PICK-UP MIXTURE —This fine mixture was offered in our 1925 
catalog for the first time when a few thousand were dis¬ 
tributed on order to our customers. Its high quality has 
made it so popular with our customers we are sold out every 
year long before the shipping season closes. Into this mix¬ 
ture are thrown all unidentified bulbs picked up in the field 
and from the floor of our bulb house and many small lots 
of good named varieties are added to it from time to time, 
worth many times the price you would pay for them if pur¬ 
chased under label. We believe this mixture to be the high¬ 
est quality ever offered at anywhere near the low price we 
are charging for it. While the supply lasts, we will fill 
orders at the following low prices. 
Doz. 35c, 100 $2,501, postpaid; or $2.00 for 100 by express 
not prepaid. 
Kemp's Orchid Flowered 
Japanese Iris 
These beautiful Japanese Irises were originated from hand 
pollenized seed, several years ago, and have been pronounced by 
expert Iris growers to be the most beautiful collection of Jap¬ 
anese Iris in existence. Therefore, I feel confident we are offer¬ 
ing a strain of Japanese Iris more beautiful and more desirable 
than any hitherto procurable. 
With these wonderfully beautiful Irises, it is now possible to 
achieve a color effect quite equal to that produced with the 
German or Liberty Irises, and at a time of the year when there 
is a dearth of bright colors in the Garden, which makes them 
all the more desirable. 
The Japanese Irises are very hardy, and free flowering and will 
grow in almost any situation, where the soil is naturally moist 
and somewhat acid, their natural habitat being along the mar¬ 
gins of ponds and small streams. 
We are offering twenty-two varieties here, embracing quite 
a wide range of color, and the prices at which they are offered 
have been approved by one of America’s leading commercial Iris 
growers, and are good strong divisions of four or more leads, 
with good roots. 
TERMS: —Cash with order, to customers without an estab¬ 
lished credit. In all cases, when credit is desired by persons 
unknown to us, please give BANK reference. 
NOTE: —The color descriptions of several varieties offered in 
this list, were arrived at by use of Ridgeway’s color chart, and 
are nearly correct as it was possible for me to work them out. 
TLEASE NOTE CAREFULLY: —All varieties in the list (ex¬ 
cepting where noted) 50 cents each, $5.00 per dozen for large 
blooming size divisions. 25 cents each\ $2.50 per dozen for 
small divisions of one or two fans each.
