THE GORGEOUS IRIS KAEMPFERI (Japanese Iris) 
The months of February, March and April are good months 
for planting and again during August and September (not later). 
They require rich soil (no Bonemeal and no Lime), sun or half 
shade and abundant supply of water just before and during their 
blooming period. They will not thrive in poor, thin, sandy soil. 
A favorite spot for them in Japan is along side brooks or on the 
margins of pools, but never in water, though you can take up 
a blooming plant, pot it, and float it in your pool while the plant 
is in bloom, later planting it back in its place. 
We sell two sized clumps, and aim the smaller one sturdy 
enough to give you blooms the first season, but usually, except 
for very large clumps it requires this Iris two seasons to be- 
come well established and make a gorgeous display of twelve or 
more blooming stalks to the clump. 
PUDOR’S EXTRA SELECTED JAPANESE SEEDLINGS 
Every season we grow Japanese Iris seedlings; it takes two 
and sometimes three years to get them into full flowering. Out 
of 100 clumps we select possibly a dozen outstanding, unusual 
ones, often only six varieties, which we consider worth saving 
and putting on the market. At first, we give them a number 
and later on a name, often suggested by an admiring and appre- 
ciating customer.
