 climates. Few plants.

 Society meeting.

 times reaching over 5 feet, with many buds to the stalk. Deeper in 

 tone than Shining Waters and more hardy. In 1935 it won the 

 Dykes Medal and is a consistent flower show winner. 



SIERRA SNOW (Kleinsorge, 1939) Each $1.00 



A hardy white of pure, clean color; very attractive spreading form, 

 and with wavy edges on the falls. Over 40 inches toll, widely 

 branched. Very scarce.

A solid deep cream; even in tone, large in size and of leathery tex- 

 ture. Creamy Irises tie into the garden picture well and are admir- 

 ably used with the reds and Variegatas as well as with the blues and 

 purples. This is one of the best, hardy and free blooming.
