Single Japanese Iris 
Beautiful 
T HESE are among the most gorgeous of the entire 
Iris family. There is nothing more showy than 
these fine Japanese Iris and as they blossom after 
the others have finished flowering, they thus prolong 
the Iris season for several weeks. There are giant 
singles and doubles, self colors, mottled, striped and 
blended effects, subtle soft tints and intense deep colors in a 
most comprehensive range. They are different in form from 
all other Irises. Many of them are as large as a dinner plate. 
Some of those listed below have never been offered by me 
before, having never until now had sufficient stock to list them. 
No flower garden should be without a collection of these 
gorgeous Japanese Iris. 
Anyone may be successful with them by following simple 
cultural directions accompanying all shipments. 
Every variety in this collection of Japanese Iris is of superb 
quality. If you wish me to select the varieties for your order 
I will be glad to do so, and I am sure you will be more than 
pleased with my selection. 
Planting and cultural directions accompany all shipments.
