IRIS 
*Dichotoma. August or Vesper Iris. 
Though quite out of resemblance to all 
other Irises, it is none the less desir- 
able. All through August the plants 
are, each aiternoon, great bouquets of 
bloom. The blossoms are carried in tall 
sprays, slenderly branching and re- 
branching. Coloring is highly variable, 
usually a cool translucent lavender 
with mahogany markings that may he 
buff-lemon, orange, copper, brown or 
LYTIAN. © Gees cs vals cs bie ce see ee 
LEPACHYS 
}+Maroon and Gold. An extraordinary 
plant, decidedly attractive, and in- 
teresting also because of its diversion 
from commonly accepted lines of form 
and coloring. The flower-heads are 
little silky columns, set successively 
with tiny blossoms, and guarded at 
the base by wide petal-rays of richest 
maroon, gold-edged. The blossoms are 
multitude, carried on long, slender 
stems all through late spring and early 
Summer Cs {bh ee

LIATRIS 
distinct, and delightfully pretty species. 
Purest lavender. Many flower-filled 
stems, each individual floret large and 
starry, with long curved stamens. ....

OXALIS 
There is an elfin daintiness about the 
exquisitely formed flowers of Oxalis, 
and an unrestricted prodigality in their 
blooming that gives them an appeal 
over many other flowers. They bloom 
for months. Very valued for edgings 
and for the Rock Garden. Handle all 
Oxalis like Gladiolus digging and stor- 
ing them in late Fall.
