 brightly glowing Burgundy red falls of great vwdth and velvety 

 finish. Hafts are solidly colored and are set with a heavy, bright

CANDLE MAGIC (Deforest, '61) Each $1.50 



Wide standards of pink-tinted tan; the falls are cream with bright 

 tan-gold hafts. A creamy version of the Dawn Crest and Dawn Star 

 lusciousness might be an apt description. Tall and large. See

CAPE TOWN (Gaulter, '67) Each $15.00 



This subtle interfusion of delicate beige and rose-lilac results from 

 a cross of Claudia Rene and Glittering Amber, as does the new 

 Baccarat. However, there is no color similarity' in the two. The first 

 is flamboyant and lively; this one is less exciting, more tranquil, 

 but equally beautiful and appealing. Standards and falls are about 

 the same shade of mauve, but the contrasting brown-purple hafts 

 provide a sharp contrast. Beard is deep orange. Very wide falls and 

 abundant ruffling enhance its all 'round high qualit>'. Huge in 

 size; 38 inches in height. See above. 



CAPTAIN GALLANT (Schmelzer, '59) Each $2.00 



Probably the finest red to date. The introducer calls it "the red Iris 

 that is red throughout, with no purple influence and no haft mark- 

 ings." Huge in size and holds its color in heat or wind. HM AIS, 

 1959; AM, 1961. See page 49. 



CARMELA (Schreiner, '55) Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50

 tions, selected as one of the "5 Iris of the Year" for 1961. Color is a 

 blend of honey and caramel. Height 38 inches; mid-season bloom. 

 HM AIS, 1955; AM, 1958.
