MARICA GRACILIS 
Marica 
South American Irid commonly called 
the Walking Iris. They have shiny, bright 
evergreen foliage in fans resembling Iris 
‘japonica from the center of which rises 
the flower scape looking just like another 
leaf. Near the tip of this scape the flowers 
develop and bloom, after which young 
plants are produced from the same point. 
As these young plants become large the 
scape is caused to bend down, touching the 
ground, when the plants take root and the 
first step is taken in the process of walking. 
In pot culture they may be trained to 
hang, making cascades four to six feet 
high. In warm sections they may be 
planted in the open. They like light soil 
with leafmold. Delivery throughout the 
year. 
GRACILIS. The flowers are extremely 
beauful, fragrant, three inches across, 
and last one day, but several flowers are

the center of the flower is brown. Delivery 
throughout the year. 75c each.
