Iris in some form are native to practically all parts of the world. They 
vary greatly in size, height and coloring in the various countries. As a 
class they are of extremely easy culture and not particular as to soil. No 
flowering plant gives so much in beauty for so little cost and attention. 
The following list of Tall Bearded Iris offers the newer kinds which, 
because scarce as yet, are relatively more expensive than the old varieties. 
Because our list is so extensive we can give only brief descriptions. 
Get some of these newer kinds for your garden. You will revel in 
their beauty and your friends will enjoy kinds they have never seen.
