FALL BLOOMING IRISES 
We are proud that we have had a part in 
introducing and popularizing fall bloom- 
ing Irises. Both their number and their 
quality have increased steadily through 
the years. The fall bloomers are at their 
best in the South where seasons are long 
enough to permit full development of 
the second crop of bloom, but many va- 
rieties re-bloom in central and north- 
ern sections: One of our southern cus- 
tomers has reported at least one bloom 
open every day in the year from a col- 
lection of our fall bloomers. Gardeners 
should remember that rapid growth is 
necessary in order to produce the sec- 
ond crop of bloom. This means more 
frequent transplanting, favorable condi- 
tions for growth and adequate moisture 
in the late summer. 
Spring bloom of most of the fall bloom- 
ers is in the intermediate class as to 
season, height and size, but some of the 
newer ones are large and tall enough to 
be classed as tall bearded. A few of the 
early ones are dwarf in habit. The fall 
bloomers are perfectly hardy and are 
grown in many northern gardens for 
their spring bloom alone. Normally our 
fall bloom begins in September and con- 
tinues until cold weather. 
AUTUMN ELF (Brown)—Cream and 
lavender bicolor, this variety has re- 
-bloomed in central and northern sec- 
tions 
AUTUMN FLAME (Sass)—A sensational 
new fall bloomer of large size and heavy 
substance, deep toned red bicolor__$9.50 
AUTUMN HAZE (Sass)—An attractive 
soft lavender of fine form and large 
size, persistent and early in re-blooming, 
a real advance over Autumn King $9.25 
AUTUMN QUEEN (Sass)—Pure white 
dwarf of exceptional quality, a most per- 
sistent re-bloomer giving some bloom 
every month from summer to fall $0.25
