This strikingly beautiful group of iris from the deep South have proved to be surprisingly hardy throughout the United 
States and Southern Canada. Since the discovery of many new native plants and the great success of the hybridizers their 
popularity is increasing rapidly. There is a wide range in color, form and size. Colors include rich purple, blue, pink, cop- 
per, white, bright yellow, and vivid red. They begin to bloom with the late tall bearded varieties and continue over a long 
period of time. Some varieties will have three and four flowers at one time, artistically spaced along the graceful arching 
stems. Wonderful cut flowers and ideal for flower arrangements.
