BEAUTIFUL IRISES FROM FOREIGN LANDS 
IRIS STYLOSA 
SATURN 
REGELIO-CYCLUS HYBRIDS 
We are growing a number of hybrids of this type, but are listing 
only two this year. They are particularly vigorous and easy to grow, 
much easier than Susiana. 
SATURN 
Beautiful deep purple veining on a grey ground. The flowers are 
not so round as in Susiana, but are large and of excellent substance. 
Easy to handle as a cut flower. 2 feet. 50c; 3 for $1.00 
PERSIAN PRINCESS 
A pogo-regelia hybrid which is superior to anything of its type 
we have ever seen. The large, well-shaped flowers are Bishop’s 
purple veined with Madder violet, the haft being veined with seal 
brown. The falls are exceptionally rich and velvety. A single stalk 
used as a cut flower is sure to cause a sensation. This Iris is taller 
than others of its type, growing to a full 3 feet in our qarden. 
$1.50; 3 for $3.50 
WINTER-BLOOMING IRISES 
The garden use of the irises in this group is reserved for those 
who live in the milder climates. 
The plants start blooming in the fall and bloom throughout the 
winter. They grow wild in Algeria, Greece and Asia Minor. The 
foliage is grass-like and the flowers are borne on stem-like parts, 
really elongated perianth tubes, 8 to 16 inches long. The flower is 
one of great refinement and is delightful in the house. 
Plant preferably from August to December. We do not advise 
planting later than February except in balled clumps. 
STYLOSA ALTAFLORA 
The flowers in this selected form are taller and bluer than in the 
ordinary stylosa and the foliage is narrower. It is a superior form 
of this beautiful iris. Each 35c; dozen $3.50 
STYLOSA MARGINATA 
Blue flowers with a white edging. Somewhat broader foliage than 
above, and makes a very rank growth. Each 25c; dozen $2.50 
ONCOCYCLUS 
IRIS SUSIANA (The Mourning Iris) 
A wonderful flower of large size, borne on 12-inch stems. It 
looks as if it were almost black, flecked with grey. In reality it has 
purple-black veining and spotting on a grey ground. The standards 
are somewhat lighter than the falls. Fall delivery only. $1.50 
CRESTED IRISES 
JAPONICA 
Native of Central China and Japan. The foliage is evergreen. 
The flowers are borne in large numbers on 2 to 3-foot branching 
stems. Pale blue brightened with yellow. Segments wavy. Give 
partial shade and more water than for bearded iris. 50c 
WATTII 
A beautiful and rare iris from the Himalaya Mountains. The flowers 
are like those of Japonica, but white and are carried in panicles on 
4 to 5 foot stems. 75c 
MILLIKEN 
Permanent Iris Label 
20c 
EACH 
$17.50 per Hundred 
Due to popular demand we are 
offering our permanent labels for the 
convenience of those who wish to 
keep the names of their Iris or of other 
plants. The label is a stamped alum¬ 
inum tag securely fastened to a stiff 
galvanized wire stake feet long. 
We believe this is an ideal label be¬ 
cause it is always in a position easy to 
read and because it is entirely 
weatherproof. Simply send us the 
names of the irises or other plants for 
which you desire permanent labels.
