Enjoy 12 Months 
Why be Satisfied with a Few Weeks of Iris Bloom, when you can enjoy these beautiful 
“Daughters of the Rainbow” from spring until frost and then on through the winter. I have ar¬ 
ranged the following 12 collections in the order in which they bloom, for a complete succession 
of flowers throughout the year. You may order the entire 12 collections, or only such groups 
as you may need to complete a full season of Iris bloom in your own garden. 
Each collection contains the very cream of a definite Iris Group, personally selected by me 
to cover the widest possible color range. 
Every Plant Will Be Carefully Labelled and 
all will be strong, healthy, flowering size 
plants. You will be pleased with these care¬ 
fully planned collections. Postpaid anywhere 
in the U. S. Cultural Directions accompany 
all shipments. 
Iris Fulva 
One of the varieties 
in Collection No. 8 
Collection No. 3—POGOCYCLUS HYBRIDS 
This race contains many of the most handsome 
Iris in the world and this collection contains only 
the finest of them ; including Wm. Mohr, the very 
best and highest rated of all. Only a few years ago 
Wm. Mohr sold for $25.00 for a single plant. The 
Pogocyclus Hybrids follow the Miniatures in bloom, 
flowering throughout May in our Northern states 
(a month earlier in the south) and continue until 
the next group comes into flower. These Pogocyclus 
Hybrids are very rare and are as different from all 
other Iris as though they belonged to another planet; 
even the varieties themselves differing greatly from 
each other. All are hardy anywhere and as beau¬ 
tiful as the finest orchids. All labelled.

Collection No. 1—RETICULATA IRIS 
The First Flowers of Springtime 
Blossoms in March in our Northern States, Right 
Through Snow and Ice. (A month earlier in the 
South.) A rare prize for the Rock Garden, or any 
other spot where a mass of early flowers is wanted. 
Color, rich royal purple, with lovely golden vein- 
ing at the throat. Violet scented. Rugged and 
easily grown. Free flowering, on 12 inch stalks. 
Four-sided, square, grass-like foliage. Hardy any¬ 
where. I know of a clump that has flowered undis¬ 
turbed for 50' years in a New England garden. A 
dozen or more bulbs should be planted together, 
about two inches apart.

Collection No. 2—LOVELY MINIATURE IRIS 
FOR THE ROCK GARDEN 
Also Useful for Edging Small Beds and Borders, etc. 
These Miniature jewels follow the Crocus and 
Iris Reticulata in bloom during the early spring. 
They are prodigious bloomers and have all of the 
characteristics of the Tall Bearded Iris, but on a 
smaller scale. In height these little gems range 
from 6 to 10 inches. This collection will contain 15 
plants in at least six choice varieties, carefully 
selected to cover the color range, including a lovely 
rich wine shade, an exquisite soft sky blue, a glis¬ 
tening snow white, a rich golden yellow, a deep 
velvety purple, etc. A treasure collection for the 
rock garden, or for planting in front of the taller 
Irises, or for the front of the perennial border. 
Haidy anywhere. All labelled.

Collection No. 4—EARLY-FLOWERING IRIS 
ARISTOCRATS 
English, French and American Hybridizers have 
helped to prolong the Iris season by producing this 
Early Flowering race of Tall Bearded Iris Aris¬ 
tocrats. They are easy to grow and hardy anywhere. 
They follow the Pogocyclus Hybrids in bloom and 
will come into full flower in your garden while 
your neighbors are still looking for buds on their 
Iris. Each variety is a Masterpiece; one was in¬ 
troduced recently at $40.00' a plant; another sold 
recently at $25.00 for a single plant. Each one is 
a different color. One of them is the deepest colored 
Iris grown, so intense that it seems to be dripping 
with color; and so velvety that the entire flower 
seems to be cut out of the finest plush. They are all 
large and handsome.
