Good Iris Varieties
Are Worth While

standards of excellence, form
of flower, ETC., and they have
selected those which conform
to such standards.
The main point to be stressed
is that there are many very
fine varieties from which to
choose and the beginner might
well try to see a collection so
that his choice will include the
many rainbow" colorS, on
good plants.
Iris are not difficult to grow
so long as they have lots Of
sunlight and a well drained
situation. The latter is easily
provided since Iris do very well
in a slightly raised bed. They
will not thrive nor flower well
even in light shade.
The snowy iris is only one of
many sections Of this large
family which may be enjoyed
by Washington area gardeners.
The dubious Dutch iris are fine
cutflowerS and are grown from
bulbs planted in the fall. The
dwarf f-bearded, the intermedi-
ate bearded and the tall
bearded are the major divisions
and most people concentrate
on the tall-bearded varieties
although the dwarfs are the
earliest to flower and are fol-
lowed by the intermediates.
Then there are the shade low
ing species-Iris cristata and
Iris verna. The water iris, Iris
pSuedacorus, Is another which
is best used near q pool or
stream. And, for variation the
gardener might well tackle the
Japanese roof iris Girls tee
torum). the Japanese iris Girls
kaempferD. the Siberian iris
Girls sibirica), and the last to
flower in the summer, Iris
dichotoma.

NEW YORK, N. Y, May
26.-Over 900 varieties of
iris at the New York Bo-
tanical Garden were in full
bloom today when the gar
den played host to the
American Iris Society, now
celebrating its 4lst ami
versary.
The society was organ
lied at the New York Bo-
tanical Garden on Janu-
ary 90, 1920. More than
$50 iris growers from coast
to coast are expected to
attend the anniversary
ceremonies today, part of

Metropolitan New York
and New Jersey, May 1928.

BY BILL YOUNGMAN
Star Garden Editor

s' Too often the iris grower
does not think of his varieties
or of their beauty until the
Towering season is on. When
In bloom there is not much
that can be done, but with all
Of the many modern varieties,
and some Of the old timers,
there is no reason for keeping
the poorer and less desirable
varieties. Iris just don't cost
that much.
, OF course there are thou
sands Of varieties from which
to choose, but better still, visit
any one Of the several fine iris
collections in the Washington
area to see what really good
iris look like. Not only do they
have better plants with fine
branching flower stalks, but
the best varieties have more
substance to the flowers and
thus are better able to with
stand spring showers.
Mention was made above of
the good new varieties as well
as Of those of yesteryear that
are still good enough to rate
today. Great Lakes is the one
I have in mind that has stood
well up in the iris poll for the
past Is years. Ola Kala is
another Of the really good ones
that stay with us year after
year.
More especially we should
remember that iris are prolific
growers and do not stay in the
higher priced brackets for more
than 5 or 10 years. Then they
drop into the minimum priced
varieties which means that the
grower will not dig and package
for less than a minimum
charge. However, the beginner
can select from some Of the
bargain offers and get a fine
collection of inexpensive varie-
ties that have all the brilliancy
Of the rainbow.
Great Lakes is q fine big
blue, and Ola Kala Is q good
yellow, to these we might add:
Zantha q vigorous yellow
White Tower, Cloud Cap. Har-
Dor Blue, Palamino, Radiation,
Party Dress, Caroline Jane.
Truly Yours, Thotmes III,
Storm Warning, Port Wine,
Black Hills, Pierre Menard,

are only suggestions and the
real growers and iris fans Of
the community will scott at
such an ordinary list. That is
as it should be, there are al
ways those who have certain
