Foreword 
It is now time to think of planting iris. 
The cool and. wet summer has helped growth won¬ 
derfully. This catalogue is brief, because of 
the lateness of the season. But the list has 
been carefully compiled to include only the 
most distinctive varieties, that canbe offered 
at reasonable prices. There is no greater joy 
than watching the new iris grow and develop, 
and wait for the bloom. No flower has such 
elusive coloring as iris. 
If your planting is old and the blooms are 
scant, dig up the plants, and reset with new 
varieties. The finer kinds are offered at such 
low prices, that it does not pay to keep the 
obsolete varieties in your garden. 
We have put in large plantings of tulips 
and a collection of daffodils and you are in¬ 
vited to see them in late April and early May 
and order for fall delivery. A perennial and 
rock plant list is issued for local trade. A 
peony exhibition garden of over 200 varieties, 
including species, has been planted along the 
highway in front of our place, and oriental 
poppies, nearby . Our hemerocallis list includes 
over 40 varieties, and they are now at their 
height of bloom, the most dependable summer 
perennial. If you are interested in procuring 
any of these lists, please write and specify 
which you desire.
