Novelties 
There are so many fine Irises introduced each year now that it is very difficult to pick 
out the best. However, in this list will be found those that are universally hailed as won¬ 
derful improvements, or have already proven their claims as superfine Irises. All of these 
varieties are definite improvements over older ones of similar coloring, or are of new and 
novel shades. 
The name of the Iris is followed in parenthesis by the name of the originator and date of 
introduction. The figures after that give the average height of stalk in inches. “S.” 
denotes the Standards, or upper petals; “F.”, the Falls, or lower petals.
