ILLUSTRIOUS (Hall, '53) Each $1.50; 3 for $4.00 



Our latest blue Iris, coming into flower with such late varieties as Ex- 

 travaganza and Garden Glory. Blossoms are of very large size, uniform 

 rich deep blue— almost indigo— and a clump is a wonderful sight. The 

 smooth haft is brownish and the beard is inconspicuous. Widely branch- 

 ed, three feet tall. 



IMMORTAL HOUR (Fofhergill, '59) Each $15.00 



Here is a grand and new white from England, about as near perfection 

 as any Iris could be. Form and balance leave nothing to be desired and 

 the strong stalks are well branched with many buds. A winner of many 

 British awards, it was featured on the cover of the new AIS book, 

 "Garden Irises". 



INCA CHIEF (Mitsch, '52) Each $1 .50 



Burnished golden bronze, evenly colored throughout. The ruffled flow- 

 ers, with very broad hafts, are of immense size and are produced on 

 heavy stalks. This is one of the most talked about of all recent novelties. 

 Height about 3 feet. HM AIS, 1952; AM, 1954. See page 19. 



INDIANA NIGHT (Cook, '42) Each 75c; 3 for $2.00 



Lustrous, deep, richest velvety purple, almost black. The finest and most 

 satisfying dark Iris of a long series of seedlings from the famous Sable. 

 38-inch stems, well branched, with every good quality desired in an Iris. 

 Midsesaon and long lasting. HM AIS, 1942; AM, 1944. See page 25. 



INDIGLOW (Schortman, '59) Each $25.00 



Deepest violet-blue, velvety and brilliant, gigantic in size and faultless in 

 form. What more can one ask? Placement on the heavy stalks is ideal 

 and they will reach a height of 40 inches. Few plants available. HM 

 AIS, 1959. 



IRMA MELROSE (DeForesf, '56) Each $5.00 



Extra large lemon-yellow with faint plicata markings near the beard 

 and throat. Although of unusual size the ruffled flowers are graceful and 

 long lasting in rain or sun. Stems are very tall but strong and well 

 branched. 38-40 inches. HM AIS, 1956. 



JANE PHILLIPS (Graves, '50) Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 



A new light blue that is deeper in color than Helen McGregor, of which 

 it is a seedling. It resembles its famous parent in form and size but 

 because it carries more color it is distinct and worthy in its own right. 

 We have seen no Iris which appears nearer true blue. HM AIS, 1950; 

 AM, 1952. See page 22. 



JUNE BRIDE (Hall, '52) Each 75c ; 3 for $2.00 



The picture on page 29 is not quite right for this luscious, mouth- 

 watering, deep apricot-pink with the heavy geranium-red beard. It is 

 much more pink and less buff than the color plate indicates. Such 

 delectable shades are associated with Tuberous Begonias and Gladioli. 

 Large flower, horizontal falls, 30 inches in height. HM AIS, 1952. 



JUNE MEREDITH (Muhlestein, '54) Each $3.50 



A complete self of rich, deep pink. In our opinion it is the best pink 

 which this well known hybridizer has produced. Color is uniform in 

 both standards and falls; vivid and alive. Large flowers on 36-inch stems. 

 HM AIS, 1954; AM, 1956. Runner-up for the Dykes Medal in 1958. 

 Shown on page 55. 



JUNE SUNLIGHT (McCormick, '53) Each $1.50; 3 for $4.00 



Another brand new solid golden yellow, quite late, which will crowd 

 any of the very best for first place. The large, smooth flowers have no 

 haft markings. HM AIS, 1953. 



KARACHI (Schreiner, '58) Each $10.00 



Newest of the deep burgundy wine-on-white plicatas, darker, richer and 

 redder than Port Wine or Bazaar. In fact, this one is far more red than 

 anything else and the only white in it appears as a patch in the center 

 area of the broad falls. Large, perfectly formed, on 3-foot stems. HM 

 AIS, 1958. 



KAZAK (Craig, '57) Each $5.00 



A huge full yellow plicata with border of Kazak or near maroon. It's 

 the largest, fullest, finest and brightest flower of this color pattern. The 

 wide branched stem is perfect, the flowering period exceptionally long 

 and heavy; plant vigor is ideal. Height 36 inches. 



KIKI (Graves, '51) Each $3.50 



From a cross of Helen McGregor and Great Lakes came this marvelous 

 clear blue of spreading form. Rarely seen but sure to please those look- 

 ing for clean sparkling color. 38 inches. HM AIS, 1953.
