SPURIA IRIS 
The Spurias are growing in popularity. An- 
other beardless variety of the Iris family which 
is hardy and easy to grow. They range from three 
to five feet in height and will grow in most any 
location of the garden, but best results will be 
obtained if they are given plenty of water and 
some shade. 
Their blooming season starts near the last 
of the Bearded Iris season, thus prolonging Iris 
display in the garden. Too, they are one of the 
finest for cut flowers.
