DUTCH IRIS 
These bulbous iris are among the prettiest of all 
spring flowers for cutting or garden decoration. Being 
orchid-like in their beauty of form and color, they are 
choice subjects for table arrangements and corsages. 
Millions are forced yearly for the early cut flower trade, 
and because of heavy demands, present stocks will not 
be sufficient to supply late customers. Order your bulbs 
early and thus be assured of prompt delivery at the proper 
planting time. Plant 5 inches deep and 6 to 8 inches 
apart in rich, light soil, having good winter drainage. 
In colder climates provide a mulch. They flower from 
early May into June, in our locality. 
All these iris priced at 3 for 25c (one variety) ; doz. 75c; 
100 for $5.25. 
BRONZE QUEEN. A lovely bronze iris; 
falls. 
GOLDEN EMPEROR. A deep yellow flower of nice form, 
good size, good growing habits. 
H. C. VAN VLIET. Deep violet blue standards, pearl blue 
falls with yellow blotch. Tall and vigorous, splendid cut 
flower. 
WEDGWOOD (Tingitana) 24”. A very early, beautiful 
and tender iris which can be grown out of doors only 
in the South and along the western edge of the Pacific 
Coast. Standards are of pale wedgwood-blue with 
rather deeper colored falls. 
WHITE SUPERIOR. Splendid pure white. The typical 
yellow blotch is replaced in this variety by a thin yel- 
low line, giving the flower,a whiter appearance. A 
really outstanding flower.

THE FRAGRANT 
Hyacinths are a precious source of color and tragrance, 
their early vivid hues making lovely companions for the 
daffodils. 
This year we have such a nice collection that we are 
segregating them for you as to color, making it easier for 
you to select colors you want. The bulbs are large, plump, 
and ready to give a splendid account of themselves. We 
have a good stock of them, but have no means of knowing 
how long they will last. If you send your order in early, 
you won’t be disappointed. 
Hyacinths—AII varieties priced at 3 bulbs of one variety 
for 55c; 6 (one variety) for $1.00; 12 (one variety) for 
$2.00. 
BLUE HYACINTHS 
BISMARCK. Sky blue, broad spike. Extra fine for early 
forcing. Darker in color than Dr. Streseman, lighter 
than Ostara. 
BLUE GIANT. Midseason blooming. Giant bells on a 
giant spike; of a lovely medium light blue color. 
DR. LIEBER. Rather late blooming. Long, slender spikes 
of lavender blue bells. 
DR. STRESEMAN. Midseason. Large, rather loose spike 
of medium blue bells; little darker than Lindberg and 
little later. 
KING OF THE BLUES. Deep violet blue; one of the dark- 
est and best. Splendid large trusses. 
MYOSOTIS. A catching tone of light forget-me-not blue; 
large spike and bells. 
OSTARA. Early. Pure dark blue outside, lightly tinted 
violet inside. 
LILAC AND PURPLE HYACINTHS 
LORD BALFOUR. Lilac, tinged rosy-violet. Could be 
called pinkish-heliotrope. A very unusual color in 
hyacinths and very popular. Quite early blooming. 
PURPLE KING. Late blooming. We would call this more 
of a deep lilac or light violet than purple. A long spike 
of rather small bells, very compact; and one of the 
latest to bloom in our garden. Color entirely different 
than Lord Balfour.
