Other Iria Types 
DUTCH IRIS 
WEDGEWOOD—The earliest of the Dutch iris, of azure blue 
with a spot of gold on the lip under the crest. Blooms with 
the daffodils, and is the iris that is forced at such high prices 
by florists in the early spring. per doz. $1.00 
YELLOW QUEEN—A solid yellow in color, with thin, wiry stems 
and smaller foliage than Wedgewood above. It blooms almost 
a month later than the earliest Wedgewoods. 10c 
GOLDEN LION—An early flowering, very long stemmed, pure 
yellow, with a slightly larger flower than Yellow Queen. 20c 
SPURIA 
OCH RALEUCA—The best known, and commonly seen repre- 
sentative of the Spuria classification, which has not been much 
hybridized, except by Mr. Eric Nies in California and Wash- 
ington in the East. This has a form that might be confused 
with the Dutch iris, but is really quite different, and it has as 
well three or four blooms to the stem, coming out in quick suc- 
cession to cluster tightly close to the stem. A fine background 
planting, and excellent cut flower, blooming the end of April 
and early May. The stem is about 40 to 48”. 256 
MISCELLANEOUS BULBS 
AGAPANTHUS—or Blue Lily of the Nile... Does very well 
in Southern California, though it is not often seen, except in 
some of the older gardens. A three to four foot stem carries 
lily-shaped trumpets about four to five inches long, six or 
eight in a cluster. A semi-tropical strap-like rosette of leaves 
is evergreen at the base. Blooms the end of May and through 
June. 50c 
HYMENOCALLIS CALATHINA—or Peruvian Daffodil... This 
very fragrant, all white flower is well suited to full sun, and 
is similar in shape and size to the daffodil. Its foliage is 
similar also, but evergreen. Soc
