GOLDBEATER (Kleinsorge, '44) Each 60c; 3 for $1.50 



A solidly colored chrome-yellow self that has invariably drawn praise 

 from judges. It is all yellow, deep and bright, without markings or 

 blendings of any kind and the buds themselves are like gobs of deep 

 yellow paint. A good grower, fast increaser, and will make a glorious 

 garden display. Large flowers, excellent branching. HM AIS, 1945; 

 AM, 1951. 



GOLDEN BLAZE (Mitsch, '56) Each $5.00 



Derived from Inca Chief, a more golden and less brown affair, and 

 with much more life. Very large in size, with heavy texture, produc- 

 ing a mass of bloom. A clump in bloom is a real eye catcher! 34 inches. 



GOLDEN CROWN (Kleinsorge, '54) Each $2.50 



An absoluteh stunning combination of old gold and richest plush- 

 like brownish maroon velvet. Twice as large as Gypsy, more richly 

 colored, and with flaring falls, it bears no resemblance to such fine 

 variegatas as Staten Island or Spanish Fandango. They are brilliant 

 and lively— Golden Crown is a luxurious combination of elegance 

 and quiet majesty. It is a seedling of Spanish Fandango. 36 inches 

 tall. HM AIS, 1957. See page 27. 



GOLDEN GARLAND (Hall, '57) Each $7.50 



A veritable giant of a flower, on stalks fully four feet in height, bloom- 

 ing very late in the season. In some ways it resembles Truly Yours, 

 but it is more of a bi-color and a different shade of yellow. Our picture 

 is too light in tone and the actual flower has definite golden yellow 

 standards and almost white falls bordered yellow. The lacework and 

 crimped petals on both standards and falls are exceptional. Here is 

 a real traffic stopper! HM AIS, 1957; .AM, 1959. Illustrated on page 46. 



GOLDEN HAWK (K. Smith, '51) Each $5.00 



A new giant yellow self with an almost velvety texture to the petals. 

 The form and carriage are about as near perfect as one could ask for 

 in any Iris and the 38-inch stems are very well branched. HM AIS, 

 1952. 



AMANDINE 



PIERRE MENARD 



GOLDEN LANCER (Pattison, '57) Each $4.00 



Broad perfectly domed flowers of white and golden yel- 

 low. Wax-like deep yellow standards, the white falls slight- 

 ly ruffled with a rich golden border. The hafts carry an 

 overlay of this same velvety yellow. 



GOLDEN PLOVER (Deforesi, '50) 



Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 



Very smooth large self, of excellent flaring form, the color 

 bright tan, a little deeper than golden tan. Quite late, on 

 38-inch stalks. HM AIS, 1951. 



GOLDEN RUSSET (Hall, '46) Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 



The unusual feature of this flower is its great size. In line with 

 the name, it is golden russet in color— a self. The enormous 

 flowers are 7 inches high and 9 inches wide, with broad hafts. 

 Grows to 40 inches tall on very heavy stalks. Golden Russet will 

 evoke many "ohs" and "ahs" from visitors. HM AIS, 1947; AM, 

 1952. 



GOLDEN SUNSHINE (Schreiner, '52) Each $1.50 



Not deep golden, not lemon, but a clean, clear bright yellow of 

 an intermediate tone. This is a big flower with wide petals and 

 lovely form— "soft as sunshine on a spring day!" 38 inches. HM 

 AIS, 1954; AM, 1956. See page 18. 



GOLD SOVEREIGN (Whiting, '50) Each 75c; 3 for $2.00 



Richest orange-yellow, deeper and more golden than Ola Kala. 

 Flowers of medium size, stems about 34 inches tall, produced in 

 profusion. Plant it near a Blue Spruce or any light blue flower 

 for stunning effect! AM, 1953.
