. Boddington's quality bulbs, seeds and plants / Arthur T. Nursery Catalogue. BODDINGTON'S ^A^CltlVV BULBS" 91 JAPANESE IRIS (/ns Kaempferi) The Japanese Iris is the most showy and strikingly beautiful of all the large family of Iris; and very few flowers, the orchid not being excepted, surpass this unique flower in size and gorgeousness and variety of color, which ranges from snow-white to the deepest purple, striped, variegated and multicolored in the greatest profusion of coloring. The collections which w^e offer below are American grown, thor- oughly acclimated and hardy and true to color and name, which is rarely evident in the imported Japanese stock. The plants we offer are furnished with four to five shoots, and all will flower the first season after planting, guaranteeing an immediate and showy effect. Delivery can be made now or any time desired. Early spring planting is recommended, however, as it gives the plants an opportunity to get established before the warm weather sets in. The Japan Iris will succeed anywhere in a good rich soil, though a moist position is preferable. DOUBLE JAPANESE IRIS Blue Jay. Sky-blue, with deep blue edge and white veins. £claire.
