: Best Iris Not High Priced 
Perhaps you noticed that the list of the 
first twenty iris shows them to be com- 
paratively inexpensive. This is because 
they are not the new untested $15.00 and 
$25.00 varieties. Neither are they some 
of the highly publicized frilled and be- 
\decked debutantes that may or may not 
make the grade. Instead, they are the 
.good, solid varieties that have proven 
their worth, and beauty, beyond a doubt. 
Iris Have Changed 
By the above paragraph, we do not 
mean to imply that iris have not changed 
recently. They have, tremendously. If 
you base your own judgment of iris upon 
the small-flowered, poorly colored varie- 
ties of ten years ago, you should try some 
of the iris listed above. You will be pleas-- 
antly surprised at their great beauty of 
form and color, and size. And yet they 
are very easy to grow. In fact, they are 
one of the easiest of all flowers to grow. |
