BLUE RHYTHM (Whiting, 1945) Each $10.00 



Very large flowers of Cornflower-blue, softened by a silvery overtone. 

 The large standards are arched and domed, the broad falls are semi- 

 flaring with smoothly colored hafts. Grov/ing from 3 to 4 feet in 

 height, perfectly branched, we corisider it just about tops as a 

 blue Iris. HM AIS, 1945; AM, 1947. 



BLUE SHIMMER (J. Sass, 1942) Each $4.00 



An entirely different Plicata. Clean, sparkling white with an all- 

 over pattern of clear blue stippling. The blue seems to be peppered 

 on the white background in an even manner, rather than in the 

 familiar buttonhole-stitch style. The flowers are extremely large and 

 full. Certainly one of the most outstanding Irises of the past few 

 seasons. HM AIS, 1942; AM, 1944. See page 22. 



BLUE VALLEY (K. Smith, 1947) Each $25.00 



This new Iris, a seedling of Lake George crossed with Great Lakes, 

 has been the subject of much praise and comment. Very near to 

 true blue, ruffled and large in size, it possesses an unusual sparkling 

 sheen. Few plants. HM AIS, 1947. 



BRIGHT LIGHTS (Schreiner, 1946) Each $7.50 



Actually a yellow Plicata along the lines of Tiffanja, but with less of 

 the Plicata pattern and a more yellow and white contrast. The falls 

 carry a central patch or "blaze" of almost pure white. The stitchings 

 are soft brown. A very colorful clump. Shown on page 31. 



BRUNHILDE (Salbach, 1934) Each 50c; 3 for $1.25 



Very dark, uniform violet self, including an unusual blue beard. A 

 most regal Iris of great color intensity, with splendid stems and 

 widely flaring blossoms. 



BRYCE CANYON (Kleinsorge, 1944) Each $10.00 



A distinct and warm shade of henna-copper, self colored and so 

 named because of the similar colors found in the rock formations of 

 one of America's most famous tourist attractions. It has especially 

 broad hafts, large, rounded foils, and finely held standards. The 

 picture on the front cover is an excellent likeness. Bryce Canyon 

 achieved instant popularity. Awarded HM AIS in 1945; AM in 1947, 

 and is in sixth position in this year's list of 100 most popular Iris. A 

 good grower everywhere, hardy, 3 feet and over in height. 



BUFFAWN (Andrews, 1940) Each 75c 



If you are looking for an Iris of unusual coloring and with the most 

 brilliant tangerine beard, this is it. A soft pinkish buff self, hard to 

 describe, set off with a very red-orange beard. Nicely shaped, prolific 

 bloomer and attracts wide attention.
