IRIS AVALON BLEND 
\ Here there is at least a little of every Iris that we have 
in seed form, of course not in equal amounts, for some kinds 
are too scarce and rare for that. Nevertheless we doubt that 
any other Iris blend, anywhere, any time, has equaled this in 
quality. 46 oz. 25e; % oz. 35¢c; % oz. 60c. 
GIANT HYBRID IRISES 
Here are the large-flowered Hybrid or Giant Bearded Irises 
that, all through the late spring, paint our borders and gar- 
dens in such glorious color. Sometimes they are called ‘“Ger- 
man Irises’’. Plants of them can be moved at almost any time 
of the year that the soil is not frozen. 
SEEDS OF GIANT BEARDED IRISES—We offer seeds saved 
from a wonderful collection of named sorts, many of the seeds 
from hand-pollenated crosses. Seedlings should show a re- 
markable range of variable color richness. Many of the seed- 
lings may be worth naming and introducing as new kinds. 
Sow seeds outside in latest autumn, or at first possible mo- 
ment in spring. Culture ‘kt.’ Pkt. 20c; % oz. 45c. ‘

3 IRID MARVELS 
Blended seeds of Iridaceae. This description is written before 
we are sure what will be available, but included are likely to 
be Libertia, Homeria, Dierama, Hesperanthera, Morea, Tig- 
ridia, Geissorhiza, Aristea, Ixia, Cypella, Babiana, Streptan- 
thus, Schizostylis, Tritonia, Crocus, Sparaxis, Freesia, etc. 
Best handled in pots. Pkt. 20c. 7 
SALMAGUNDI doesn’t always mean pickles. One dictionary 
meaning is “a medley,’’ and our particular SALMAGUNDI, 
offered here, is surely that. It is a mixture of seeds of pretty 
nearly everything we offer, and of a few we don’t as yet 
eatalog (left-overs from our own trial sowings). Of some 
kinds there will be just a trace, of others much, for this is 
where old seeds go. Seeds are mostly one-year old, a few older. 
They won’t all grow, but a lot of them will, and at low price 
at which this is sold, you can be pretty sure of getting ex- 
cellent value in plants from it. 1% oz. 35c; 1 oz. 60c; 14 Ib.
