IRIS FRIENDS 
Roy Rogers’ Iris Gardens may be discontinued in the near 
future. Mrs. Rogers passed away last winter. There seems 
little point in continuing the business. It will probably be 
offered for sale after this season. It consists of the above 
house and two acres of land, adjoining the city of Boulder. 
This house was appraised by the State of Colorado at 
$20,000. The land should be worth eight or ten thousand 
dollars. The place is highly landscaped. Over 125 evergreens 
have been planted about the place in the past ten years. 
There will probably be growing on the place several thous- 
and dollars worth of choice iris. If you are interested in a 
small iris business, this place is ideal. 
WHAT IRIS WILL TAKE THE DYKES 
We guessed right twice. Two years ago we said it would 
be Truly Yours. Last year we told you we were sure it would 
be Mary Randall. Not so sure this year. Will place them in 
this order; Sable Night, Palomino, Violet Harmony.
