SIBERIAN AND SPURIA IRIS are unsurpassed for landscaping 
purposes. They may be left undisturbed for years as their beauty 
and effectiveness are in large established clumps. Under ideal con- 
ditions some spurias attain six feet. 
CULTURE: SIBERIAN and SPURIA IRIS will grow and bloom 
in almost any soil that suits other perennial flowers. However, 
they are moisture lovers and will grow twice as high and produce 
twice as many flowers if kept constantly moist during their grow- 
ing season. As they are most effective in large clumps they should 
be. planted where they need not be disturbed. All are very hardy 
and should give no trouble anywhere.
