IRISES 
Irises may be planted successfully at any time, 
when the ground is not frozen. The best time is 
during July and August, as this gives the plant 
sufficient time to obtain a g*ood root growth before 
freezing weather. 
In the following descriptions, the letter S refers 
to the standards, or upright petals and the letter F 
indicates the falls, or lower petals. 
Three irises of the same variety sold for two 
times the single price, if for shipment after July 15.
