JAPANESE IRIS SEEDS 
These Irises are very easily raised from seeds and, unlike the German Iris 
seeds, they germinate well and quickly. Fall-sown seeds will give you nice plants 
by Spring and some of these will bloom the second autumn; all will bloom the 
second year. Spring-sown seeds will give you large blooming sized clumps the 
following year. Raising these beautiful Iris seeds, never knowing what wonder¬ 
ful prizes you will draw, is a most charming and fascinating garden game. If 
you have never raised Japanese Iris, try it by all means. 
BEST SELECTED SEEDS__„.«/ 8 oz., 35c; Vi oz., 60c; oz. $2.00; pkt. 25c 
In some years our seed crop is short or fails entirely, when we have to import 
our seeds from Japan. These do not arrive here until after Christmas; hence 
you cannot get your seeds until January, but usually we have plenty of seeds 
of our own raising by November. 
NOTICE—New seeds do not mature until late in the fall. We send them out as 
soon as ready. (We can’t do it before.) 
ARE YOU BOTHERED WITH IRIS ROT? TRY THIS ONE 
Mr. Dykes, in his book on Iris, says to make a solution of potassium per¬ 
manganate—obtainable at any drug store for little money—and wash the affected 
part—a sure cure. 
PERENNIAL DELPHINIUM HYBRIDS AS ANNUALS 
Riverton, N. J. 
Pudor’s, Inc., Puyallup, Wash. 
Enclosed please find check for which please send the delphinium seed on 
order sheet. Your seeds germinate so satisfactorily. The earlier I can start my 
seed the better plants they make for me. You see we have bacterial crown rot, and 
though I have tried every advertised remedy and those recommended by the Del¬ 
phinium Society, my delphiniums are only annual—but SUCH annuals! Glorious 
eight and nine foot spikes of closely set florets, each big as a dollar. But by 
September 28th everyone has rotted and been burnt. Even the seedlings throw 
several stalks—they are the pride of my garden. MRS. H. S. M.
