lection of Iris I purchased of you. My garden is larger than I can 
tend alone so I hired a gardener one day a week to keep it in good!

Planting Suggestions 
Elaborate planting instructions often prove a nuisance. 
There is only one general rule to follow: Place the plant in th 
ground about as it originally grew. Iris with the rhizome—thiek| 
part of root—just covered with soil, and soil firmed. Iris will grow) 
transplanted any time from early spring until late fall. Don’t wait,| 
get them planted, Some varieties have large, fleshy rhizomes; some} 
quite small. 
For Peonies—It doesn’t matter much how the roots are placed if| 
the eyes or buds of the plant, where they sprout from the thick! 
TOO, are not placed more than two inches deep from the level]| 
surface. | 
Oriental Poppies should have an inch of soil above where the 
buds or sprouts start from the roots. They may not show much signs. 
of growth until spring. 
Other perennials are easily planted, following the old-time 
deners’ rule—leaves and stems in the air, roots in the ground. 
If fertilizer is needed, sprinkle bone meal or Vigoro on the top 
goth pnd hoy it out of sight. The plant food eventually gets dec 
roots.
