SPURIA IRIS 
These beardless iris are hardy and easy to grow. The flowers are 
carried on 3- to 5-foot stems and resemble the Dutch or Spanish Iris. 
They are unexcelled as a cut flower and are very effective in the 
garden. The plants may be left in one location for several seasons 
without the need for transplanting. They will grow in most any loca- 
tion but prefer plenty of water. Their blooming season begins near 
the end of the bearded iris. Very popular and in great demand.
