Season of Bloom and Height 
Each color map table, as you will note above, includes easily re¬ 
membered symbols to indicate the season of bloom and the height of 
each variety, thus enabling you to make your selection accordingly. 
Under the "Season” column the letters VE indicate very early flower¬ 
ing season; E, early; M, midseason; ML, medium late; VL, very late. 
Under the "Height” column varieties marked T are upwards of 
36 inches tall; M, 24 to 36 inches; L, under 24 inches. These heights 
fluctuating according to influences exercised by soil, weather and 
geographical preferences. Originators names, abbreviated, are also 
given under that heading. 
Section l A White Selfs 
White Iris have a charm all their own. The delicacy of their 
texture, their classical style and their grace give us our most ethereal 
looking Iris. In some types they remind one of chiseled snow white 
marble, elegant and chaste. White is needed in garden plantings and 
should be used in profusion together with yellow Iris to serve as foils 
or contrasts for other colors—assuring variety and life in your Iris 
garden panorama.
