SPANISH IRIS 
The Spanish Iris is of the same character as the Dutch section, they make a somewhat 
smaller growth and are about a fortnight later in bloom and can therefore be grown in 
succession to the Dutch Iris. They are hardy except for a covering in winter against 
severe frosts. Plant in a good soil 5 inches deep and 4 inches apart.
