(Liberty Irises, LHeur de Lis 
Plant lots of Irises for their grand and royal colors, shimmer¬ 
ing in the sun, and their beauty of form and texture. Mass 
them at the borders of the lawn, or among shrubbery. Plant 
them along walks and drives, and in the herbaceous border. 
Naturalize them in wild and uncultivated places. Plant them 
for cut flowers. They will reward you with a lavish wealth of 
bloom. 
They are perfectly hardy. 
They are easy to grow. 
They are easy to plant. 
They usually bloom the first season. 
They increase rapidly. 
They grow in almost any soil. 
They furnish a wealth of color in May. 
Liberty Irises succeed with shade part of the day, but are best 
in full sun. They are not particular as to soil, will grow almost 
anywhere provided it is well drained, but do best in a rich loam 
or garden soil, even in quite dry locations. Prepare the soil 
well. Compost or leaf mold may be added if needed but no 
manure. Plant 15 to 18 in. apart with the rhizome or fleshy 
part of the roots horizontal and barely covered. Divide and re¬ 
plant as they become too thick. The inches or feet in the de- 
scription is the height of the flower stems. The standards are 
the upright or standing petals, the falls the lower or drooping 
petals. 
Prices: Except where otherwise noted, 15c each, 3 of a 
kind for 30c, 6 or more of a kind at $1.00 per doz.
