ff, 
is 
well the first Season. 
the Mail-Order field — with a collection of fine Iris — and had 
made tests of all promising varieties. When we moved to Oregon 
two years ago we brought with us only the most attractive of the 
varieties we were testing and growing. We soon found that 
Gladiolus would take our entire time — but in the meanwhile these 
Iris kept growing — and now it is necessary to reduce the quantity. 
It would be difficult to find a choicer list of varieties — as our test- 
ing included all of the newer Iris released up to 1946. We have 
divided these into 4 price sections — Section A @ 25c each — Sec- 
tion B @ 30c — Section C @ 35c and Section D in which each variety 
is priced according to its rarity and value. All of our Iris was trans- 
planted 2 years ago — rhizomes will be slightly smaller than from 
1 year plants — but are healthy and vigorous and should bloom
