INTRODUCTORY

and shall continue to test the promising

varieties as offered so that [ will be better
qualified to judge the merits of my seedlings.

My glory strain mostly contain some shade
of red as brown, carmine, purple and maroon-red.
The plants are all very robust growers, and free
flowering, and the flower stalks are larger than
niost other varieties. They will average from
20 to 30 inches in height, and all have large
flowers.

I HAVE TESTED over 600 varieties cf Iris,

Three-quarter acres of named seedlings
in thejdistance

The falls generally stand out horizontally.

IT am raising thousands of seedlings each
year, and_I believe I have the largest amount of
seedlings of any grower in the United States.

MIXED SEEDLINGS

I have a good collection of the standard varieties
of Beardless, Dwarf and Tall Bearded, and Siberian,
and they are from $1.50 per dozen up.

I have thousands of seedlings of the tall bearded in a
mixture that I am offering at 6.00 per 100, and will
give 50 more varieties in each order for 100. plants.
I also have the dwarf bearded at the same price.
These do not vary so much, but allare good. Six
at dozen and 50 at 100 rates. At eachand dozen rates
my seedling Iris will be sent prepaid, They can be
planted from the first of July until late in fall or in
the spring,

A dry, sunny location suits them best. Avoid

- fresh manure when planting, in fact, all manure
where dwarf and tall bearded Iris are planted.

PEONIES

They can be planted from early September until
late fall or in the spring. In planting be sure to have
the crown two inches below the surface when planted,
They appreciate good care and nourishnment, but re-
sent an over-abundance of fresh manure too near the
roots. I have many varieties, and some of the newer
high priced ones, but Iam only offering a few. If you
wish other varieties, write me.

THE HARDY PHLOXES

They require a rich soil to produce the best effect,
as they are gross feeders. They like plenty of moisture
and in dry seasons should be supplied with plenty of
water. Unlike most flowers they will thrive in partial
shade.

Have the crown of the plant one inch below the
the surface when planted.

Some seasons every plant will ‘live if planted in the
fall, and others they winter-kill, and do not advise
fall Platting for northern planters.

ous varieties, but will give only a short list of varieties

ure than the Delphinum, and none that have a longer
period of bloom. They are every shade of blue imagin-
able, and unless it is a plant that has been divided
there will be no two exactly alike,

I have been improving them by selection fora num-
ber of years, and believe | have one of the finest collec-
tions in the United States. I have many magnificent
double ones too. ‘

and place them in a dry, cool cellar where they will not
fereze.

growth the following spring on the first approach
of warm weather.

It is important that Peonies, Phlox and
Platycodon should be planted at the right depth,
and instructions should be followed.

During the winter T have most of my new
Iris, and other plants, heeled in sand in my
storage cellar, and can ship to warmer sections of
the U.S. as early in the spring as desired.

If an order is to go by parcel post‘ and more
is added than to cover postage, the unused bal-
ance will be returned or ext-a stock added as
desired.

No plant will endure mere than the Iris,
and will relate my experiences with one shipment
to New Zealand as an example. On the 20th of
September, last year, | packed an order in
“bone dry’ excelsior, and they were returned
twice from San Francisco through an errcr of
the Postmaster there. They were then placed in
an open shed during the winter, and planted
April 20th. Nearly every plant grew, and some
of them are in bloom now—June 15th.

T am located one and one-half miles north
of Kasson, and 17 miles west of Rochester, Minn.

Auto bus from Mantorville meets all trains
at Kasson, and passes by my nursery.
