| FLOWERS OF THE FUTURE j 
“Many people both in this country and in Europe are of the opinion that 1 
| the Iris is ‘the coming flower.’ This belief is an inspiration to real lovers | 
| of the genus, because it will mean a more common knowledge of the riches | 
i that they are already enjoying.”—B. V. Morrison in June Country Life. 1 
I I' has been my opinion for some years that j 
Irises will some day obtain the recognition [ 
they richly deserve. At present the demand for f 
new varieties indicates that they will be used in S 
greater quantities than ever before, particularly I 
when formal effects are desired. 
August and September are specially favorable { 
months for planting Irises, and my new Wyomis- j 
sing Seedlings offer, to most people, novelty in \ 
pattern and color so much sought for at this time, f 
Some of my seedlings which I particularly | 
recommend are 
Chester Hunt 
Hiawatha 
Mary Garden 
Minnehaha 
Navajo 
Pauline 
Red Cloud 
Rose Unique
