1 T gives me great pleasure to present this "Calendar of Iris 
m Flowering Dates" and I believe you will find it one of the 
^ J most interesting pieces of literature that has ever been pro¬ 
duced on the subject of Iris, in such compact form. It will 
show you how it is possible for you to enjoy Iris in bloom in your own 
garden EVERY MONTH OF THE YEAR, merely by adding such groups 
as you do not already have. 
It also "ties up" with my 48 page Iris Catalogue, by showing at the 
bottom of each group the pages of my catalogue in which you may find 
complete listings of other varieties that flower at the same time. In this 
way, it becomes a valuable aid in studying this catalogue.

Hybrids, next page) 
But in addition to being an Iris Calendar, it also tells you briefly 
something about the origin of the different groups of Iris, and I am sure 
you will find it interesting to note how the World's storehouse of plant 
life, and the results of the genius of the world's Plant Wizards, have been 
assembled, to be enjoyed in our American gardens. 
But it also does one other thing. A 48-page catalogue is apt to 
be confusing, and so, for the benefit of those who do not wish to take 
the time that would be involved in studying the different groups, I have 
arranged a well balanced collection in each group, each collection being 
carefully thought out to cover the color range. I can assure you that, 
even if you should exercise the greatest care and give the subject con¬ 
siderable thought and study, you would not be likely to make a better 
choice, for I know each variety personally, have put the results of more 
than 30 years' experience into the making of these collections, and have 
planned each collection with the greatest care. 
In the event that your garden plans are more extensive than would 
be covered by these collections, I will be glad to co-operate with you in 
more elaborate plantings. Every year I plan many Iris plantings, running 
from a few plants to several thousand.
