DWARF BEARDED IRIS 
For the rock garden and along the walks, 
nothing is so charming as these prolific, 
suitable hardy sorts which bloom from 
March until the middle of April (and some 
even later). Due to the increased interest in 
these Tom Thumb iris and vecause many of » 
the newer ones challenge the colorful hues 
of their taller brethern, we offer the ample 
color selection below.

or more.
