IRIS—‘^The Rainbow Flower” 
I RIS PLANTS are extremely hardy, easy to grow and give an abundance of showy, color¬ 
ful flowers. They prefer a sunny location and a shallow planting. To help you make 
selections the varieties are grouped according to their prevailing color effect. In the de¬ 
scriptions the “S” refers to the standards (upright petals) and “F” to the falls (lower petals). 
Prices are for strong, sturdy root divisions. A 10% discount is allowed from the each price 
when 5 or more of a variety are ordered. (Please add 10% to prices for shipment by Parcel Post).
