SEAFARER (Buffrick, '49) Each $1.50

 the sea and it is most appropriate. A true deep 

 blue self, free from the veining so prevalent 

 in many blue Iris. Standards are domed and 

 the falls flare out handsomely. 36 inches tall. 

 HM AIS, 1949.

A tall, stately rose colored flower with tawny 

 russet hafts and style arms. The beard is 

 bronze-orange. The falls flare widely and are

 sturdy, well branched stems is ideal. Height 

 36-40 inches. 



SIERRA SKIES (Schortman, '54) 



Each $5.00 



Here we have the blue of a bright blue sky, 

 the large blossoms superbly held on tall stems

 nearest to spectrum-blue. 38 inches. HM AIS, 

 1954; AM, 1956. 



SILVERTONE (Hall, '59) Each $15.00'; 



A beautifully proportioned silvei^ pale blue- 

 almost white— with tangerine beard. There is 

 a slight hint of orchid in the color of this very 

 large Iris. It has been used by Mr. Hall to 

 obtain a wide range of seedlings in pale or- 

 chid and blue-white tints with tangerine 

 beards. This is a parent of "Step Forward." 

 Heavy stems, 36 inches. See page 11.

 heavily ruffled medium blue dominates the 

 Iris garden. The three-way branched stems 

 open one flower each at a time, excellently 

 spaced. The flowers are large, of very attrac- 

 tive form and good substance. It is so strong 

 and vigorous that it has held up in storms 

 when shorter and smaller varieties have gone 

 down. HM AIS, 1949; AM. 1952. 



SOLID GOLD (Kleinsorge, '51) 



Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50
