Bearded Iris Varieties 
There have been such rapid strides in the development of the common garden Iris 
in the past few years that it has resulted in a great deal of confusion as to what is and 
what is not a good Iris. Many growers still carry a long list of the old varieties without 
realizing that they have been greatly surpassed by new ones. We carry a small stock 
of these newer types and can direct you to a grower right here in this neighborhood 
who has one of the most outstanding collections in the country.
