ONOCYCLUS and REGELIA HYBRIDS 
Exotic and fascinating and of unusual value to hy- 
bridizers are these orchid-like iris from the general area 
of Palestine to the western Himalaya. These hybrids 
are the results of crossing onocyclus species and ono- 
cyclus and regelia species and vary in color from green- 
ish white, buff, lilac, maroon and purple to almost black. 
Some are heavily veined and dotted. They require 
good drainage and like some lime in the soil. In regions 
with summer rainfall lift the rhizomes after the leaves 
have died down and store in dry peat moss in a dry 
place. Replant in late fall. In dry regions they may be 
left undisturbed.

JAPANESE (Kaempferi) IRIS 
The requirements of the Kaempferi differ greatly 
from most of the other iris but when given the proper 
care they are considered the most spectacular of all. 
They require a heavily enriched soil on the acid side 
with lots of water before and during their blooming 
period. They are particularly adapted for planting 
around pools. Full cultural directions will accompany
