Japanese Iris 
MODERN ORCHIDS OF THE GARDEN 
For many years the trade throughout the country has recognized the unparalleled excellence of our Japanese 
Iris list, and the fine quality of our plants. This year again the list is the best that can be had in Japanese 
Iris. Extremely important is the fact that we have been favored with the best possible weather and soil condi¬ 
tions for their perfect development. The most technical growing culture could not do for them what nature 
did in this past growing season. The Iris which we offer are not to be confused with over-aged, run-out ma¬ 
terial, much of which is being unloaded on the market at the present time. All of our Japanese Iris are with¬ 
out exception, young, vital, vigorous stock of a generous size, and will give you an abundance of flower the 
first season after planting—the perfect results which you have come to expect from Japanese Iris prepared for 
you by the Joseph F. Martin Co.
