SIBERIAN IRIS 
In comparison to the heavy blooms of the Tall Bearded or 
German Iris, the Siberians have smaller flowers, but there are 
more of them to the plant, and on their tall slender stems they 
appear more butterfly-like and graceful. They bloom a little 
later than the bearded, and are among the best for cut flowers. 
Clumps very compact, with flowers massed at the top. Very 
hardy, multiply fast, and will thrive on dry soil, but prefer 
moist location. Full sun or half shade. Good for rockery 
and about the pool. Delivery spring or fall. 
Siberian Blue—Rich blue. 
Siberian White—Handsome white. 
Either of above, 15c each; $1.20 per doz.; $5.00 per 100, 
Prepaid. 
JAPANESE IRIS 
This handsome species starts blooming after all other Iris 
are gone—late June and July. Large silken flowers, 6 to 8 
inches or more across. Excellent for cut flowers when cut in 
the bud state, permitting the blooms to open in water. Plant 
in a sunny and moist location, but not where water will stand. 
Avoid lime. 
Gold Bound—Double. Early. Fine white, creamy glow, 
with gold banded center. 
Hercules—Double. Clear lilac blue. 
Laughing Doll—(Waria Hotei) Double. Extra large lavender 
blue, with primrose blotches. One of the very best Japs. 
Mahogany—Double. Mahogany red, with a tint of purple. 
Crested petals. One of the latest to bloom. 
Universe—Double. Cerulean blue, veined white, golden 
center. 
Price: 30c each; $2.50 per doz., prepaid. 
RED HOT POKER 
(Torch Lily—Tritoma) 
Showy perennial of unusual appearance. Large spikes of 
brilliant orange scarlet flowers poised above the green foliage 
like spear heads. Mulch for the winter, or store in sand in 
cellar. 25c each; $2.50 per doz., prepaid.
