Che Jris Grown From Bulbs 
DUTCH IRIS 
The popularity of the bulbous iris (Dutch, Spanish and English) increases 
each year as more people learn of the great beauty and ease of culture of these 
bulbs. Because of their beautiful harmon.ous colors and long lasting qualities 
they are unexcelled among the bulb flowers for either garden or cut flowers. By

and ends with the English Iris in June.
