BULBOUS IRIS 
As a cut flower, the Bulbous Iris is fast taking its place as one of the most popular and 
profitable items for the Greenhouse. The flowers are phenomenal keepers and shippers, 
blooming at a time of year when flowers are in demand at good prices. 
Under glass, the Tingitana Hybrids may be brought into flower during December and 
January; the Dutch during February and March; and the Spanish during March and April. 
For a continuation of blooms during the latter part of April, May, and the first part of 
June, the Dutch and Spanish may he planted in cold frames or outside. 
For early forcing we recommend top size bulbs. For slower inside growing second size 
bulbs may be used. The smallest size bulb is suitable for cold frame or outside growing and, 
because of the low price, growers should find these very profitable.
