SIBERIAN IRIS 
The Siberian Irises are very graceful and are much used in landscape work as the plants 
with their rich upright growth and grasslike foliage add very materially to the beauty of any 
planting in which they are used. Wonderful to use about water pools, bird walks, etc. Per¬ 
fectly hardy. 
In our show room we usually plant clumps of Siberian Iris around our bird baths. We re¬ 
ceive more orders for this Siberian Iris from our visitors who see it in bloom than we often 
do during a whole season when we depend upon the descriptions in our catalog for our orders. 
Siberian Iris works in nicely with other flowers for bouquet work.
