JAPANESE NAMED VARIETIES 
Kuro Kumo. Double deep purple, overlaid with blue. Size A, 50c; Size B, 35c. 
Shirataki. Very tall, broad fluted white petals with a golden band in the center; 
a wonderful pure white flower. Size A 50c; Size B 35c. 
Size “A” consists of Large Division with 3 or 4 fans; each one, if taken care 
of as it should be, will produce flower stalks the first year. Owing to the heavy 
weight of the Japanese Iris, please include 25c per plant extra for mail charges 
(2 lbs.), Middle Western and all Eastern and Southern States. West of the 
Rockies add 10c to each plant. 
Size “B” consists of Divisions with at least 2 fans; these should also produce 
one or two flower stalks the fifth season under favorable conditions; these are 
sent postpaid to California and all states West of the Rocky Mountains, but East 
of the Rocky Mountains please add 12 cents to each clump of the Size “B.” A 
clump of this size will weigh 1 lb. or more. 
We advise Express Shipment. For large orders, say from a dozen up, espe¬ 
cially of Size “A,” we advise express shipment; they are too havy and clumsy 
to be shipped by mail. 
Japanese Irises will thrive in any part of the United States; they are hardy 
and much more beautiful than the Germanica group. If you have never grown 
them, you have missed a lot. They are fine for cut flowers. You can plant them 
in the early spring or in the fall with equal success.

far the best bulletin on the subject we have ever seen. Through the courtesy 
of the Botanical Garden we were given special permission to reprint this bulletin.

HAND-COLORED FLOWER SLIDES FOR GARDEN CLUBS 
Over 100 Garden Clubs throughout the states showed our colored Delphinium 
and flower slides last year; there are some 35 of them in a set, including a little 
talk on the cultivation of Delphiniums, thrown on the screen and read aloud by 
the operator; there is also other reading matter, the whole making it a sort of 
an illustrated lecture. Time required for showing, about 30 to '45 minutes. We 
have three sets going all the time, and it is well to make application three to 
four weeks ahead of your meeting. Each club must pay the transportation charges 
of the slides to the next place, which average about $1.50 each way—nearby 
points much less. They must be promptly returned.
