DOGROSE (Insole, 1930) Each 50c; 3 for $1.25 



Deep rose-pink self, on very tall, wiry stems. We originally imported 

 this Iris from England several years ago and have constantly had diffi- 

 culty in keeping enough stock to offer. A very free bloomer, it is of 

 medium size but makes a most colorful and effective pink garden clump 

 and is a beautiful cut flower in the house. 



DOLLY VARDEN (Hall, 1950) Each $15.00 



A very large light pink with a slight overlay of salmon. The largest pink 

 of the flamingo series yet named from the Hall collection. It is a self 

 with no haft marldngs, good form and extra heavy substance and it takes 

 the sun surprisingly well. Flowers are carried on sturdy well branched 

 stems. 38 inches tall. Has proven a good parent for large pinks. Dolly 

 Varden has probably attracted as much attention as any Iris shown in 

 the Hall garden. (Seedling No. 46-60.) HM AI.S, 1950. 



ELLA CALLIS (H. Sass, 1942) Each $1.50 



For <heer brilliance here is an Iris that will constantly catch the eye of 

 evei-y visitor. It is a huge deep yellow with falls flushed orange. The 

 striking feature about it, however, is the infusion of orange-red on the 

 falls, sort of brushed on, particularly about the center. Not a plicata and 

 can hardly be called a blend. One of the most distinct of all Sass Irises. 



ELMOHR (Loomis, 1942) Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 



Winnt-r of the Dykes Medal in 1915. this red-violet seedling of Wm. 

 Mohr has acquired the greatest popularity in the shortest time of any 

 Iris ever introduced. One of the very largest of all Irises, the great 

 blooms are daintily ruffled, of a silky texture and remarkable substance. 

 The stems are well branched and at least 3 feet tall. Because it has 

 proven to be hardy everywhere and increases rapidly, the price has 

 reached a point where every genuine Iris connoisseur can and should 

 own it. HM AIS, 1942; AM, 1943. Shown in color on pages 15 and 28. 



El Pas 



DREAMCASTLE fCool^, 1943) Each $3.00 



An (in hiil pink self, the segments very broad and of bright clear tones. 

 The white beard, tinted lemon at the base, tends to emphasize the solid 

 pink effect. One of the most sought after varieties. See page 20. AM 

 AIS, 1948. 



EBONY ISLE (Deforest, 1949) Each $10.00 



Rich, smooth, well formed flowers of deepest purple, in some lights a 

 red-black. There are no markings of any kind to mar the sleek even rich- 

 ness of the heavy falls. The very dark thickly set beards are tipped burnt 

 orange. In spite of its darkness it gloivs with color. 33 to 36 inches, late. 

 HM AIS, 1950.
