Spun Gold 



PROSPECTOR (Kleinsorge, 1950) Each ^12.00 



Shown on the back cover. Deepest golden yellow . . . almost an 

 orange . . . with the falls carrying a bold patch of clean ivory- 

 white. For combined depth of color and brilliance at the same time 

 PROSPECTOR has no equal amongst the yellows. The amply large 

 flowers are produced abundantly; they are well formed with widely 

 flaring falls and closed standards. Height about 34 to 36 inches. 

 Of the many first rate yellow Iris available these days there are none 

 quite like this one. 



RADIANT (Salbach, 1936) Each 50c; 3 for ^1.25 



Standards of burnished golden bronze; falls glowing copper-red; one 

 of the most strikingly brilliant Iris obtainable. Of better than average 

 size, well branched. Produces an immense quantity of bloom and in- 

 creases rapidly. HM AIS, 1938. 



RADIATION (Hall, 1948) Each ^10.00 



A pleasing tone of orchid-pink, the standards and falls the same color, 

 with a remarkable deep tangerine beard and burnt-orange glow at 

 the heart. Standards of the large flowers are domed, the falls semi- 

 flaring and very wide. A more intensely colored flower than Cherie or 

 Heritage it produces a most vivid pink garden picture. Heavy sub- 

 stance and sturdy grovrth on 32-inch well branched stalks. HM AIS, 

 1948; AM. 1950. Shown in color on page 37. 



RAJAH BROOKE (Norton, 1945) Each ^1.35; 3 for ^3.50 



Rich topaz-yellow standards shot with bronze; the falls deep pigeon- 

 blood-red. Haft is solidly colored, clear into the throat, giving the 

 flower an extra rich effect. Not brilliant and garish. Rajah Brooke is 

 an Iris in luxurious, subdued hues remindful of an Oriental rug. 

 HM AIS, 1946. In color on page 19. 



RANGER (Kleinsorge, 1943) Each ^1.50; 3 for ^4.00 



Dark but very bright almost true crimson-red. A decided self, vnth 

 long, cone-shaped, closed standards and wide falls of glossy velvet. 

 Bronze-orange beard on a brownish toned haft, with very little vena- 

 tion. One of the last to bloom, a sure producer of flowers and lots 

 of them, with straight stems and fine branching. Very large, 36 inches 

 tall. HM AIS, 1944; AM, 1946. Shown on page 18.
