vent mistakes in filling orders, but if 
any mistakes should occur, we will 
gladly make adjustment; however, 
we will in no case be liable for an 
amount greater than the purchase 
price of the stock. 
CULTURE 
RISES are not particular as to soil, 
but the bearded varieties in general 
prefer an alkaline rather than an acid 
soil. They like plenty of sunshine 
and good drainage and are able to 
withstand severe drought if well 
established. The beardless and crested 
sorts, including the Siberians and 
Spurias, require plenty of moisture 
and an acid soil, also some kinds need 
partial shade. Bearded Irises should be 
planted with the tops of the rhizomes 
level with the surface of the ground, 
except in the case of late Fall plant¬ 
ing when they should be more deeply 
planted to prevent heaving. We will 
be glad to offer our advice and sug¬ 
gestions if you will submit us your 
special problems. 
TIME TO PLANT 
EARDED IRISES may be trans¬ 
planted any time in the Spring, 
Summer or Fall, but we strongly rec¬ 
ommend Fall planting for the South 
and Middle West where the Summers 
are usually hot and dry. Further 
North the Summer months are the 
best time for transplanting. 
Unless we are otherwise instructed 
we will assume that our customers 
want immediate shipment of their 
orders. Orders are shipped within 48 
hours after receipt except when dig¬ 
ging is delayed by rain or other 
causes over which we have no control. 
Delivery of varieties of which our 
stock is limited will not be made 
before August. 
Beardless Irises should be planted 
in the Fall or in early Spring when 
growth is just starting. 
HILL’S IRISES 
UR 1936 catalog contains many 
outstanding, new varieties, old 
and inferior sorts having been dis¬ 
carded to make room for them in our 
garden. The list of Standard varieties 
priced at $ 1 per dozen met with such 
enthusiastic response that we are 
making it a permanent feature of our 
list. 
A soil well adapted to the growing 
of Irises, careful attention and fre¬ 
quent transplanting make our plants 
second to none in size and quality. A 
trial will convince you that Hill’s 
plants are the finest obtainable. We 
furnish modern Irises at modest 
prices. 
Many of our customers include 
postage with their orders or instruct 
us to send them by collect express 
and feel well repaid by the extra 
number and size of plants we include 
in such orders. 
We gratefully acknowledge the 
many appreciative letters from satis¬ 
fied customers in every state.
