GRAND CANYON (Kleinsorge, '41) 



Each 60c; 3 for $1.50 



An odd blend of rather deep tones of 

 plum and copper, and gold. Entirely dif- 

 ferent from any Iris we have ever intro- 

 duced, it is an Iris to be admired at close 

 range and is especially suited to bringing 

 indoors and associating with Oriental 

 rugs. Attractively formed and delicately 

 ruffled. About 40 inches tall, perfectly 

 branched, and it flowers over a very long 

 season. Very large, it is accurately shown 

 in color on page 30. HM AIS. 1943; AM, 

 1944. 



GRAND TETON (Deforest, '56) 



Each $12.00 



One of the largest of all Iris, with 8-inch 

 flowers on 40-inch stalks. Wax -yellow 

 standards, the falls slightly deeper and 

 heavily rufHed. Hafts are broad and the 

 stvle arms are crinkled like an oncobred. 

 HM AIS, 1957. 



GYPSY CLASSIC (DeForest, '50) 



Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 



Wide, flaring, neat flowers of royal brown, 

 having brilliant henna overlay. Deep gold 

 styles and bright orange beard. HM .\IS, 

 1952. 



HELEN 



McGregor 



HALLMARK (Hall, '54) Each $2.50 



A golden apricot or caramel self in the color range of Hi-Time and 

 Meiody Lane. This is a very large flower, smoothly finished and 

 gracefully ruffled, the falls extra broad and surmounted by a rich 

 tangerine beard. Height 3 feet, well branched. HM AIS, 1954. 



HAPPY BIRTHDAY (Hall, '52) Each $1.50; 3 for $4.00 



Peer of all the flamingo-pinks to date. It is twice as large as Heritage 

 and much the same shade of pink; deeper in color than Ballerina, 

 much larger and more colorful than Pink Sensation. It has bowled 

 over all who have seen it. Happy Birthday is not just a sumptuous 

 flower ... it has bold foliage, big, hea\'y stalks, large rhizomes and 

 increases at a rapid rate. Height 3 feet. HM .AIS, 1952; AM, 1954. 

 Shown in color on page 32. 



HAPPY WANDERER (Lapham, '57) Each $10.00 



A clear tapestry red self with clean, smooth hafts and a dark orange 

 beard. This is the largest red Iris we have seen. Both standards and 

 falls are full, well rounded and the shade of red is vibrant and glow- 

 ing. Our illustration on page 47 is a factual likeness of this grand 

 flower. Height 36 inches. 



HARBOR BLUE (Schreiner, '54) Each $2.50 



This new blue, of startling size, has been winning fame both in this 

 country and abroad. The great flowers are borne on husky stalks 

 reaching almost four feet and they hold up in all kinds of weather. 

 HM AIS. 1955; AM, 1957. 



HARVEST SPLENDOR (Kleinsorge, '56) Each $2.50 



A smooth blend of gold and apricot, the standards solid apricot 

 faintly tinted rose, the falls bright old gold shading to apricot near 

 the margins. Beard is orange-vellow. The flowers are well tailored, 

 just slightly waved at the edges of the falls. Substance is thick and 

 the petal surface glistens with myriad golden particles. A clump 

 produces lots of bloom thus making it an ideal variety for mass effect 

 in the garden. 3 feet; midseason. In color on page 22. 



PINK CAMEO 



HEATHER ROSE (Hall, '50) Each 60c; 3 for $1.50 



This is a large rosy orchid-pink, but of a different shade from any 

 Iris we have seen. The color is new, pleasing and very close to that 

 of Scotch Heather. Form, stem and branching are all good. It is a 

 vigorous grower, hardy and blooms freely. A fine Iris in every way 

 and brings a bit of new color to the garden. HM AIS. 1951. 



HELEN COLLINGWOOD (K. Smith, '49) Each $1.50 



A \'ery brilliant Iris in the neglecta class. Standards are light laven- 

 der, the falls bright violet-purple ... a decided contrast. Stalks are 

 40 inches tall, sturdy and vigorous. HM AIS, 1950; AM, 1952. Shown 

 on page 35. 



HELEN McGregor fCroves, '46) Each 75c; 3 for $2.00 



Clear pale blue, pure and uniform in color, the beard lemon-yellow. 

 Of perfect form, flaring and daintily ruffled, very large, beautifully 

 spaced on nice stems, it is not only supreme as a light blue but ranks 

 as one of the best of modem Irises. HM AIS, 1946; AM, 1948; Dykes 

 Medal, 1949. See above.
