we will in no case be liable for an

CULTURE 
RISES are not particular as to soil, 
but the bearded varieties in general 
prefer an alkaline rather than an acid 
soil. They like plenty of sunshine 
and good drainage and are able to 
withstand severe drought if well 
established. The beardless and crested 
sorts, including the Siberians and 
Spurias, require plenty of moisture 
and an acid soil, also some kinds need 
partial shade. Bearded Irises should be 
planted with the tops of the rhizomes 
level with the surface of the ground, 
except in the case of late Fall plant¬ 
ing when they should be more deeply 
planted to prevent heaving. We will 
be glad to offer our advice and sug¬ 
gestions if you will submit us your 
special problems. 
TIME TO PLANT 
EARDED IRISES may be trans¬ 
planted any time in the Spring, 
Summer or Fall. We strongly recom¬ 
mend Fall planting for the South and 
Middle West where Summers are 
usually hot and dry. Further North 
the Summer months are the best to 
transplant. The period immediately 
following the blooming season is a 
good time to move them. 
Beardless Irises should be planted 
in the Fall or in early Spring when 
growth is just starting. 
Delivery of varieties of which our 
stock is limited will not be made 
before August. 
HILL’S IRISES 
HIS year we continue our policy 
of adding to our list new varieties 
of proven merit. More than fifty of 
the newer sorts appear in our list for 
the first time. They are worthy of the 
careful consideration of all Iris lovers. 
We continue to list and recommend a 
very complete selection of Sass Irises. 
This catalog contains a separate 
list of standard varieties priced at 10 
cents each. Include a dozen or more of 
them in your order. 
We are grateful for the many appre¬ 
ciative letters which our fine large Iris 
rhizomes brought us last season. Our 
plants are large, healthy, vigorous and 
well acclimated. The most convincing 
proof that their quality is appreciated 
is the fact that our customers continue 
to order year after year. A trial order 
will convince you that our plants are 
the finest obtainable. We furnish 
better plants at lower prices.
