EVERY GARDEN SHOULD HAVE 
SOME IRIS PLANTINGS 
No other flower gives such large returns for so little 
investment in time and money. 
Iris are easy to grow, hardy and practically. tree 
from disease and most insect pests. 
The range in color is more extensive than in any 
other flower and with the various blends, by-colors, 
plicates and variegatas, the variety to choose from is 
almost unlimited. 
Iris not only give wonderful color value and added 
beauty to your garden, but are excellent as cut flowers 
for the house. A stalk, if cut when the top flower is 
opening, will last a week or longer.
