Collection No. 6—THE WORLD'S FINEST 
SIBERIAN IRIS 
This is the finest set of Siberian Iris obtainable anywhere 
in the world at any price. I will include in this collection 
several varieties that sold recently for $5.00 and $10.00 for a 
single plant. Many eminent authorities consider the Siberian 
Iris the finest of the Iris family. They are prodigious bloomers 
and make excellent cut flowers. A single plant will soon form 
an established clump that will produce 50 or more flower 
stalks. In form they differ from all other Iris. Devote a spot 
in your garden to these lovely Siberian Iris; they will fill it 
with beauty. They are the easiest of all Iris to grow and may 
be planted anywhere in the garden, either in full sun or 
semi-shade.

Collection No. 7—CRESTED IRIS 
This group is distinguished by a prominent crest, similar to 
a cock's comb, which extends down the centre of the falls. 
The crest is composed of the same material as the balance of 
the petals and is sometimes beautifully frilled and one of the 
attractions of this group. This collection will include Tec- 
torum, the famous blue "Roof Iris" of China and Japan; 
Cristata, a lovely, fragrant, amethyst-blue Miniature^ for a 
semi-shady pocket in the rock garden, or any other semi-shady 
position in the garden; Cristata Alba, a white form; and 
Gracilipes, a lovely pinkish-lavender Japanese Miniature.

lished plant will produce hundreds of lovely soft bluish-violet 
flowers in a single season. Height 30 to 36 in.

Collection No. 11—AUTUMN-FLOWERING IRIS 
A few years ago there were no Autumn-Flowering Iris. This 
new race is one of the recent triumphs of the hybridizer's 
skill. They blossom twice a year, once in the spring and again 
quite profusely in the fall, from Sept, until frost. In this col¬ 
lection I will include eight different varieties, including a rich 
blue, a fine yellow, a snow white, a bright purple, and four 
others. You may now have a garden full of Irises in the FALL, 
as well as other seasons.

is from Algeria, Asia Minor and Northern Syria. Flowers all 
winter long in the open in the Southern States; or in the pro¬ 
tection of a cold frame in the North. Easy to grow. Color is 
a lovely blue.

Collection No. 8—BEARDLESS IRIS SPECIES AND HYBRIDS 
Rare and Graceful Flowers for Cutting 
and Landscaping 
For continuation of the Iris Flowering Season, nothing is 
more important than these marvelous and little known Beard¬ 
less Iris Species and Hybrids; for they fill in the gap in the 
flowering season between the Tall Bearded Iris and the Jap¬ 
anese Iris. 
The flowers are ideal for cutting, being interesting in form, 
vivid in coloring and permitting of graceful arrangement. 
They are not only different from all other Iris, but each variety 
has an individual distinction all its own. This collection in¬ 
cludes a burnished metallic copper color, a rich Royal Purple, 
a lovely soft blue, a deep yellow, a fine red, a lovely white 
and gold, and others equally distinctive. This collection will 
also include the famous newly discovered Louisiana Species, 
Giganticoerulea, which just three years ago sold at $5.00 for 
a single plant. All labelled.
