POGOCYCLUS IRIS 
This very interesting section is the result of crosses between the 
Oncocyclus type (Suziana, Iberia, etc.) and the hardy Pogoniris, or 
Bearded Iris. The resultant hybrids carry the very interesting char- 
acteristics of the Oncocyclus Iris, but are quite hardy in our Northern 
and Eastern gardens without protection. This section contains many 
very handsome varieties, heavily veined and netted flowers, and others 
with unusual and curious markings. They are particularly attractive 
in a rock garden and thrive best in a rather dry, hot, sunny location,

in well drained soil that has had plenty of limestone and sharp sand 
or coal ashes incorporated in it. No Iris garden is complete without a 
few specimens of Pogocyclus Iris, as they are entirely different in 
form and marking from all other Iris, and even among themselves 
there is a vast difference between the varieties in this respect. I 
have many varieties besides those listed here, but am listing only those 
that have proven quite hardy outside without any special care. These 
begin to bloom in Bayside about the middle of May with the exception 
of the new variety, Mons Streichen, which commences flowering dur- 
ing the last week of April.
