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 Da\ id Hall of Wilmette, Illinois. Shown on page 18.

 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 $3.50 



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 Each $ 1 . 50 



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 40c 



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

 size, with widely flaring falls. An English introduction. 



BLUE DIAMOND Each $2.00 



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$L50 



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 $L00 ; 3 f or $2.50 



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, 



BO PEEP Each $2.00 



A beautiful cream-pink iris that is most striking as a garden 

 clump, with thin stems that remind one of Siberian iris. It is 

 well branched, a mass of bloom, and increases fast. The 

 upper portion of the falls and entire base of standards are 

 cream colored. A fine companion to Beverly, from the same 

 introducer. 



BRONZINO Each $L00; 3 for $2.50 



Standards frosty golden bronze, falls bright coppery bronze. 

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

 Sal bach in California. 



BROWN BOY Each $7.50 



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. 



BRUNHILDE Each 50c ; 3 for $ L 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 $2.00 ; 3 for $5.00 



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 $ L 00 ; 3 for $2 . 50 



Tall 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. 



CAROLINE BURR Each $15.00 



Truly something different in a cream or white iris — a coo! 

 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 feet 

 in height. A California introduction and especially fine there. 



CHARLOTTE MILLET Each $4.00 



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 $1 .00 ; 3 for $2.50 



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 25c 



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 cjuality. 



CHOSEN Each $3.50 



The great new yellow from Southern California. Of tremen- 

 dous size, solidly colored metallic yellow, even the beard 

 being the same uniform shade. 



CHRISTABEL Each 75c 



Red . . . and it w ill not disappoint the most exacting critic, 

 f-^or 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 $2.00 



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.
