COOL COMFORT (Tompkins, '58) Each $1 .00; 3 for $2.50 



A lovely citron-yellow Iris of large size and delightful form. The

COPPER HALO (Gibson, '58) Each $1 .50; 3 for $4.00 



A creamy white or ivory ground in both standards and falls, heavily 

 peppered and stitched with rosy copper. Broad petals, graceful ruf- 

 fling and thick texture mark this strain and set a new standard for 

 plicata types. Copper Halo is a lively color pattern which blends well 

 in almost anv garden scheme. Very late. 34-36 inches in height. HM 

 AIS, 1958. See page 12. 



COUNTRYSIDE (DeForest, '59) Each $2.00

 plicata dusting of lavender across the wide hafts. Tall, vigorous and 

 excellent in every way. HM AIS, 1962. Ver>' late. 



COURT BALLET (Moldovan, '60) Each $10.00 



Here is a new and exquisitely ruffled big pink self of extra heax'y 

 porcelain-like finish. Refined and lovely even though it ranks among 

 the largest in this color class. Beard is deep red-orange. Heavy 36- 

 inch stems. HM AIS, 1961; AM, 1963. 



CRINKLED BEAUTY (Schreiner, '61) Each $1 5.00 



A fine example of the progress in breeding for lace- — possibly the 

 top production in this line. The large flowers, a delicate orchid 

 pink in color, have wide petals and extra heaw substance. Height 

 38 inches. HM AIS, 1962. 



DENVER DAWN 



COFFEE ROYAL (Merrill, '61) Each $5.00 



A gigantic blend of reddish brown and reddish purple, the 

 standards garnet brown and the falls Doge purple. The haft 

 and a very narrow edge of the falls are same color as the 

 standards. Beard is brownish with purple tips. This is a stal- 

 wart, vigorous grower, over three feet. HM AIS, 1963. 



COLLEGE QUEEN (Hall, '64) Each $15.00 



As the illustration shows, this new pink is adorned with frills 

 and ruffles. It is devoid of any other color, with exception of 

 the tangerine beard. Great size and heavy texture are traits 

 sometimes lacking in pinks but this one has both! 36 inches. 

 See page 17. 



"Received the iris, and as usual was amazed 

 at the strong healthy plants. What amazes 

 me is the fact, tho my order was small, you 

 packed it as carefully as you would an ex- 

 pensive large order." 



Mrs. John O. Sanders 



Cassville, Mo. 



COLOR CARNIVAL (Deforest, '49) 



Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50

 formed, on excellent stalks. HM AIS, 1950.

CONCORD RIVER (Buttrick, '56) Each $2.00; 3 for $5.00
