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 poois. Full cultural direc- 
tions will accompany each order.

ONOCYCLUS and REGELIA HYBRIDS 
Exotic and fascinating and of unusual value to hybridizers are 
these orchid-like iris from the general area of Palestine to the western 
Himalayas. These hybrids are the results of crossing onocyclus species 
and onocyclus and regelia species and vary in color from greenish 
white, buff, lilac, maroon 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 ihey may be left 
undisturbed.
