OZARK’ TRIS GARDENS 
Ozark, Arkansas 
Greetings Iris Friends: 
Here we aré into 1053 ang @o far this year has been lovely as far 
as the weather goes, At the moment it looks as if we will have an 
early Iris bloom this vear, If you @rée this way from the last 
week of April to the first week in May you may see a good deal 
of bloom. On the other hand the drouth may have done away with 
the bloom this year. We had some tough luck last year when we 
moved the iris from Kirksville, Missouri, It was in June that we 
moved them and it was also in June that the drouth set in here, 
Last fall it looked as if we would lose two-thirds of them and 
now it looks as if there are two-thirds growing out there as if 
they had been fed vitamins. Some varieties we lost campletely 
and others stood the drouth like true veterans. We still have 
thousands of rhizomes left te sell. 
We truly appreciate the orders that you sent us last year and we 
tried our best to please each and every customer. We received 
many nice letters from some of you ans these we truly appreciat- 
ed. We feel that some of vow lost iris, just as we dia, and we 
want each one of you who intt plants funm us to write us an&j teil 
us what you lost and ws wijl maxe them gnod if we still have 
plants of that variety this year. Of course we will only make 
those good that we did not zefund money on, No gratis iris will 
be made good. We feel thas you will be fair and honest with us 
for we are trying to be fair and honest with you in doing this, 
although it msy not have been our fault altogether that the 
plants did not survive. 
We have cut the prices in half on some varieties that we have a 
great many of, and we have cut some on plants that we do not have 
an abundance of, The rest of our prices will compare with those 
of other places we think. lLook through the list, compare prices, 
and we feel sure that we will get a share of your order. Remember 
that our garden is a hobby garden and not a commercial garden.
