IRMA MELROSE (DeForest, '56) Each $8.00 



Extra large lemon-yellow with faint plicata markings near the beard 

 and throat. Although of unusual size the ruffled flowers are graceful 

 and long lasting in rain or sun. Stems are very tall but strong and 

 well branched. 38-40 inches. HM AIS, 1956. 



JANE PHILLIPS (Graves, '50) Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 



A new light blue that is deeper in color than Helen McGregor, of 

 which it is a seedling. It resembles its famous parent in foiin and 

 size but because it carries more color it is distinct and worthy in its 

 own right. "We have seen no Iris which appears nearer true blue. 

 HM AIS, 1950; AM. 1952. See page 33. 



JUNE BRIDE (Hall, '52) Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 



The picture on page 31 is not quite right for this luscious, mouth- 

 watering, deep apricot-pink with the heavy geranium-red beard. It is 

 much more pink and less buff than the color plate indicates. Such 

 delectable shades are associated with Tuberous Begonias and Gladioli 

 but we have never seen them in any Iris. Large flower, horizontal 

 falls, 30 inches in height. HM AIS. 1952. 



JUNE MEREDITH (Muhlestein, '54) Each $6.00 



A complete self of rich, deep pink. In our opinion it is the best pink 

 which this well known hybridizer has produced. Color is uniform in 

 both standards and falls; vivid and alive. Large flowers on 36-inch 

 stems. HM AIS, 1954; AM, 1956. Runner-up for the Dykes Medal 

 in 1958. 



JUNE SUNLIGHT (McCormick, '53) Each $2.50 



Another brand new solid golden yellow, quite late, which will crowd 

 any of the very best for first place. The large, smooth flowers have 

 no haft markings. HM AIS. 1953. 



KARACHI (Schreiner, '58) Each $12.00 



Newest of the deep burgundy wine-on-white plicatas, darker, richer 

 and redder than Port ^Vine or Bazaar. In fact, this one is far more 

 red than anything else and the only white in it appears as a patch 

 in the center area of the broad falls. Large, perfectly formed, on 

 3-foot stems. HM AIS. 1958. 



ORIENTAL GLORY 



KAZAK (Craig, '57) Each $7.50 



A huge full yellow plicata with border of Kazak or near maroon. It's 

 the largest, fullest, finest and brightest flower of this color pattern. The 

 wide branched stem is perfect, the flowering period exceptionally long 

 and heavy: plant vigor is ideal. Height 36 inches. 



KIKI (Graves, '51) Each $5.00 



From a cross of Helen McGregor and Great Lakes came this marvelous 

 clear blue of spreading fomi. Rarely seen but sure to please those look- 

 ing for clean sparkling color. 38 inches. HM AIS, 1953. 



LADY ALBRIGHT (Muhlestein, '50) Each $1 .50 



A beautiful and brilliant blend, the standards golden copper and the 

 falls deep lavender-rose with an edge to match the standards. Nothing 

 else like it. 36-inch, well branched stems. HM AIS. 1950. 



LADY MOHR (Salbach, '44) Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 



A new and altogether different addition to the interesting 

 Wm. Mohr family of Iris, this one brings a color combination 

 previously unknown in the tall bearded group. Standards are 

 oyster-white, huge and slightly fluted, with strong midribs. 

 Falls are pale chartreuse or greenish yellow, with prominent 

 \eining. There is a very prominent clark patch surrounding 

 the beard. HM AIS, 1944: AM, 1946. Illustrated on page 26.
