 Far from new, it still thrills all who see it. 



FUCHSIA (Hall, 1951) Each $12.00 



Deeply colored raspberry-pink, or "fuchsia ", as some have described it.

GARDEN FLAME (H. Sass, 1941) Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 



A very deep rose-mahogany, if you can imagine such a color. Called by 

 some judges rose-red, but it is nearer garnet, with a deep rose and brown 

 area about the center. It has no haft markings, making it one of the rich- 

 est and handsomest of all dark Irises. Large, with very broad falls, and 

 it blooms quite late. HM AIS, 1940 ; AM, 1943. 



GARDEN GLORY (Whiting, 1943) Each $2.00 



A pure self of rich Bordeaux-red; a seedling from Red Douglas crossed 

 with Garden Magic. This is one of the nearest to true red of any Iris 

 ever flowered in our gardens; pure, deep and rich, with no haft venation 

 whatsoever. Smoothly finished with deep bronze-gold beard. Height 33 

 inches. HM AIS, 1945 ; AM, 1947. 



GARDEN MAGIC (Grinter, 1936) Each 75c; 3 for $2.00 



A very late, very large, and especially velvety deep red self. After fifteen 

 years it continues to hold its own right up front among the best red 

 Irises. Many people will hardly believe it costs less than a dollar! Has 

 not increased fast and supply is usually short. HM AIS, 1937. See color 

 cut on page 29. 



GOLDBEATER (Kleinsorge, 1944) Each $1.00 



This is the oft-mentioned yellow of the AIS Bulletins, a solidly colored 

 chrome-yellow self that has invariably drawn praise from judges. It is 

 all yellow, deep and bright, without markings or blendings of any kind 

 and the buds themselves are like gobs of deep yellow paint. A good 

 grower, fast increaser, and wilt m.ake a glorious garden display. Large 

 flowers, excellent branching. HM AIS, 1945; AM, 1951. 



GOLDEN EAGLE (Hall, 1942) Each $1.00 



Brilliant light yellow, with a satiny sheen. One of the largest of all Irises, 

 it is clear, even yellow tihroughout, without a trace of amber or other 

 shadings. A rapid increaser and easy grower. Mr. Hall considers this 

 one of his best introductions. HM AIS, 1942. 



GOLDEN FLEECE (J. Sass, 1940) Each $1.00 



A big, lemon-colored flower with creamy falls edged gold. Beautifully 

 rulfled, huge in size, tall and a good grower. The illustration on page 24 

 is an excellent likeness. HM AIS, 1940; AM, 1942. 



GOLDEN HIND (Chadburn, 1934) Each 50c; 3 for $1.25 



The deepest golden yellow of all. Of medium size and height, with 

 horizontal falls, it is the standard used by most breeders in their efforts 

 for the perfect solid yellow. Very fast increaser and makes a startling 

 golden mass in the garden. HM AIS, 1937. 



GOLDEN MAJESTY (Salbach, 1938) Each 50c; 3 for $1.25 



For a deep yellow with all good habits we can recommend Golden Ma- 

 jesty above all others in this price field. A big flower with broad falls 

 and closed standards, does not fade in the sun and has proven reliable 

 everywhere. 40 inches tall. HM AIS, 1939; AM, 1940. See page 39. 



GOLDEN PLOVER (Deforest, 1950) Each $12.00 



Very smooth large self, of excellent flaring form, the color bright tan a 

 little deeper than golden tan. Quite late, on 38-inch stalks. HM AIS, 

 1951. 



GOLD RUFFLES (Muhlestine, 1947) Each $3.00

 the haft. Heavy texture, with vigorous, husky stems and bold foliage. The 

 originator says its produces remarkable seedlings. Over three feet tall. 

 HM AIS, 1948. 



GAY BORDER (Deforest, 1949) Each $5.00 



If you like plicatas and are looking for a new and distinct effect in this 

 line we think you wiU be pleasantly surprised by this one. The impres- 

 sion is that of a clean white flower bordered and stitched with red. 

 Actually the contrast is not that extreme, for the plicata markings are 

 really bright maroon-rose — a %-inch border on the falls! — and the wide 

 falls have a touch of gold at the haft. Large, tall and well branched. HM 

 AIS, 1949. 



GENERAL PATTON (Kleinsorge, 1947) Each $4.00 



A solid copper-brown self, liked by some critics as Dr. Kleinsorge's finest 

 production to date. Compared with Bryce Canyon, of which it) is a seed- 

 ling, it is much darker, richer, and appears brown rather than terra 

 cotta in tone. A metallic undertone makes it glisten in the sun. HAT AIS. 

 1947. 



GIBSON GIRL (Gibson, 1948) Each $2.00 



This plicata is on the order of Tiffany but with a cream rather than yel- 

 low ground color and a more definite rose-purple pattern. Not only is it 

 a most vivid affair but it has a habit of blooming from time to time 

 throughout the summer and fall! Height 30 inches, fast increaser. 



GLAD TIDINGS (Whiting, 1947) Each $2.00 



One of the most interesting of the new Irises — a unique wax-yellow, very 

 closely branched so that it somewhat resembles a huge Gladiolus spike. 

 Individual flowers are very large and ruffled, the substance amazingly 

 heavy. Lower blossoms are the first to open. 34 inches. 



GLORIOLE (Gage, 1933) Each 50c; 3 for $1.25 



An Iris of huge size with pale blue petals overlaid with frosty crystal- 

 like particles. Wonderfully well formed and a noble flower, waved and 

 rufiled. Sometimes called "ice-blue." Height 40 inches. HM AIS, 1933; 

 AM, 1935. 



GOLDEN RUSSET (Hall, 1946) Each $2.50 



The unusual feature of this flower is its great size. In line with the name, 

 it is golden russet in color — a self. The enormous flowers are 7 inches 

 high and 9 inches wide, with broad hafts. Grows to 40 inches on very 

 heavy stalks. Will evoke many "ohs" and "ahs" from visitors. HM AIS, 

 1947. 



GOLDEN SPIKE (Whiting, 1940) Each 50c; 3 for $1.25 



A very popular deep yellow with stunning rich orange beard. One of the 

 deepest colored of all the yellows, it does not fade, has several flowers 

 open at one time, and is both large and tall. HM AIS. 1940 ; AM, 1942. 



GOLDEN TREASURE (Schreiner, 1936) 



Each 50c; 3 for $1.25 



Solid deep cream, but with an outpouring of rich, golden orange all 

 about the central portion of the flower. Tall, perfectly branched, ver>' 

 floriferous, it will stand out in a planting of hundreds of varieties. HM 

 AIS, 1936; AM, 1938. See page 31. 



GOOD NEWS (Kleinsorge, 1946) Each $2.00 



Brilliant mustard-gold self. A much ruffled flower with immense wide 

 standards, nicely domed. Falls are exactly the same color, with narrow 

 band of copper shading near the outer edges. A sister seedling of 

 Chamois and Bryce Canyon, not quite as tall as either of these, but about 

 33 inches in height and a profuse bloomer. Illustrated in color on page 

 20. HM AIS, 1947. 



GRAND CANYON (Kleinsorge, 1941) Each 75c; 3 for $2.00 



An odd blend of rather deep tones of plum and copper, and gold. En- 

 tirely different from any Iris we have ever introduced, it is an Iris to be 

 admired at close range and is especially suited to bringing indoors and 

 associating with Oriental rugs. Attractively formed and delicately ruflBed. 

 About 40 inches tall, perfectly branched, and it flowers over a very long 

 season. Very large, it is accurately shown in color on page 29. HM AIS, 

 1943; AM, 1944.
