GYPSY LULLABY 



ANTHEM (Schreiner, '58) Each $1 .50 



The richness of the fuchsia-purple tone is intensified by a generous 

 margin of bronze around the huge falls. There is also a subtle in- 

 fusion of this same bronze tint in the taffeta-like standards. Metallic 

 plum might well describe the general color effect of this new giant. 

 Beard is lemon. 40 inches; fairly early. HM AIS, 1960. 



APPLE VALLEY (DeForest, '58) Each $3.00 



Almost white, flushed pink, with deeper pink cast about the hafts. 

 The pink-tinted beard intensifies the pinkish glow of an otherwise 

 almost white, very beautiful and different flower. Very large, with 

 broad petals and tall stalks. HM AIS, 1960. See page 18. 



APRICOT DANCER (Noyd, '58) Each $2.50 



A late flowering orange-apricot self, from a cross of June Bride and 

 Temple Bells. The horizontal and flaring falls are nicely fringed 

 with lace. Substance is extra heavy. Here is a decidedly rich piece of 

 color which won the HM of the AIS in 1959. 



ARCTIC FLAME (Fay, '60) Each $10.00 



This breathtakingly beautiful big white has heavy texture and much 

 ruffling. The beard is thick and wide, and glows with a fiery reddish 

 tinge. A stalwart grower, the 35-inch stalks sturdy and well branched. 

 HM AIS, 1960; AM, 1962. 



ARCTIC SKIES (Fay, '60) Each $5.00 



A large white with blue tinted standards coming from Cliffs of Dover 

 and Butterfly Blue parentage. A lovely and fresh looking flower, al- 

 though the blue cast of the standards is rather phantom-like. HM 

 AIS, 1961; AM, 1964. 



ARGUS PHEASANT (DeForesf, '48) Each $1 .00; 3 for $2.50 



A. smooth soft brown, deeper in tone and more metallic in finish than 

 Pretty Quadroon. Huge flowers with broad flaring falls and wide 

 standards; orange-brown beard. 38 inches tall. HM AIS, 1948: .\M, 

 1950; Dykes Medal, 1952. Shown on page 47. 



ASPENGLOW CLoom/s, '56) Each $1 .00; 3 for $2.50 



Vivid cadmium yellow self, the standards pleated or tucked near the 

 base. This fine, large deep yellow is quite late and thus aids in ex- 

 tending the Iris season. One of the "Five Iris of the Year" for 1962. 

 HM AIS, 1958. 



AZURITE (Sass, '60) Each $6.00 



A new and distinct white plicata pattern, the borders very lightly 

 stitched blue and the style arms and crests almost solid moorish 

 blue. Flowers are of thick texture and the stems well branched. 

 Large, bright and sparkling! HM AIS, 1961.
