ENGLISH IRIS 
(Bulbous) 
If you have never grown this beautiful 
Iris, try a few bulbs; you will be delighted. 
They thrive in any ordinary garden soil, mul- 
tiply very rapidly and are unexcelled for cut 
flowers. This species reached The Nether- 
lands through England, which accounts for 
its name. Flowers in late June and early July. 
Needs some protection in severe climates. 
Not for forcing. 
Not recommended for Southern or dry, 
hot areas. 
Plant 6 inches deep. Complete cultural 
directions come with bulbs.

ENGLISH IRIS SEEDLINGS 
Grown from seed of our own selection to 
flowering size bulbs, which requires four 
years; all will bloom the first year, many 
have already flowered in the field. Colors 
range from white through light blues, laven- 
ders, to dark purples and blues. 
They are far superior to ‘’“Mixed’’ English 
Iris, many unusual flowers are among them. 
Recommended for the commercial cut flower 
grower.

CROCUS (Spring Flowering) 
These are among the loveliest of all spring- 
flowering plants. They need rather a sunny place 
in the garden to make the flowers open up fully 
and look their best. 
This is the Giant Flowering Strain, and only the 
finest variety in each color is listed. 
All crocus may be planted 3 or 4 inches 
deep.
