SYMPHONY (H/n/c/e, '58) Each $10.00 



Gracefullv lufHed sea-blue self, slightly lighter in the center of the 

 falls and with some darker texttire veining. Petals are wide and full, 

 crisp and firm in substance. Midseason; 38 inches. HM AIS, 1958. 

 Shown on back cover. 



TABU (Schreiner, '54) Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 



An ebony-bkie-black self; even the beard is virtually black. Petals 

 are glossv and shine in the sun. A larger, taller and much better 

 fornfed Black Forest. Height 38 inches. HM AIS, 1954. 



TAHOLAH (Gibson, '56) Each $5.00 



The picture on page 34 will convey a much more complete and ac- 

 curate description of this new plicata than simple words can tell. 

 We had this big ruffled novelty on trial in our display garden for 

 two seasons before deciding to introduce it. The ground color is 

 creamy ivory, the standards heavily shaded cinnamon-red and the 

 falls are evenly brushed with this same russet-red tint on the haft 

 and at the outer edges. Long lasting, very large, on stout 3-foot stems. 

 The Indian name means "Village by the Sea." HM .MS, 1956; AM, 

 1958. 



TALLCHIEF (Deforest, '56) Each $3.00 



Bright, richly glowing red self, with brilliant or- 

 ange beard. By the Ridgeway color chart it is Brazil - 

 red to carmine. A real advance in red Iris, tall, and 

 very well branched. HM AIS, 1957. See page 12. 



TALLY-HO (Hall, '49) Each $1.50; 3 for $4.00 



The upper part of the falls is close to the deep color- 

 ing seen in bright fuchsia colored Orchids. The 

 domed standards and lower part of the falls arc 

 lighter. This is something new, pleasing and differ- 

 ent! The 32-inch stems are stout but a little closely 

 branched for such large flower. HM AIS, 1950. 



TECHNY CHIMES (Bro. Charles, '55) Each $3.00 

 A gorgeous light yellow with very deep red-orange 

 beard. From similar breeding as the new Garden 

 Gold, but a different shade of yellow and very unlike 

 it in form. This is certainly a striking Iris and the 

 branching is a special feature. HM AIS, 1955; AM, 

 1957; tied for Dykes Medal in I960. 36 inches. See 

 page 11. 



TEMPLE BELLS (Hall, '52) 



Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 



Larger and more metallic colored 

 Hi-Time— a sort of apricot-yellow 

 with no peachy undertone. The 

 blooms are extra large, the falls 

 flaring way out and then drooping 

 gracefully with a slight ruflle. Note 

 the heavy red-orange beard. A seed- 

 ling of Dolly Varden, considered 

 by Mr. Hall as his finest golden 

 apricot self, 36 inches, well 

 branched. HM AIS, 19.52. See page 

 35. 



THE CITADEL (Wafkins, '54) 



Each $2.50 



Here is a seedling of the grand 

 pure white Helen McKenzie and 

 one which most critics agree will 

 be a leader for years to come. It 

 would be hard to imagine any- 

 thing more nearly perfect. HM 

 AIS, 1954; AM, 1959. 



THOTMES III (Kleinsorge, '50) 



Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 



Years ago we introduced Tobacco Road. Since then 

 the Kleinsorge "browns" have become known and 

 grown the world over . . . deep browns, pale tans, 

 sidtry blends in many hues. This one is medium 

 light in tone, a smooth self of glistening golden tan 

 with a light bronze beard. It is a gigantic Iris with 

 extra broad falls and heavy texture. 40 inches tall. 

 HM AIS. 1951; AM, 1953. One of the "Five Iris of 

 the Year" for 1959. Shown on page 38. 



TOAST AN' HONEY (Kle insorge, '58) Each $3.00 



An altogether different tan and brown Iris from the 

 originator of such things as San Antone and 

 Thotmes III. A full and generously proportioned 

 flower, with wide segments, the falls flaring ane' 

 waved at the edges. General color is rich light golden 

 brown, like butter and honey, and the falls are 

 shaded deeper toast-brown, especially on the edges 

 and near the hafts. It is of stocky build, well 

 branched, with verv large blooms produced on 32- 

 inch stems. HM AIS, 1955. See page 11. 



TOLL GATE (Cook, '59) Each $15.00 



From the same line of breeding as Whole Cloth. Standards are 

 palest blue— almost white— the falls dark violet with a long yellow 

 beard extending across the lighter haft. Very tall, with many large 

 flowers per stem; widely spaced, it should be very valuable to hv- 

 bridizeis. HM AIS, 1959. 



TOP FAVORITE (Schreiner, '57) Each $3.00 



Colossal orchid-pink, derived from Pink Plume and Pathfinder. The 

 beard is white and there is a soft overlay of amber-buff at the center 

 of the flower. Color is clear and bright and the blossoms are ideallv 

 formed, flaring and ruHled at the outer edges. It is tall, strong and 

 branched to perfection. HM AIS, 1957. 



"Received our Iris today. Thank you lor the wonderful service and plants 

 you have given us every time."
