New Colorful IRIS 
Clumps of Iris in all their beautiful colors are 
loved and planted by everyone. Now there are new 
Iris that bloom throughout the summer and again in 
the fall. There are the aristocratic Japanese Iris 
with their enormous flat blooms larger than a saucer, 
and the delicate tine-leaved Siberian Iris that many 
think is the most choice of all kinds. 
VESPER IRIS —Fall Blooming. An exquisite Iris. 
Don’t miss it. All through August it bears a daily 
crop of tiny lavender iris blooms which open in 
the late afternoon. Price: 25c each, postpaid. 
RADIO QUEEN —Our own NEW Iris. Beautiful 
large pink bloom, shadings of blue and lavender on 
ruffled standards. White falls with gold lines 
shading to lavender. 50c each, postpaid. 
“AMERICAN JAPS.” “Arnerican Japs” would be a 
good name for these improved Siberian Iris. They 
are almost as large as Japanese Iris and have the 
same artistic grace. 
Snow Queen, white; Emperor, purple; Pseudacorus, 
yellow; Perry’s Blue, soft blue; Kingfisher Blue, 
vivid blue. Price:

PEONIES 
Radio Queeu 
Peonies with their enormous blooms in June are a close rival to the 
rose. It is a flower that asks for very little but gives much every year 
of its gorgeous, fragrant blooms. Their hardiness makes a very valuable flower for 
cemetery planting. Do not set your peonies very deep or they will be shy of bloom. 
Two inches under the surface is sufficient.
