The Kleinsorge and Hall introductions have 

 a reputation the world around. Out of the list of 

 100 Favorites for 1952, shown on page 47, an 

 astonishing total of 257c originated in the gar- 

 dens of these two plant wizards! Last year Dave 

 Hall climaxed his many honors by winning the 

 Dykes Medal for Cherie, plus one AM and three 

 HMs. Kleinsorge won three AMs and four HMs. 

 What greater evidence could one desire as proof 

 of quality and prudence and wisdom in selection? 

 We have introduced Doctor Kleinsorge' s Irises for 

 twenty years and those from Mr. Hall since 1 949. 

 Here are the latest additions to a long list of not- 

 able productions. 



HAPPY BIRTHDAY (Hall, 1952) 



Each $20.00 



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 

 bowled over everyone who saw it here last year as Hall's No. 40, 

 a 1949 seedling. Happy Birthday is not just a sumptuous flower 

 ... it has bold foliage, big heavy stalks, large rhizomes and in- 

 creases at a rapid rate. Height three feet.
