SPURIA 
Spurias are among the easiest to grow and after planting require very little care, 
although they will respond to careful cultivation and fertilization. They should be planted 
in September and kept fairly moist at all times, although they will do fairly well under 
dry conditions.

STYLOSA MARGINATA 
OCHROLEUCA 
UNGUICULARIS IRIS 
Winter Blooming Iris 
They are highly adaptable and will grow 
in any kind of soil and exposure except in 
dense shade or too much moisture. They 
should be protected by a heavy mulch in 
cold sections. Planting should be done 
before the first of February and kept 
moist until well established. To prevent 
flowers hiding among the foliage plant 
them where they can be thoroughly dried 
out during the summer. This will cause 
the foliage to wilt and lie flat on the 
ground, allowing the flowers to make a 
mass of color in the center of the plant.

with grassy foliage and purple veined flow¬ 
ers. Ideal for the rock garden. 6 in. 50c.

rant. 12 in. 50c.

blooming iris. A very fragrant, violet iris
