BULBOUS IRIS. 
To the Iris lover there is open almost as broad and certainly no 
less pleasing and interesting a field as to the orchid enthusist. 
I have only touched the high spots, as it were, in presenting a 
collection of the German, Japanese, Siberian and a few of the other 
more common species of Iris. 
The various kinds of bulbous Irises, which are planted in the 
fall, are not only interesting and beautiful, but are quite valuable in 
making up a variety and succession in the garden scheme. 
About the first of August I propose issuing a list of bulbous Iris 
which will be sent free to those who receive this catalogue and to 
others on application.
