The Iris is a magnificent hardy perennial and a general favorite. They have 
been referred to as the Orchid of the hardy garden. The Iris offers innumerable 
color combinotions of unsurpossed beauty, and the lovely structure of the flower 
is difficult to describe. It is one of our easiest perennials to grow, requiring 
a minimum of care and thriving under conditions of soil and weather in which 
other perennials would fail. In the following carefully selected list a splendid 
selection is offered.
