ORCHIDS OF THE GARDEN" is a name often given to the hardy 
Iris. Everyone succeeds with Iris for it will thrive and bloom abundantly 
in most any soil. There are few garden flowers that are as gay and col¬ 
orful. 
PLANTING DIRECTIONS—Plant the roots just below the surface in 
an open, sunny spot. Protect with a light covering of hay or straw in 
late fall. 
In the description the "S" refers to the "standards" (upright petals) 
and "F" to the "falls" (lower petals). The varieties are grouped accord¬ 
ing to color effect.
