THE EARLY INTERMEDIATE IRIS 
These early Iris, blooming between the pumilas and the tall bearded, are very 
necessary in our garden pictures. They furnish fine color masses, and combine very 
effectively with the Darwin tulips. 
Hybridizers have recently been turning their attention to this group, and are 
producing large flowered varieties of fine form and color.
