5 cheepers’ Supreme Collection of Japanese Irises 
These varieties have never been offered before. They 
were selected as the choicest from a fine collection in the 
most famous private Japanese Iris Garden in Yokohama. 
All were named by us in honor of prominent flower lovers 
during the Summer Show in Newport, Rhode Island, 
where they were exhibited. Japanese Irises are best 
planted during August or September. 
They may be inspected at flowering time in “Paradou,” 
our display gardens, Brookville, Long Island. Visitors’ 
courtesy cards with information as to best flowering time, 
will be mailed to you or your friends on request.
