e tallest growing and the most beautiful of the Iris. They prefer moist land but will grow on 
ordinary soil. They are permanent and we believe you will be pleased with your trial of them. 
Water well at blooming time. Plant only in the spring. 
We have tested these for several years and list a collection of best varieties chosen for color 
and vigor. 
Good clumps at 35c each; $1.00 for 3. 
Gekka-no-nami. White, base of petals and veins yellow. 
Hizakwa. Purple, with 6 frilled petals. 
iSakata. Delicate lavender, veined purple; 3 petals.

Siberian Iris 
These follow the German Iris in blossom and prove quite an addition to the garden or border. 
The leaves are thin, long, and graceful and the flowers usually nestled in the foliage, just 
showing their blossoms. More dependable than Spanish Iris and should be planted. We offer 
two colors: Blue and White. 20c each; $1.00 for 6; $2.00 per dcz.

Gold Imperial 
These lovely flowers have been called "Orchids of the Garden." 
Even the most matter-of-fact gardener will admit that few per¬ 
ennials are more gay and colorful. They will grow and bloom 
anywhere—sun or shade, good soil or poor soil, attention or 
neglect mean little to Iris, they thrive anyway. All the varieties 
in the list are highly rated by the American Iris Society (none 
less than 7.4 points) which vouches for the quality of plant and 
bloom. 
In planting, do not cover the roots more than 2 inches, 
nor use manure as a plant food. Bone meal may be used 
sparingly. 
25c each $1.25 per 6 $2.50 per doz. 
The figures (9.4 and others) indicate rating. 
For Post and Insurance, add 10 per cent.
