well, there are so many beautiful varieties that you simply can’t grow 
all of them in borders, so I have one large bed where all the new ones 
are placed, I call it ‘Iris Potpourri’ 
The idea appealed to me, and, I believe, will appeal to many of my 
friends. To give Iris enthusiasts a chance to get good ingredients at the 
start I have listed two special collections for this month — the one a large 
edition of the other. 
Here's An Excellent Start 
Collection A — twenty-five separate varieties, packed and correctly labeled, wall 
be sent for $5; Collection A 2 — fifty separate varieties for $10. This is at the rate 
of twenty cents each, but some of these bulbs are considerably more valuable. 
Farr’s Hardy Plant Specialties contains over a hundred pages, with numerous 
illustrations in natural colors, and many photographic reproductions. This book 
is too costly for miscellaneous distribution, but a copy will be sent upon receipt of 
$1, which sum may be deducted from your first order amounting to $10.
