TALL BEARDED IRIS 
(German Iris) 
IRIS BORDERING WALK 
Iris are very easy to grow, adapting themselves to almost 
any soil or situation but preferring well drained soil and a 
sunny exposure. They are very hardy and once planted will 
last for years, needing only to be divided and reset every few 
years as they multiply and become crowded. Nearly all are 
fragrant. Plant not over one inch deep. A little lime is good. 
The Iris has been wonderfully improved so that we now have 
nearly all the colors of the rainbow. The best time to plant is 
July to September. Deliveries begin about the middle of July.
