“Our Iris arrived July 80 and we set 
them right out. We especially want to 
thank you for sending along those extras 
—they must be very choice as I could not 
find them in any other iris book. I’m quite 
sure they will feel right at home in my 
yard. We are looking forward to lots of 
new iris blooms and your 1950 catalogue.”
