IRIS LIST 
And Digging Time Prices on Special Bulbs 
This list is sent only to those who have 
requested it or have recently bought Iris. 
Getting it out is a lot of work at a very busy 
time. We can afford to send it only to those 
who buy. It goes to so many this year that 
we are forced to cut down the list. Therefore 
if you want the list next year you must at 
least send a small order this year. 
Iris. We have revised prices with the pur¬ 
pose of saving you money on every item. 
Possibly by much effort you may find an 
occasional item somewhere at a lower price, 
but not on the total of even a small order, 
I think. Our Iris are genuine, full size, 
rhizomes. The same variety that you pay 
more for. For example,—our Magnifica at 
15c is the same one that many price at around 
35c. An Iris garden without Magnifica is 
incomplete. 
Even our 5c and 10c varieties are gorgeous. 
Many of them sold once for $5 to $15 or more 
for one root. Take Bobby Houdyshel for ex¬ 
ample. I want everyone to have it. It is as 
dainty and sweet as a pink orchid,—and for 
ICc this year,—temporary and special price. 
Digging Time Specials. Digging time brings 
extra heavy expenses in a normally quiet sea¬ 
son with reduced sales. In order to bring in 
more dollars to meet heavy expenses, a few 
items are chosen for offering at reduced prices 
that are good only until the fall catalog ap¬ 
pears. For description, culture, etc. see next 
fall’s catalog (or last). 
Postage Prepaid only on orders for $1.00 or 
more. Under $1.00 send 10c extra. Remit bj’- 
check or money order if possible. 
California Customers. Don’t forget to add 
3% Sales Tax. 
Iris Culture. Lis can be moved any time, 
but best time is soon after flowering. Planted 
before August 1 they are sure to bloom next 
spring if culture is right. Early planting 
gives larger clumps, more flowers. Cover 
rhizome only one inch. Plant in full sun or 
very slight shade preferably. Do not fertilize. 
Water freely after growtn begins. 
Name a few substitutes if possible.
