OLA KALA (J. Sass, 1943) Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 



Just now we have an abundance of fine deep yellow Irises, but here is 

 one that perhaps outdoes all the others for depth of color and in 

 addition it is heavily ruffled. Medium large flowers on nicely brctnched 

 36-inch stalks. So yellow it is almost on the orange side. HM AIS, 1943 ; 

 AM, 1945; Dykes Medal, 1948. See page 25. 



PACEMAKER (Lapham, 1950) Each $iaOO 



Possibly the best red Iris of all. Greig Lapham, the originator, has spent 

 a score of years breeding reds and this is the finest one we have ever 

 grown. The color is uniform in standards and falls, without veins on the 

 haft ; a warm red tone, on the orange rather than the purple or wine 

 side. The rich beard is bronzy gold. 36 inches in height. HM AIS, 1950. 



OLD PARCHMENT (Kleinsorge, 1939) 



Each 50c; 3 for $1.25 



Light creamy tan, with golden buff overlay; a most unusual color 

 break and a distinctly beautiful new Iris. Standards are domed and 

 closed; falls wide and rather tailored in appearance. A perfectly huge 

 bloom, heavy substance, and the longest lasting variety in our garden. 

 HM AIS, 1940; AM, 1941. See page 31. 



OPAL CLOUD (Kleinsorge, 1949) Each $3.00 



A huge blend of pinkish opalescent tints. Not a pink Iris, but a harmony 

 of pearl and opal and soft rose with coppery shading near the border of 

 the falls. This copper suffusion is present near the hafts and the crests 

 are copper colored. The over-all effect is a sort of terra-cotta-pink with 

 violet suffusions. Cascade Splendor crossed with Daybreak. 42 inches 

 tall and very well branched. 



ORANGEMAN (Waters, 1946) Each $2.50 



A lovely huge orange self with a touch of deeper orange at the haft. The 

 flower has a wonderfully smooth, well groomed look; the coloring is 

 even and rich. The tall stems, 40 inches high, are very well branched. 

 An outstanding Iris in a much sought after color. HM AIS, 1947. 



ORELIO (Deforest, 1947) Each $3.00 



Deep crimson-brown, more red than brown. Obtained from Casa Morena 

 crossed vnth Garden Flame, which will convey some idea as to the color 

 of this rich new Iris. It is large, tall and well branched. HM AIS, 1948. 



ORMOHR (Kleinsorge, 1937) Each 50c; 3 for $1.25 



One of the largest Irises in existence, and especially noteworthy because 

 it is a seedling of Wm. Mohr. It reaches 40 inches in height, with several 

 great blooms on well-branched stalks. The color is pale lilac with a 

 silvery cast, veined violet. Darker when first opening and in dull weather. 

 HM AIS, 1939; AM, 1940. 



PAILLASSE fCoyeux, 1936) Each 50c; 3 for $1.25 



A French introduction resembling in some ways the popular Marquita, 

 but with more cinnamon-rose color in the falls and considerable of this 

 tint blended in the standards. The ground color is deep cream. A really 

 different Iris and a good grower and free bloomer; seldom seen. 



PALE DAWN (Fay, 1947) Each $2.50 



Palest light blue, a bit bluer than white. Large and full petaled, the 

 wide falls flaring broadly on well branched 40-inch stalks. It does not 

 fade and produces an abundance of flowers. 



PALE PRIMROSE (Whiting, 1946) Each $1.00 



A late, cool primrose-yellow with a touch of wax-yellow at the haft. 

 Of an attractive and useful color, the form of this Iris is its real distinc- 

 tive feature. It is oval, with standards closed and swirled at the top; 

 the falls are long but so wide they nearly touch each other, the effect 

 is of a huge yellow rosebud. Very late, high branched and tall — most 

 effective in back of a planting. HM AIS, 1950. See page 38. 



PATRICE (Deforest, 1945) Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 



New white plicata which we like very much and which we regard as dif- 

 ferent from the many others listed. Standards light cream flushed pale rosy 

 lavender; falls sparkling white brushed bright gold across the haft which 

 is speckled rose-brown. Refined, clean and very brilliant. Tall and larg«, 

 with all good points. HM AIS, 1946. See page 28. 



PEACHBLOW (H. Sass, 1943) Each 75c; 3 for $2.00 



A pinkish plicata with yellow ground, Ulustrated perfectly in color plate. 

 This Iris has the remarkable faculty of "carrying power" and its pink- 

 iness accents any spot where it is planted. Oval-shaped blooms on tall 

 stems, nicely branched. Rapid increaser. See color plate on page 25.
