grees below zero last winter, and came up and bloomed all 
summer. Another thing in its favor, it requires shade to 
grow in, at least partial shade. So many persons write us

IRIS GERMANICA (German Iris) 
The “Fleur de Lis” of France. 
No other flower has so many combinations of color, espe- I

beautiful in form, texture and coloring as any Orchid, and 
many are delightfully fragrant. They are not particular as to j 
soil; will grow where anything will, but do better in well- i 
drained location.
