Doable Iris Ksentpferi. 
These new Iris from Japan rival the Lily in stateliness, 
the Pseony in majestic beauty, the Orchid in marvelous deli¬ 
cacy and blending of colors, the Chrysanthemum in profu¬ 
sion, and surpasses almost every plant in the size and kingly 
magnificence of its flowers. Think of a plant sending up to 
the height of three feet a dozen flower spikes, each spike 
bearing from two to four enormous blossoms eight or ten 
incheB across and of the most delicate and beautiful colors, 
markings and combinations. Think of a bed of all colors, 
white, indigo, violet, lavender, mauve, sky-blue, royal pur¬ 
ple. blush, yellow, etc. Your imagination can conceive of 
nothing grander, and when you see them you will realize that 
they are infinitely more grand and beautiful than your 
imagination, could portray. Such are these new Double Iris 
Ktempferl, the king of hardy perennial plants. Once plant¬ 
ed in your garden they are a joy for a lifetime without 
further care, blooming profusely in June and July, during 
which time they are the greatest attraction your garden or 
lawn can contain. We have about one hundred fine named
