Louisiana Iris 
These beautiful perennials, originating in’ the 
Louisiana swamps are fascinating, and grow satis- 
factorily in most localities. Through experience I 
have found that they thrive in semi-shade, in en- 
riched porous soil. The planting should be shal- 
low; merely cover the rhizomes then sift over 
them a mulch of peat moss or compost. They are 
hungry and thirsty plants, so water them well, espe- 
cially through growing and pre-blooming season, 
and feed them, lots of well seasoned steer manure.
