IRIS SECTION 
Of all the many kinds of plants which grow, the iris species is the 
most versatile. There are tiny dwarf varieties, and stately tall kinds 
that grow more than four feet high. There are iris blossoms as dainty 
as orchids, tall flamboyant bearded irises and deep sombre varieties 
from the east. There are few weeks of the year in which some sort of 
iris does not bloom, and few situations in the garden where some 
variety will not thrive, from the bearded iris in the hot sunny border to 
the water iris in the pool. Irises vary in color: white, all shades of 
blue and purple, yellow, orange and bronze; in fact all colors but 
bright red. 
We are glad to welcome visitors to our garden at any time, even in 
winter when the lovely iris Stylosa is in bloom. In March many of the 
bulbous irises flower, and early in April the dwarf bearded irises begin 
to bloom. From then until July the garden is full of color. We recom¬ 
mend a visit to our gardens during the blooming season, as we feel 
that better selections can be made if the plants are seen in bloom in 
the field. It is impossible to give an accurate description of the many 
delicate shades of color in the few words which are available to us in 
the catalogue. 
A list of intermediate and tall bearded irises will be sent to anyone 
who wishes to write for it.
