English Onis 
This magnificent mixture of bulbous English 
Iris has been developed at our own nurseries, 
and contains all the choicest varieties which can 
possibly be had in these fine Iris. The English 
Iris are a bulbous Iris which bloom in our lati- 
tude about the early part of July, and come after 
all other bulbous Iris. They should be planted as 
soon after receiving them as possible for best 
results. They prefer the more moist and heavier 
soils, and should have good drainage. The 
blooms of the English Iris are considered to be 

the finest of any in the Iris class, and each in- 
dividual bloom is strikingly beautiful, and as cut 
flowers they are unsurpassed. We are offering 
them in a fine mixture of colors. $1.75 per doz.; 
$12.00 per 100.
