English Irises 
English Irises 
Of all the irises we think these are the most 
beautiful. The colors range from white to deep 
blue, with the most enchanting shades of lavender, 
orchid and mauve in between. The blossoms are 
larger than the Spanish and Duth irises and come 
later than those types. Plant about 4 inches deep, 
during September if possible. 
Mixed English Irises. Splendid assortment of 
these magnificent flowers; wide variety of lovely 
colors. 1 2 for 80c, 100 for $6.00. 
Fine IRISES that 
• 
These fine irises are not grown as much as they 
deserve to be. For garden decoration and as cut 
flowers they are graceful and long lasting. The 
colors are clear and delightful. By proper choice 
of varieties one can have blooms for two months 
or more. Wedgewood comes first, followed by the 
other Dutch varieties, then the Spanish, and final¬ 
ly the beautiful English irises end the season. The 
Dutch irises we list here are mostly the new de 
Graaff hybrids which are rapidly superseding the 
older varieties. They are distinguished by a nar¬ 
row stripe of bright orange-yellow on the falls. 
Iris bulbs should be planted about 4 inches 
deep in well drained soil. October planting is 
probably best in most parts of the country. Where 
the winters are severe the beds should be mulched 
after the freezing begins. 
Spanish Irises 
Cajanus. Large graceful blossom of clear gold¬ 
en yellow on tall slender stems. One of the finest 
yellow irises for the garden and one of the most 
delightful cut flowers in the whole list. 
King of the Blues. Very fine deep blue. A very 
strong and vigorous grower. 
King of the Whites. Graceful flowers of the 
purest white with a small orange stripe on the 
falls. 
Prices of the Spanish irises separately or in 
any assortment: 12 for 50c, 3 doz. for $1.25, 100 
for $3.00. 
From California. “Thank you for your prompt 
service and carefully packed bulbs. They were in 
Perfect condition.” 
From W ashington. “So far the bulbs I have re¬ 
ceived from you have given the most complete 
satisfaction.”
