DUTCH IRIS. THERESA SCHWARTZ 
DUTCH IRIS 
This group of Bulbous Iris is of recent intro¬ 
duction. They are very superior to the old 
Spanish types; having more substance, bloom 
earlier, and stems are longer. The brilliancy 
and purity of color of these orchid like flowers 
is unsuri^assed. As cut flowers they remain in 
good condition for a remarkable length of 
time, and in the garden have a blooming 
range of about six weeks. Although they are 
very hardy, a mulch will be beneficial in ex¬ 
treme climates. Plant 5 inches deep. 
Numbers in parenthesis used in descriptions 
represent time of blooming, (1) being earliest 
and (7) the latest; 24" efiuals height in inches.
