vigorous. Early midseason. 40 inches. 
Each 30c, Doz. $3.00 
Shah Jehan 
A multi-colored Iris with 7 distinct colors, but a flower of the greatest 
refinement notwithstanding its lavish colors. It is considered by many 
as one of the greatest achievements of Iris development. Standards, soft 
creamy buff, flushed soft lavender and suffused gray, fading to almost 
pure white as the flower ages. Falls, deep, rich ruby-red, with a VYg-inch 
white border. This is but an inadequate description of this very fine Iris. 
An extra fine large stock of this new variety enables us to offer it at a 
very low price for such a fine Iris. 
Each 35c, Doz. $3.50 
Shining Waters 
Four to five feet. Early. Very sweet fragrance. On close inspection 
the surface seems to be studded with tiny jewels, giving an unusual 
sparkle. A uniform, clear sky-blue, of a most delightful shade. 
Siegfried Each $1.00, Doz. $10.00 
An Iris they are all talking about, and one which every grower will want

a stippling and dotting of purple. A slightly buffy overtone blends the 
colors together.

honors, as the best of the year. An exceptionally smooth, refined flower

ada. It is naturally a good doer in even the severest climates. Pure 
white in color, on 10-inch stems, its extreme floriferousness results in 
a solid mass of bloom resembling a drift of new snow. As fine a border 
planting as can be imagined. One of the very earliest and best. Lovely 
with late Tulips. 
Sunlight Each 25c, Doz. $2.50 
One of our largest and finest soft yellows. Unsurpassed as an exhibition 
flower, and lovely with pale blues. 
Venus de Milo Each 25c, Doz. $2.50

good white. A perfect flower in every way.

arly. 
Winneshiek Each 30c, Doz. $3.00 
We like this best of all the new black Irises, the actual color being the 
deepest midnight-blue-violet. It is certainly one of the best of this 
type, if not the best. The flower is large, of lustrous silky texture, of 
perfect form and freely produced. You will not be disappointed with 
Winneshiek.

Cady Glowexing Huniature Iris IRIS PUMILA 
These hardy, dwarf Iris are one of the most inexpensive, long-lived edging plants in cultivation. 
They multiply rapidly, bloom profusely, require no care but can be counted upon to take care of 
themselves. They have in miniature form all the characteristics of the tall Bearded Iris. They begin 
to flower in April and continue well into May. They are hardy everywhere and, as said before, 
excellent for edging beds and borders or walks. The autumn-flowering varieties may be used for 
the same purpose as described above.

throughout the year.
