Iris Pumila Hybrida 
These are a cross with Iris Germanica and about 
as showy, but very dwarf, and this habit gives them 
special value. They are most desirable and valuable 
plants in the hardy garden and should be generally 
grown. 4 to 8 in. May.

Eburnea. Pure white. 
Florida. Beautiful lemon-yellow.

Iris Kaempferi 
A new group of Japan Iris, totally distinct from 
all others of this genus, and without question pro- 
ducing the most gorgeous flowers known, not except- 
ing even the Orchids. Many of the flowers are io 
inches across, with an aggregation of colors quite 
impossible to imagine. They prefer sunny, moist 
situations, planted in heavy loam or clay, where they 
soon become established and form striking and very 
ornamental objects. 3 to 4 ft.
