New English Irises 
The Latest Creations 
1 wish that you could have seen the new 
Irises in bloom in my nurseries last summer. 
They are the best of those originated by Bliss, 
Hoyt, Denis, Yeld, Vilmorin and Dykes.- The 
wonderful creations of these men are the aris¬ 
tocrats of the modern Iris. 
I Imported More Than 
150 New Varieties in 1920-1921 
which have increased sufficiently so that I can 
offer a few plants of each at very substantial 
reductions, many at io per cent of the original 
high prices. Every Iris lover will want them; 
no Iris garden will be complete without some of 
them. Send for a list of varieties available 
for distribution. 
These new varieties will be described in the 
new edition of Better Plants by Farr, which also 
describes the more desirable perennials and 
shrubs, particularly the Iris, Peony and Lilac 
varieties—it’s free to garden lovers.

materialize into your coming

object of the House of Dreer to help 
its customers get the most out of 
every cent invested in the materials 
that make the garden grow and bloom,

years has been incorporated in
