IRIS SIBERICA 
Siberian Iris 
The ordinary Iris Siberica is too well known for detailed description, ^ \Ve 
cannot help, however, bringing to your attention the fine assortment of varieties 
that we are listing below. AVe do not know of anything that is more striking than 
a nice planting of Siberian Iris in early spring. They grow to a height of 3 to 4 
feet. Good established clumps will produce from 15 to 30 long flower^ spikes. 
Vases displayed in a living room create a wonderful atmosphere. In addition to 
landscape plantings they are ideal for bordering brooks or ponds.
