IRIS 
Tall Bearded Iris. Formerly called German Iris and Flags. Named for 
the Goddess of the Rainbow because of their rich colors. These belong to the 
large genus Iris in the order Iridaceae. 
Ordinarily we think of Iris as blooming only in the spring. Please note 
two varieties listed below that are almost perpetual bloomers in mild weather. 
They quit blooming only in coldest winter weather (it is seldom that cold here) 
or in mid-summer heat. 
The following are offered as specials. Our complete long list is offered 
in our Iris Price List which is issued in May or June as they are usually 
transplanted just after blooming. This Price List is sent when issued only 
to those who request it on a post-card. 
Culture. Iris may be grown in any soil but very sandy soil is not quite as 
good as the heavier. Do not use any manure. Plant in full sun. Cover rhizome 
only one inch. Iris may be transplanted at any time of year. Let them rest in 
late summer for best flowering. 
Cecil Houdyshel. Tall lavender plicata. 25c ea. $2.00 doz. 
Bobby Houdyshel. Dwarf phlox pink plicata. 10 ea. $1.00 per doz. 
Eleanor Brooks. Like Bobby Houdyshel but taller, and has more yellow 
in throat and a deeper tone of phlox pink. 25c. 
Everblooming Plicata. Our seedling not yet named but offered for trial. 
Please report on it. Standards heavily flushed Saccardo’s Violet. Falls, white 
bordered and veined in throat with violet. Plicata type. Not a large flower. 
Stems 15" to 20". Pretty. Nearly always in bloom. $2.50. 
Golden Cataract. A pure deep golden yellow. Here it blooms the year 
around except when very hot in mid-summer or when winter is very cold. No 
other Iris except our Everblooming Plicata approaches it in profusion of flowers. 
We want everyone to have this gorgeous new Iris. Therefore we reduce the 
price again. $1.00 each. $9 doz. 
Iris Collections. 35 unnamed seedling Iris, $1.00. Ten excellent, modern 
Iris for $1.00 including Bobby H., Cecil H., Eleanor Brooks and 7 more of our 
selection. 20 varieties good Iris, $1.00. Last two are all labeled. 
Tigridia. The Mexican Shell Flower. Many shades of yellow, orange, pink 
and red, spotted and very striking and beautiful. Plant in thef spring in semi¬ 
shade, about 2 in. or 3 in. deep. Dig and store in the fall. Stored bulbs must 
not dry out too much. Bulbs do not keep late in spring so order as early as 
possible. 15c. ea. Ten for $1.00.
