of the same salmony-orange-hrown blended 

 effect. Token is a far finer individual flower 

 — larger, of better form, and with smoothlv 

 colored falls. Standards are old gold flushed 

 rose, falls rosy brown-red, with very little 

 haft venation. It does not fade and is a husky 

 grower, 38 inches tall, with blooms having a 

 7-inch spread. A 1Q39 introduction from 

 David Hall, of Chicago. Shown on page 13. 



TREASURE ISLAND 



Each 75c ; 3 for $2.00 



A truly gigantic flower of bright, clear, rich 

 yellow. Tall stems, not a trace of Dykes 

 blood in its parentage, hardiness beyond 

 question. This fine iris never shows a trace 

 ol purple flecking, a fault which often crops 

 out in many otherwise excellent yellows, nor 

 is it marred by an olive cast, another short- 

 coming of a few others. The colored plate on 

 back cover is an accurate reproduction. 



TRYPTICH Each $5.00 



A large rich yellow produced by J . D. Ware- 

 ham, of Cincinnati, Ohio. Selected as a 

 favorite from his seedlings when the Iris 

 Society met there a couple ol seasons ago. 

 As it bloomed here, the color is about the 

 same shade as that of Chosen. 



VELVET KING Each $5.00 



Deep plush-likc glow ing red w ith heavy gold 

 beard. A newcomer from H. H. Harnecl, 

 amateur of Oakland, Maryland. Extra fine. 



VENUS DE MILO Each 25c ; 3 for 60c 



Pure white, of a warm creamy tone, with no 

 haft markings and a bright yellow beard. 

 The most popular white iris in commerce; a 

 splendid grower and free bloomer, it well 

 deserves the honor of runner-up for the 

 Dykes Medal in 1^)35. Three feet tall, well 

 branched. 



VIOLET SYMPHONY Each $10.00 



Cjleaming violet self, huge in size and bearing 

 many perfectly shaped blossoms. Might be 

 termed a light purple, very uniformly colored 

 except for slight bronze flush at the haft. 

 The very best iris of this class. 



WAR EAGLE Each 25c 



One of the largest iris ever produced, it will 

 often carry away honors for the biggest 

 bloom in the show. Deep mulberry red, with 

 prominent haft markings and yellow beard. 



GREAT LAKES 



TIFFANY Each $1.00 



The third member of that great Sass plicata trio, the others 

 being Orloff and Siegfried. It is soft yellow in color, with 

 stitchings of bronzy-pinkish-violet, if you can imagine such 

 a combination. Less formal in appearance than Siegfried, and 

 gives a yellow rather than a creamy-tan garden effect. Very 

 large, ruffled, vigorous growing and reasonably tall. 



TOBACCO ROAD 



The new tobacco brown iris featured on 

 brown, too. 



WAVERLY 



A 40-inch clear 



by all judges who have seen it. Very early in the tall bearded 

 class, clean color, with widely flaring falls and nice branching.

 A monster flower, of medium height, with small foliage. Does 

 better if divided and transplanted at least every other year. 



YELLOW JEWEL Each $10.00 



l or two or three seasons this fine deep yellow has been the 

 outstanding thing of its color around New York and Boston. 

 Produced by Kenneth Smith, it has every good point in way 

 of growth and the large flowers are of a uniform golden yellow
