TRULY YOURS (Fay, 1949) Each .^20.00 



The heart of this spectacular creation is bright yellow, shading off to 

 almost white at the top of the standards and the bottom of the falls. 

 The entire flower is ruffled and edged in lace, like ChantUly. Un- 

 opened buds are yellow, because the undersides of the falls are yellow 

 although faced white on top! Gigantic in size, 38 inches tall; very 

 late. HM AIS, 1949. 



TWILIGHT SKY (Fay, 1949) Each ^7.50 



A pink of exceptional form and substance with pink buds and red 

 beard. Parentage is Pink Cameo x Floradora. Mr. Fay considers this 

 the best out of hundreds of seedlings raised for clear pinks. It is of 

 lovely form and tailored appearance, a soft clean clear pink with red 

 tinged beard. 35 inches tall. HM AIS, 1950. 



VATICAN PURPLE (Whiting, 1943) Each ^2.00 



Of bold stature and splendid form, this is one of the most striking 

 newcomers in an old color class that welcomes such improvements. 

 Deep but bright blue-purple, silky in finish but heavy in texture, 

 without haft markings. It has wide-spreading falls and 3-foot stems. 

 A good picture of it on page 20. HM AIS, 1943. 



VOODOO (Kleinsorge, 1948) Each ^3.50 



A very dark combination of rich chocolate-brown standards and black- 

 ish red-brown falls, the entire flower crimped and ruffled at the edges. 

 The broad falls are held stiffly horizontal and the wide standards 

 appear close together and erect. Average size, medium height. A very 

 rich piece of color and an abundant bloomer. It is a sister seedling 

 of Pretty Quadroon. 



WABASH (Williamson, 1937) Each 50c; 3 for ^1.25 



Pure white standards and rich velvety deep violet falls bordered white 

 — the most striking amoena of all. Very tall, branched above the 

 middle of the stalk with a profusion of large, slightly ruffled bloesoms. 

 The color plate on page 33 shows this popular Iris in perfect detail. 

 HM AIS. 1937; AM, 1938. Awarded the Dykes Medal in 1940. 



WHITE GODDESS (Nesmith, 1936) Each 50c; 3 for ^L25 

 Large glistening white with domed standards. Both the standards and 

 falls are slightly ruffled, the latter arched and flaring. 40 inches tall, 

 a vigorous grower. HM AIS, 1936. 



VICE-REGAL (Miles, 1946) Each ^L50; 3 for ^00 



Here is a brand new Iris from Canada, one of the most richly colored 

 seedlings we have ever grown. The standards and falls are almost 

 identical in color, but the velvet of the latter makes them appear 

 slightly deeper. Scarcely any haft marking — a supreme shade of 

 glowing bronzy red-purple with bronze beard. 33 inches tall. Shown 

 on page 18. HM AIS, 1947. 



WINTER CARNIVAL (Schreiner, 1941 ) 



Each ^1.00; 3 for ^2.50 



A fine hardy white, bred in Minnesota. Widely flaring falls, snow- 

 white in color, the throat heavily tinted gold. Branching is excellent 

 and the stout stems hold the big blooms well aloft. This is surely one 

 of our best whites. HM AIS, 1942. See page 41. 



WM. MOHR (Mohr, 1925) Each 40c; 3 for ^1.00 



The entire bloom is a self of pale rosy lilac closely netted and veined 

 deep violet, producing a weird, yet very lovely effect. A mammoth 

 flower of medium height, with small foliage. Does better if divided 

 and transplanted at least every other year. Makes very small rhizomes 

 always. 



ZANTHA (Fay, 1947) Each ^6.00 



A very large deep yeUow self, clear and clean, with a rich yellow 

 beard and no haft marking. Perfection in form, tailored and flaring, 

 the 3-foot stems widely branched. This Iris won the President's Cup 

 in 1947. HM AIS, 1947.
