THE WORLD'S FINEST SIBERIAN IRIS 
Russia and Central Europe are the home of Iris ' Siberica," while "Orientalis" comes from Manchuria and Japan. 
These two species have been crossed and the qualities and characteristics of both parents have been blended to¬ 
gether and intermingled to produce a race that is now commonly called "Siberian Irises." 
These dainty flowers are not so large as the Tall Bearded or the Japanese Iris, but they are borne in the 
greatest profusion. They are hardy anywhere, of the easiest culture, and are most accommodating of all Irises, as 
they will flower profusely in full sun or semi-shade, in a damp or a dry spot, their preference being for a moist spot. 
A single plant when established will form a clump that will produce 50 or more flower stalks. The flowers grow on 
thin, holl ow stems, and have ornamental, grass-like foliage. In addition to being unusually ornamental for the home 
garden, they are especially fine for landscape work or for bordering a brook or pond, where they should be just 
above the water line. 
They will take care of themselves anywhere. As cut flowers, and for artistic arrangements they are exquisite. 
Devote a spot in your garden to the lovely Siberian Iris. They will fill it with beauty.

BEARDLESS IRIS SPECIES and HYBRIDS 
For continuation of the Iris flowering season nothing is more important than these marvelous and little known 
Beardless Iris Species and Hybrids, for they fill in the gap in the flowering season between the Tall Bearded Iris and 
the Japanese Iris, flowering throughout the month of June in our Northern gardens (a month earlier in the South) 
and continuing in bloom until the Japanese Iris are in full flower. This group consists of attractive European, Asi¬ 
atic and American Species; and many beautiful hybrids created by crossing these various types. 
The flowers are ideal for cutting as they lend themselves naturally to the most artistic 
arrangements. They are not only different in form from all other Iris, but each variety also has 
an individual distinction of form and color al its own. 
They are fine for any part of the garden, but especially useful for the semi-shady nook 
where other Iris would not do so well. There is a congenial spot in every garden where these 
beauties will make themselves at home. They are hardy anywhere, and once planted they may 
be left to themselves for years. There is nothing that surpasses them for naturalizing in bold 
masses. Here are just a few of the most attractive of these Beardless Species and Hybrids:
