IRIS SECTION 
Prices except where noted, 25c. 
We have so many kinds of irises, that it Seems easier and better 
to devote a section of our catalog entirely to them. Even then we do 
not feel that we have done them justice in our descriptions of them; 
they are so varied and so individual. This is especially true in the 
case of the iris species, which differ so greatly in size, habit and 
general requirements. We feel sure that if they were better known, 
the iris species would be much more extensively planted. If they are 
chosen with care, it is possible to have some species or variety of 
iris in bloom at almost every season of the year. 
We are glad to have you visit us at any time, for we almost 
always have some sort of iris in bloom, and it is much more satis- 
factory to select your plants when you can see them in bloom. If you 
can’t come to see us, we will be glad to give you additional infor- 
mation by letter.
