Olds* Iris 
We consider the Iris one of the moBt satisfactory and easiest flowers to 
grow. They seem to succeed planted under all conditions and soils and 
will thrive and bloom where many flowers fail. Iris bloom in June and 
they are moBt attractive when planted in long borders in the garden 
or along the garden paths. 
The tall bearded Iris grow from 24 to 42 inches in height. Never 
plant Iris deep; just cover the roots.
