The Book of the Iris (Classic Reprint) by R. Irwin Lynch Pdf
Excerpt from The Book of the Iris This work has been written with two principal aims in view. I have endeavoured, in the first place, to give all the useful information upon culture that is available, and, secondly, to provide an easy and efficient means for the verification of names and for the naming of plants. In the verification of names that happen to be correct there Should be no difficulty, but with regard to the naming of plants, it must be remembered that Irises are exceedingly variable. They hybridise both in the garden and in a wild state, and intermediates, or forms not agreeing precisely with any description, are at least liable to be met with. I still hope, however, that naming will be effected in most cases without difficulty. By dividing into small, easily understood groups, and by the construction of keys, I have hoped to provide a special facility.
