BALLET GIRL Each 30c ; 3 for 75c 



Pure blush pink, soft and daintily colored, with large rounded 

 flaring falls. The lightest shade of pink of any iris in our 

 list, with nicely branched stalks 3 feet in height. 



BALMUNG Each $3.00 



Just about the finest, in our opinion, of all the Sass series of 

 yellow plicatas. A more yellow Siegfried, with better form 

 and carriage. Much larger than others of this series, with tall 

 stejns and good habits. Clean markings of brown etch both 

 standards and falls. 



BATAAN Each $7.50 



A very dark blend of coppery plum, henna and rich brown. 

 Freshly opened flowers exhibit a very pronounced henna 

 cast, some of which is missing in the illustration. An attrac- 

 tive feature of this iris is its rather oval shape, the falls 

 starting to flare widely and then gracefully curving down- 

 ward and slightly backward at the tips — horizontally oval, 

 not elongated. This provides an eyefull when viewed at any 

 angle. 



Dr. Kleinsorge again gives us something apart from the 

 usual run of iris colors, in a plant with good growing habits, 

 well branched stalks, and flowers above average size. Height 

 three feet or slightly over. More stock permits lower price 

 than in the case of Tobacco Road or Ormaco. 



BERKELEY GOLD Each $5.00 



This was a sensation in our garden during the blooming 

 season just ended. It is the tallest and probably the richest 

 deep yellow that we have ever grown. The flowers are very 

 large on well-branched stems that reach four feet in height. 

 A new yellow from Carl Salbach that is worth much more 

 than the modest price asked for a new introduction. 



BERMUDA SAND Each $ 1 . 50 



A glorified and gigantic Jean Cayeux, both standards and 

 falls heavily ruffled. Deeper in color than Jean Cayeux, a 

 light coffee tan with a glint of gold. Freshly opened blooms 

 are reddish gold. Strong growing with clean broad foliage 

 and sturdy bloom stalks. It is one of the famous seedlings 

 from David Hall of Wilmette, Illinois. 



BIRCHBARK Each $1 .00 ; 3 for $2.50 



A white from Dr. Kleinsorge, introduced in 1940. A very 

 large flower, the falls broadly spreading and with a pro- 

 nounced rounded shape. Solid clean white, with a very cool 

 inner glow. Of medium height, to three feet, with splendid 

 branching. One of the parents of "Arctic. " 



BEOWULF ' Each 25c 



True maroon red, with a brownish undertone of exceptional 

 velvety richness. A seedling of Grace Sturtevant, large, early 

 blooming and well branched. 



BEVERLY Each $2.00 



This is a new iris most suitable for garden effect, decidedly 

 pink in tone, increasing rapidly and blooming abundantly. 

 Blooms are of good size, well shaped, and have a distinct edge 

 of golden brown. Heavy yellow beard, slight gold reticula- 

 tions. One of the new Lapham pinks. 



BLACK VALOR Sold Out 



Not as tall as some of the other so-called black iris, but one 

 of the very best and most richly colored of all. A glossy and 

 velvety purple-black; even the beard is extremely dark. No 

 veining to mar its inky darkness. 



BLUE DANUBE Each 50c ; 3 for $1 .25 



A rich deep blue self, with blue tipped beard. Very large in 

 size, with widely flaring falls. An English introduction. 



BLUE DIAMOND Each $1.50 



A clear sky blue self, clean and sparkling. Lighter in tone 

 than Great Lakes, of different form, but of equally high 

 quality. The beard shades from blue-white to lemon, adding 

 a delicate touch of color. About three feet tall. 



BLUE SPIRE Each $1.50 



A four-foot medium blue self, clear and sparkling, of extra 

 fine form. This is one of the best of the famous Milliken blues. 

 Awarded an H. M. in 1939. 



BONANZA Each 75c ; 3 for $2.00 



Most yellow of all the new type plicatas, with very rich 

 ground color and thick veining of brown on the standards, 

 less on the falls. A rapid growing and prolific flowering 

 variety. 



BRONZING Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 



Standards frosty golden bronze, falls bright coppery bronze. 

 This is a very large flower and vigorous grower, from Carl 

 Salbach in California. 



BROWN BOY Each $3.50 



Seedling of Copper Lustre and Radiant, from Carl Salbach 

 in 1940. A larger flower than Radiant with the very brilliant 

 copper and orange tones found in both parents. Of medium 

 height but with very low branching. 



BROWN THRASHER Each $20.00 



A very bright coppery golden brown, much like Copper 

 Lustre in appearance and growing habit. It is much more 

 brilliant than Copper Lustre. 



BRUNHILDE Each 50c ; 3 for $1 .25 



Very dark uniform violet-blue self, including an unusual blue 

 beard. A most regal iris of great color intensity, with splendid 

 stems and widely flaring blossoms. 



BUCKSKIN Each $ 1 . 50 ; 3 for $4 . 00 



Bearing a most appropriate title, this iris is by far the best 

 tan in our entire collection. The stalks rise to a height of four 

 feet, bearing close to a dozen great blooms with large closed 

 standards and wide flaring falls. Practically a self in color, it 

 makes a magnificent companion to the blue of Great Lakes. 



BURNING BRONZE Each 25c 



A dark but blazing metallic red, a flower of great size and 

 one which has carved a favorable name for itself these past 

 several seasons. It differs from most other reds in its bronzy 

 finish. 



CALCUTTA Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 



Fall and imposing flower in delicate cocoa-brown tones, 

 entirely overlaid with a bluish veil. Of bold growing habit, 

 widely branched, carrying more than a dozen blooms per 

 stalk. 



CALIFORNIA GOLD Each 25c ; 3 for 60c 



By all odds the best value in a yellow iris at anywhere near 

 the price. It is an easy grower and free bloomer, deep glitter- 

 ing yellow of very large size, and surpasses everything in its 

 color except the recent novelties. We have a huge stock, 

 hence the low price. 



CALIFORNIA PEACH Each $8.50 



A new pink-peach blend from California. This iris has much 

 more gold and yellow in it than does China Maid. Well 

 branched, with a very long blooming season. 



CAPITOLA Each $2.00 



Bright reddish violet hybrid, quite similar to Wm. Mohr in 

 appearance, but a much larger flower w ith a rosy-red effect.
