This group of Iris should pave of special interest to connoisseurs and 
Iris Specialists, as most of the items in this group are offered by me for 
the first time, and several of them are not available anywhere else in the 
United States. My stock of all of these varieties is quite limited. Only brief 
descriptions can be given, on account of the limited space available.
