28 OLD FAVORITES (Tall Bearded) 
Here are the “OLD FAVORITES” that have been ever so popular in years past, and to be found in gardens everywhere. Many are 
still fine varieties, entirely suitable for the bulk of the order for beginners just starting with modern Iris, and who can as yet afford only 
a few of the exciting new ones their neighbors do not have. Some of the “OLD FAVORITES” are being listed for the last time, so if there 
are any you particularly want, we suggest you stock up now. You can order these varieties either individually, or by any of the eight 
collections shown below the variety names. Shipped in summer and fall. 
We are a little short of these, so cannot sell them quite as 
reasonably as those at the right. There are some nice ones here.

WE MAKE IT EASY TO ORDER BY MAIL 
When to Order. While Iris are normally shipped either in 
summer or fall, depending on the kind, all types are usually ordered 
in the spring, just as soon as our 12,000 catalogs reach our cus- 
tomers. This custom has arisen very naturally, because the desira- 
ble new items are always in short supply, and everyone is eager to 
get his order in before the stock is all allotted. A great many orders 
are sent by AIR MAIL; by June thousands are on file, and many 
items are becoming SOLD OUT. To delay even a day is to court 
disappointment. 
Kinds Shipped in the Summer and Fall. Orders for 
all types of Bearded Iris (pages 6 to 15, and 22) and Onco-Bearded 
Hybrids (page 17) are normally shipped between early July and 
late October, in rotation as received. If your order includes any of 
the other types of Iris, they will be shipped separately, as explained 
below. 
Kinds Shipped Only in the Fall. As shown on page 
18, all other types of Iris are shipped only at planting time in the 
fall. Please do not expect them with your summer shipment. 
Remittance Must Accompany Order. Your order 
and remittance will be acknowledged when received. Personal 
checks, postal or express money orders, or bank drafts may be used. 
- Currency, or even stamps may be used for small orders. A 25% 
deposit will reserve any stock for you for later delivery. Please re- 
mit the balance before shipping time. We do not ship C.O.D. If 
you want the fastest possible delivery, add 25c for speedy SPECIAL 
DELIVERY service; this is free on orders of $25 or more. 
We Pay Parcel Post and make no charge for packing on 
orders of $3.00 or more. On smaller orders, please add 25c to help 
defray packing and postage costs. 
Size of Rhizomes. This varies from variety to variety, so 
please do not expect all to be the same size. 
Cultural Directions are sent with all orders. 
Foreign Orders. We ship many orders to foreign countries. Due to 
the extra shipping expense involved, we ask that foreign orders be at least 
$10.00, and that, except for Canada, 20% be added to help cover our addi- 
tional costs. We will then prepay the postage to Canada, England, Union of 
South Africa, New Zealand and Australia. To import Iris into Canada, you 
have only to advise your Dept. of Agriculture at Ottawa, stating what you 
wish to import, its cost, and the name of the Garden from which it is to 
be ordered. The necessary import permit will then be sent you. 
Catalog Yearly for All who Order. |; you would like to receive 
our new catalog regularly each spring, without request, we hope you will 
send us at least one order each year, so we will be aware of your interest. 
Thank you. Persons not on our mailing list may obtain a catalog by sending 
10c to help defray postage and handling costs. 
ATTENTION GARDEN CLUBS! 
A Commission for ONE MEMBER of Each Club 
Energetic Iris and Garden Club members who have more enthusiasm for 
Iris than ready cash, will be interested in our plan whereby we appoint one 
member of each club to assemble for us the orders to be placed by club 
members. For this assistance we pay liberal commissions in fine Iris varieties. 
Thus, the person sending in the orders can build up his or her own collection 
without cost. Write today for the details before someone else in your club 
gets the appointment. We supply our catalogs free for you to use in acquaint- 
ie et members with our offerings—also our Hybridizing Leaflets where 
esired. 

Even with Collections—THREE Surprise Gifts with every order of $5.00 or more. 23
