IRIS 
I RIS, or Fleur-de-lis, include many different species, some of which are among 
our most beautiful hardy plants. Beginning with the dwarf Pumila varieties, 
which bloom in early May, followed by Cristata, the Intermediate varieties, 
German Iris, Siberian Iris, and finally the splendid Japanese, there is continuous 
bloom until July. The German Iris, which supplies a large part of our garden 
color in May and June, is the best known section. It has a wide range of colors, 
all shades of white, yellow, maroon, blue, lavender, pink, and purple. It grows 
easily and is very effective in mass. Hundreds of new varieties have been origin¬ 
ated, from which the following sixty have been selected as the best. 
Iris can be planted almost any time, even when in bloom, but the best time 
is in July and August. 
In the descriptions “S” refers to the standards or upright petals, and “F" the 
falls or drooping petals. 
All varieties not priced differently are 25 cts. each, $2 for 10, $16 per 100. 
Varieties priced at 20 cts. each are $1.50 for 10; those at 30 cts. each are 
$2.50 for 10; those at 35 cts. each are $3 for 10; those at 40 cts. each are 
$3.50 for 10.
