Japanese Iris 
German Iris (Iris Germanica ) 
These popular flowers have been called rightfully 
“Orchids of the Garden.” Some varieties have a 
delicate fragrance, while in others the loss of that 
quality is compensated by the beauty of the bloom. 
They grow well in a sunny location where the rhizomes 
can bask in the sun all summer. Varieties here named 
are among those rated the highest by the American 
Iris Society. We have many others in our nurseries. 
All varieties, 25 cts. each; $2.50 per doz. 
Caprice. Reddish purple. 24 inches high. 
Iris King. Standards yellow; falls velvety 
brown with border of golden yellow. 27 
inches. 
Lent A. Williamson. Standards violet; falls 
velvety purple. A superb variety. 
Lord of June. Standards blue; falls lavender- 
lilac. A sturdy variety growing 40 inches or 
more in height. 
Quaker Lady. Standard smoky lavender shaded 
yellow; falls ageratum blue and old-gold. 38 
inches.

A beautiful Iris which makes a showy mass of 
color. 27 inches.

Iris Kaempferi 
The flowers of this class are won¬ 
derfully colored and seem to have 
about all of the shades in the rain¬ 
bow, and many that are 
not found in that gorgeous 
arch. Blooms come in sum¬ 
mer, and are much larger 
than the German Iris. The 
Japanese Irises thrive best 
where there is an ample 
supply of moisture, but 
they do not grow well if 
standing in water. 
All varieties, 35 cts. each; 
$3.50 per doz.
