EARLY INTERMEDIATE and FALL BLOOMING IRISES 
May 12th to June 1st 
Have you ever seen these? You really should. You too may enjoy these exquisite flowers that come to 
us a week to two weeks before the regular iris, which they resemble in every way except that they are 
not usually quite as tall. 
These, with tulips coming up between them, create a loveliness that cannot be equalled, and they are 
very reasonable. Try a few in the front of your iris bed. 
Those marked “F.B.” may or may not (our experience) bloom again in the Fall: they are the much dis¬ 
cussed “Fall Bloomers.”

JAPANESE IRIS 
We have over a hundred varieties of these exquisite iris that bloom the end of June and the first of 
July. They are huge flat flowers that make a gorgeous showing on established plants. They will grow 
in sun or partial shade, but retain their color and velvety quality better in semi-shade. Move them 
any time, after flowering preferred, planting them deep, keeping them moist upon planting and when 
coming into bloom. Peat moss worked into the soil so that the roots can go down into it proves very 
beneficial. 
We offer 4 named varieties of Japanese Irises, our selection.$1.00 
We offer 6 seedling Japanese Irises, our selection.$1.00 
IRIS RETICULATA 
The earliest to bloom, coming with the crocuses. The color is a fine rich amethyst, with a dash of yellow on each 
petal; very charming. You will never want to be without it after you once see it. Plant in the fall, 4" deep, and give 
them a heavy mulch 4". Per dozen, $2.00
