Japanese Irises 
These are the big three-or six-petalled irises that stretch the iris bloom¬ 
ing time into July. When happily established, there is nothing to compare with 
them for sheer grace and beauty. They will grow in the full sun, but are hap¬ 
pier, and retain their colors better, if they can have partial shade during 
a part of the day. They like a heavily manured soil, top-dressed with peatmoss 
or more manure; and if one wishes to see the blossoms at their best, lots of 
water should be given while they are in bud and flower. Plant them deep, having 
at least 2" of soil over the crown of the plants - i.e., where the roots and 
leaves join. These as well as the Siberians can be planted in the spring,sum¬ 
mer, or fall. After moving keep them well watered.
