Oriental or Il. Kaempferi 
Like very large orchids these iris are becoming 
tremendously popular. They are a breath taking 
sight in late June and early July when so many 
perennials are going out of bloom, three or four 
blooms being produced on the 31% ft. stalks. 
They are greatly improved by abundant water- 
ing during June and July and like a slightly acid 
soil. 
Blue Waves. Large semi-double wisteria-blue 
with striking gold centers. One of the most 
distinctive. 
Gold Bound. Very large double pure white with 
gold banded center. 
Koko-No-Iro. Enormous double flowers of rich 
violet-purple with the center, smaller petals 
Upped with violet. 
Kumchii Gumii. The rich midnight blue of the 
petals is in striking contrast to the high yellow 
tufted crown; truly exotic. 
Repsime. A very large double of light blue with 
wide white margins. 
PRICE. Any of the Oriental Iris 55c each; 3 for 
$1.50; Doz. $5.00. 
Dwarf Iris 
We like these dwarf itis because they can be 
tucked into odd spots which they brighten in 
very early spring. Need practically no care. 
Atroviolacea. Rich wine red; very dwarf; free 
blooming. 
Excelsa. Pale lemon-yellow that provides con- 
trast with the darker colors. 
Sambo. Dark violet-blue; dwarf and early. 
PRICE. Any of the Dwarf Iris 50c each, 3 for 
$1.30; Doz. $4.50.

Oriental Iris need lots of water 
during the blooming season. 

Note: Peonies should be transplanted only in the late summer. All orders received in the spring 
will be reserved for fall shipment. 
No garden is complete without a few clumps of peonies and no perennial is so easily grown. Our 
plants are all 3 to 5 eye divisions. All are rated very high by the American Peony Society.

are a “must” for new and old perennial borders. 
They grow to 3 ft. in height, bloom from late 
June to September, do well in dry sunny spots or 
in partial shade and like moist soil growing, 
even, in poorly drained spots.
