UNUSUAL IRIS HYBRIDS 
These hybrids result from crossing the bearded Iris 
species with the rare Oncocyclus species of Asia 
Minor, and crossing the Oncocyclus species with an¬ 
other rare species of Western Asia, the Regelia. The 
resulting hybrids are entirely different from the 
ordinary Iris and are extremely beautiful and odd. 
They are hardy and easily groAvn everywhere. 
The roots are quite small, the plants produce but 
little foliage, and the short bloom stalks never bear 
more than two or three blossoms. These hybrids are 
for the gardener who desires something unique and 
different—not for the person who wants tall stalks 
bearing large flowers.
