Japanese Irises 
Iris Kaempferi (Japanese Iris) 
The tall, blade-like foliage alone is of real decorative 
value, and the orchid-like flowers appear in late June, 
after all other Irises have passed. Cut in the bud stage, 
the flowers open perfectly and keep well. A rich, moist 
location is best, but average garden conditions will suit 
this Iris.

veined phlox-purple. Petaloids deep purple.
