BULBOUS ARISES of the Dutch and Spanish groups have become very popular. Their flowers, graceful as 
orchids, are valuable as cut flowers and also lend themselves admirably to display plantings in the flower garden. 
By reason of their wide color range in pastel shades, beautiful color pictures can be created.

SPANISH IRISES (tris Hispanica)

valuable on account of their later flowering. The va- 
rieties offered here are in our opinion the finest in this 
collection.

strong grower. $0.80 for 10; $5.50 per 100. 
SPEC lEoniRISES 
RETICULATA. A variety from Asia Minor and Persia.

purple with a low yellow crest. Very fragrant and a 
gem for the rock garden. It may also be planted in pots 
and flowered indoors. Our stocks are from a very fine 
strain of selected and reselected plants. $2.75 for 10;
