Starburst $7.50 



WAR LORD (Schreiner, '68) M. 35" Each $17.50 



The premier new red from these introducers of superb red Iris. Be- 

 cause it has just about everything one could wish for in the make-up 

 of a fauhless flower— size, substance, ruffling and velvety texture, the 

 demand for it has just about outdone the supply. HM AIS, 1969. 



WAYWARD WIND (Baker, '58) EM. Each $1 .00; 3 for $2.50 



Burnished bronze, a peculiar greenish shade of tan or brown. Even 

 the beard is in harmony. This Iris has rather flat, flaring falls, with 

 some ruffling and the large blooms are produced in profusion. Height 

 3 ft. HM AIS, 1958; AM, 1961, See page 53. 



WENATCHEE VALLEY (Noyd, '65) ML. 34" Each $10.00 



Frilled lacey pink standards, edged tan; wide, flaring falls of creamy 

 white edged with pinkish tan. With its very red beard it is one of the 

 most beautiful and novel of all recent introductions. HM AIS, 1966. 

 Picture on page 44. 



WHITE TAFFETA (Rudolph, '66) ML. 35" Each $10.00 



Quite different from other excellent white Iris in this catalog. The 

 huge flowers are as white as freshly laundered linen but the beard 

 is pale lemon. Both standards and falls are broad and fluted at the 

 margins, creating a billowy effect. HM AIS, 1967.

 of Paul Cook. Standards are pure white, the falls soft medium blue

W!ID APACHE (Gibson, '65) M. 35" Each $3.50 



Si vivid and lively that the name is truly in keeping with this sen- 

 satii lal new plicata. The color is cinnamon-violet on white, the 

 standa almost solidly colored cinnamon-violet. Beard is orange- 

 bronze. .. 1 exceptionally large flower, with perfect balance and ideal 

 ruffling, vt. broad in all its parts. Heavy stems, extra good branch- 

 ing. HM AIS, 066. See page 26. 



WILD GINGER (Gibson, '62) M. 36" Each $1.50 



A deeply flounced and ruffled new plicata in ginger grown and 

 creamy white, the standards almost solid soft brown. Flowers mea- 

 sure almost 8 inches from tip to tip. The heavy ruffling extends far 

 up into the throat which is peppered with a wann golden brown. 

 Petals possess a waxed or starchy quality of stiffness which adds to 

 the especially long lasting period of each blossom. See page 24. HM 

 AIS, 1963; AM, 1965. 



WINE AND ROSES (Hall, '63) M. 34" Each $2.50 



A break much sought after by hybridzers has been a combination 

 of clear rose-pink and deep violet purple. Now here is the flower 

 which brings these colors out in truly splendid fashion— ruffled, 

 flaring, clean and sharp in contrast! The edging of rose-pink around 

 the velvety falls exactly matches the standards. There is a warm glow 

 at the heart of the flower and the beard is red-orange. Large blooms; 

 well branched. HM AIS, 1964; AM, 1966. See page 22. 



WINTER OLYMPICS (O. Brown, '63) EM. 38" Each $3.00 



Domed standards and extra wide falls with elegant ruffling are 

 features of this sensational new white Iris. It was the leader in the 

 "Judges' Choice" in 1964 and was likewise first among those which 

 won the HM Award of the AIS in 1965; AM, 1966. Dykes Medal, 1967.

 There is a flash of white on the falls just below the beard. Midseason 

 to late. Well branched. 



YES SIR (Noyd, '65) VL. 35" Each $3.50 



A deep yellow-orange self, probably the most intense shade of yellow 

 of any in this catalog. Very close to orange, it carries no apricot tone 

 and this makes it especially distinct. Very large, tall, late. HM AIS, 

 1966.
