HARDY 
IRIS 
Hardy Iris are most effective in perennial borders and among shrubbery, and one 
of the easiest plants to grow. Choose a sunny, well-drained location, with good garden soil. 
If soil is poor, fertilize with good commercial fertilizer or bone meal, in fall and once 
or twice in spring. Set plants 12 to 18 inches apart, and just cover the rhizomes. Water 
thoroughly after planting, and keep moderately moist after that. Iris may be planted 
any time from June to winter. 
The Iris offered below are outstanding in beauty and coloring, selected from the finest 
of American and French Iris gardens. 
Prices include postage through the fourth zone (within 600 miles of Los Angeles) . 
Please add sales tax to all California orders.
