IRIS 
In making up this 1935 Iris List we have divided our list into three separate 
groups. We have our group of “Extra Good” varieties, “Medium Priced” varie¬ 
ties and “Common” varieties. This grouping does not mean that the “Common” 
varieties are poor Iris. There are a lot of good varieties in this Cheaper Group, 
such as Afterglow, Gertrude, Pallida Dalmatica and others, but they are older 
and stock is more plentiful and as a result they carry a cheaper price. 
EXTRA GOOD VARIETIES 
This list contains some of the World’s finest Iris. Practically all of them are 
recent introductions and are much improved over the old types. If you have never 
handled any of these “Extra Good” varieties it would be our suggestion that you 
try a few of them. Your customers will enjoy getting acquainted with them.
