CAROLINE BURR Each $10.00 



Truly something different in a cream or white iris — a cool 

 ivory with an odd cast of soft and elusive green. Large and 

 well proportioned, from three to four feet tall, splendidly 

 branched. This is our choice of all the fine Kenneth Smith 

 introductions. Very limited stock. 



CARVED IVORY Each 50c 



Large creamy ivory self with thick petals, about three teet 

 in height. A California introduction and especially fine there. 



CASQUE D'OR Sold Out 



Deep old gold standards, considerably ruffled, v\ ith greenish 

 mid-ribs. Falls are richest blackishjnaroon. A brighter and 

 more striking edition of El Tovar. 



CHARLOTTE MILLET Each $2.00 



A new thing from France and one which created quite a stir 

 last season. The color is bright reddish lilac in a shade that 

 is both novel and beautiful. Very few plants. 



CHARM Each 75c ; 3 for $2.00 



Quite a different tone of strawberry red, a bit lighter than 

 most other reds, and with a slight smoky wash that seems 

 to restrain the color. It is large in size, blooming somewhat 

 late. 



CHEERIO Each 30c 



In the red class this has no peer at the same price It is tall, 

 vigorous, dependable, and a striking red iris in the garden. 

 It holds the same position in this color that California Gold 

 does amongst the yellows. 



CHINA MAID Each $1.00 



Here again we are confronted with the task of describing an 

 indescribable iris! This is in shades of pink, golden copper, 

 and lilac, smoothly blended together. Large size and fine form 

 add to its high quality. 



CHRISTABEL Each 50c 



Red . . . and it will not disappoint the most exacting critic. 

 For sheer brilliance we rank it second only to the new Red 

 Gleam from Mr. Lapham, the same originator. Glorious as 

 a garden clump, almost a self, of large size, over 3 feet tall. 



CITY OF LINCOLN Each $1.50 



Brightest, largest, and surely the finest of all variegatas. 

 Clear golden yellow standards, broad fiery red falls, startling 

 in their contrast. Of bold habit, one of the triumphs from 

 Hans Sass, 



CLARET VELVET Each $2.00 



One of the most velvety pieces of deep color that we have 

 ever seen in an iris. Glowing blackish wine, without venation, 

 set off by a pronounced burnt orange beard. Perfect form 

 and good branching, but only about thirty inches in height. 

 However, irises of such height are needed tor the foreground. 



COPPER LUSTRE Each 35c ; 3 for 90c 



Entirely different from all others, its great popularity has 

 resulted not only from the odd anci beautiful copper tone of 

 its flowers, but also from the fact that it performs well in all 

 sections of the country. It positively glows in its bright 

 copper, gold, and pinkish tan blendings. Dykes Medal, 1938. 

 Now sold at a price that will permit everyone to own it 



CORINTHE Each 75c ; 3 for $2.00 



A huge purple self, bishops violet by Ridgeway, with an 

 almost white beard, blooming at the very last of the season. 



CRYSTAL BEAUTY Each 25c ; 3 for 60c 



fall, clean white from the Sass Brothers, hardier than Puris- 

 sima, giving somewhat the same garden effect. 40 inches. 



DAMERINE Sold Out 



Here is a new red singled out by critics as one of the surprises 

 in this color group. A large flower of deep red, with domed 

 standards and wide flaring falls. It received the Bronze 

 Medal of the A.l.S. at the New York World's Fair in 1940. 

 Sold out last year, and few plants now available. 



DAYBREAK Each $7.50 



A huge golden pink, with slight undertones of ccjpper. 1 he 

 flowers are well shaped, with closed standards and falls that 

 are semi-flaring, but there is a suggestion of ruffling in the 

 entire blossom. It has excellent branching and the stems are 

 three to four feet tall. The name is most appropriate. 



This iris received an award of the American Iris Society 

 in 1942, and reports of those w ho have seen it in many parts 

 of the country indicate that it w ill be one of the most popular 

 varieties that we have ever introduced. 



DEEP VELVET Each $4.00 



A striking Salbach introduction of 1939, one of the richest 

 and best dark irises we have yet seen. Self colored in very 

 dark, yet bright, blackish red purple, with perfectly formed 

 blossoms of very large size. Brownish suffusion at the haft, 

 with deep bronze beard. 



DERRILL HART Each $1.00 



A very new thing which might be described as a brighter 

 but deeper colored Depute Nomblot. Standards are rose shot 

 with bronze, the falls deep velvety wine. Tall and of heavy 

 growth. 



DESTINY Each 40c ; 3 for $1 .00 



A great heavy flower of deepest blackish bronze purple, with 

 rich golden beard. From New Zealand, and it ranks as one 

 of the truly fine novelties not recently produced in this 

 country — there are so few of them. 



DIRECTEUR PINELLE Each 25c 



The color is richest maroon purple, with bronzy undertone, 

 and few irises are of greater size. Newly opened blossoms are 

 almost black. Of splendid form and perfect branching habit. 



DYMIA Each 25c ; 3 for 60c 



A rich deep blue self, on the order of Narain but much darker. 

 Blooms at the same time and makes a fine companion to it. 

 The blue beard intensifies the uniformity of color. Three feet 

 tall, very early. 



E. B. WILLIAMSON Each 75c ; 3 for $2.00 



Glowing coppery red blend, a deeper and redder effect than 

 Rosy Wings. Not to be confused with either the reds or the 

 coppers, it stands in a special niche all its own. Large flowers 

 of silky texture, fragrant, on 3-foot stems. Awarded the Gold 

 Medal as finest iris in the Rome. Italy, trials. 



ELIZABETH ANN Each $2.50 



This new pink ins is one of the very last to flower in our 

 garden. Very tall, with as many as 1 1 blooms per stalk. A 

 blend of pink shades, with much cream in its makeup. One 

 of Lapham s new ones. 



ELLA WINCHESTER Each 35c ; 3 for 90c 



Rich mahogany red self w ith very long velvety falls. Absence 

 of haft markings gives it great depth of color.
