JAPANESE IRIS (IRIS KAEMPFERI) 
Most all iris growers concede that Japanese Iris (Iris 
Kaempferi) are superior to all other varieties of Iris, and 
a field of these at sunset with their large, broad petals 
of many varied hues is a sight that one cannot but help 
admire. 
There is perhaps more confusion in the names of Jap¬ 
anese Iris than in almost any other section and from fre¬ 
quent importations from Japan, we have found that there 
would be two or three different names or numbers given 
HOW TO PLANT AN IRIS 
This drawing shows how a Ger¬ 
man Iris plant should be prepared 
for planting. We cut back the 
foliage to about 6 inches before 
shipping. Spread the roots evenly 
in all directions and work the soil 
between and around; 
then firm with the 
hands or feet. Contin¬ 
ue this process until 
about two-thirds of 
the rhizome is covered, 
leave the remainder 
exposed to the 
and air.
