FOREWORD 

GREETINGS and thank you for your fine orders of 
last season. With our increased plantings (now 
over 11% acres), we will do our best to fill your 
orders promptly with the finest and hardiest stock 
available. This past year we have been fortunate 
in being able to add many novelties from England, 
France, and Canada, in addition to securing the 
best of the new at home. 
We have given in 
condensed form, as 
ample description as 
space permits for the 
number of varieties we 
list. Stock on many 
varieties we list this 
year for the first time 
is very limited. If you 
are interested in vari- 
eties not listed, write, 
in all probability we 
have the variety or 
can secure it for you. 
Next year we hope to 
have a larger and finer 
catalog for your use. 

Mr. and Mrs. G. W. Geiser 
We are firm believers in the performance of 
many of the older not-so-often-listed varieties of 
iris . . . that is why we are ardent collectors of 
them and it is our endeavor to preserve many of 
the sorts which are fast passing out of general 
commerce. We constantly have a “want list” of 
over 200 of these scarce and almost forgotten iris. 
If you have something unusual to offer and it is 
not listed in this catalog ... write, or better still 
ask for our “Want List.” 
We have customers in every state; our plants 
do well anywhere. ‘ince we are located in the 
“wheat belt” of an extremely long growing season 
we have shipped plants from earliest spring until 
the ground freezes. Every plant we sell is grown 
naturally and hand dug. A trial order will con- 
vince you of their quality and hardiness. 
As a slight change in our policy from previous 
years, this season we are substituting on varieties 
sold out, with a variety equally as good or higher 
priced unless you advise us not to substitute. If 
advised not to substitute, refunds promptly made. 
It is to your advantage to name one or more sub- 
stitutes when placing your order. For complete 
terms of sale, see inside back cover. 
Sincerely, 
ALICE M. GEISER GEORGE W. GEISER
