Iris 
Iris gernianica. (German Iris or Flag.) The 
German Iris is one of our most desirable early 
spring-blooming plants. It is a vigorous 
grower and is of easy cultivation. Flowers 
are large and conspicuous. The colors are 
white, blue, purple, yellow, and variously 
veined and striped. Every garden should 
contain a collection of these Flags. 
Iris Kaemferi. (Japanese Iris.) These hand¬ 
some spring-blooming plants are becoming 
popular. They begin blooming about the mid¬ 
dle of April and continue in bloom for five or 
six weeks. Many of the blooms have a dia¬ 
meter of from 8 to 12 inches, and are of 
various colors—white, purple, violet, mauve, 
magenta—variously marked and penciled. 
They are invaluable in herbaceous plantings; 
are extremely hardy and easily cultivated. 
Most effective where planted along the borders 
of ponds or streams. If the flower-stalks are 
cut just as the buds are expanding, and taken 
indoors, the flowers will last a long time, 
and as one flower fades another bud will 
open until all have shown their beautiful 
colors. With proper attention, this Iris will 
give a wealth of bloom and color. Assorted 
colors. 
PRICES: Strong roots, 25c each; $2.00 for 10; 
$17.50 per 100. 
Peonies 
We offer Peonies in white, red and pink. 
Peonies do best in rich, rather moist, loamy soil, 
and if plants are protected from the hot after¬ 
noon sun they will give excellent results. They 
should have a liberal supply of water at all 
times, especially when in bloom during April 
and May. Fertilize well with cow manure. 
Keep the ground well cultivated. If these few 
simple directions are carried out, the result 
will be most satisfacory. Plant during fall. 
PRICES: 50c each; $4.00 per ten.
