JAPANESE IRIS 
Japanese irises are very valuable because they bloom later 
than almost any other sort. The beautifully colored flowers are 
larger than those of other irises, and are well adapted for use as 
cut flowers. They grow well in sun, but will do well in half shade 
also. They like acid, and will thrive in a moist situation, but will 
grow well and bloom under ordinary garden conditions if given 
plenty of moisture before the blooming season. The number in pa- 
renthesis after the name indicates the number of petals.
