RISES 
Iris in some form are native to practically all parts of the world. 
They vary greatly in size, height and coloring in the various 
countries. As a class they are of extremely easy culture and not 
particular as to soil. No flowering plant gives so much in beauty 
for so little cost and attention. 
The following list of Tall Bearded Iris offers the newer kinds 
which, because scarce as yet, are relatively more expensive than 
the older varieties. Because our list is so extensive we can give 
only brief descriptions. 
Get some of these newer kinds for your garden. You will revel 
in their beauty and your friends will enjoy kinds they have never 
seen.
