These Double Duty Irises not only blossom in the spring, along with other 
early flowering varieties (early May in the latitude of Long Island and a month 
earlier in the south) BUT THEY FLOWER AGAIN PROFUSELY IN THE AUTUMN, 
BEGINNING IN SEPTEMBER AND CONTINUING UNTIL KILLED BY HEAVY 
FROST. SOME OF THEM ALSO FLOWER INTERMITTENTLY THROUGHOUT 
THE SUMMER, THUS GIVING SEVERAL SEASONS OF BLOOM. They are all 
hardy and can be planted any time and require little care. Planting and cultural 
directions accompany all shipments.
