IRIS

HARDY IRIS OR FLAGS 
This type has beautiful orchid-like flowers and broad foliage, which is 
evergreen. Suitable for planting in borders in light shade or sun. Hardy 
Iris require little care and thrive in almost any kind of soil that is well 
drained. In heavy soil we suggest adding a small amount of lime or wood 
ashes. Plant 2 inches deep and 15 inches apart. 
Transplant about every third year to prevent over-crowding.
