Awards of the American Iris Society following variety descrip- 

 tion are indicated thus: HM.— Honorable Mention; AM.— Award 

 of Merit. 



ACCENT (Buss, '53) Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 



Large, tall and vigorous variegata. The clean yellow standards con- 

 trast most agreeably with the rose-red falls. Its bright color and huge 

 size resulted in its having been selected as one of the five "Iris of the 

 Year" for 1958. 36 inches. 



Each $3.00 



It is one of the 



earliest reds to bloom, with Pacemaker and Argus Pheasant in its 

 breeding background. 34 inches. 



AGATINE (Schreiner, '59) 



A supremely smooth, trimly tailored, velvety red 



AHOY (Tompkins, '57) Each $5.00 



Best described as a rosy toned cherry-red with a faint undertone of 

 blue that adds to its brilliance and carrying power. Flowers are large, 

 heavily substanced and have lovely flaring form. 36-inch, well 

 branched stems. Medium late. 



ELEANOR'S PRIDE 



ALALOA (Gibson, '59) Each $5.00 



Lemon vellow with a lighter aiea in the center of the falls. Remem- 

 ber the old variety Elsa Sass? This is a somewhat similar color ar- 

 rangement but the comparison is hardly adequate. .-Maloa ("Little 

 Song") is a huge blossom. \ery wide and full, the standards broad, 

 domed and glistening. Falls flare and possess a heavv enamel-like tex- 

 ture. It is a flower for foreground planting since its height is only 

 about two feet. There is surely a definite place for plants of such 

 stature and you will be thrilled with this one! HM AIS, 1961. 



AL BORAK (DeForest, '52) Each $1.00 



.\ \erv large biown and copper-russet flower, having wide spreading 

 falls with extremely u'ide hafts. A light brown garden effect in an 

 Iris which many judges regard as absolutelv perfect in form. Three 

 feet in height, finely branched. HM .\IS, 1953. 



ALICE LEMEN (Plough, '57) Each $6.00 



This big, lacy beauty hints of Truly Yours in form and size though 

 it is of lighter and softer color tones and the two are not related. 

 The giant flow^ers are heavily laced and fringed, on very tall stems. 

 Falls are white, shaded Empire yellow at the haft; standards are solid 

 Empire yellow and the beard is also vellow. HM .MS. I960.
