TOKEN (Hall, 1939) Each 75c; 3 for $2.00 



Standards old gold flushed rose; falls rosy brown-red, with very little 

 haft venation. Carries much of the salmony orange effect of the old 

 variety Mary Geddes, but with less venation. Does not fade and is a 

 husky grower, 38 inches tali, with blooms having a 7-inch spread. 



TREASURE ISLAND (Kleinsorge, 1937) Each 50c; 3 for $1.25 



A truly gigantic flower of bright clear yellow, slightly lighter in the 

 center of the falls. Tall stems, a fast increaser and easy grower. We 

 hove sold more rhizomes of Treasure Island than of any Iris we have 

 ever introduced. You will not be disappointed in this splendid yellow. 

 AM AIS, 1945. 



TREVA (Deforest, 1945) Each $7.50 



A new glistening golden apricot self. With very wide standards and 

 falls, and flaring form, it has that unusual quality of frostiness which 

 distinguishes Gloriole. This one, however, has what might be termed 

 golden frost! HM AIS, 1946. 



VATICAN PURPLE (Whiting, 1943) Each $4.00 



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 three-foot 

 stems. HM AIS, 1943. 



VICE-REGAL (Miles, 1946) Each $4.00 



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

 seedlings we have ever grown. The standards and falls ore 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 25. HM AIS, 1947. 



VISION OF MERZA (DeForest, 1944) Each $3.00 



Rose-brown on a cream ground, of heavy marbled rather than a 

 stitched effect. This is not only an unusual and bizarre color pat- 

 tern, but the flower is well shaped with wide segments and gigantic 

 in size; 40 inches tall. 



WABASH (Williamson, 1937) Each 75c; 3 for $2.00 



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 

 blossoms. The color plate on page 14 shows this popular Iris in per- 

 fect detail. HM AIS, 1937; AM, 1938. Awarded the Dykes Medal 

 in 1940. 



WASATCH (Thorup, 1935) Each 40c; 3 for $1.00 



Huge Plicata of stunning size, clean white with blue stitching in the 

 buttonhole manner. Heavy stalks and very broad foliage, medium in 

 height, blooming among the first of the tall bearded varieties. 



WEST POINT (Nicholls, 1938) Each 75c; 3 for $2.00 



Standards bright indigo-blue, very brood and well held; falls intense 

 indigo-blue with a brownish cast at the haft. The beard is wide and 

 extra heavy, like the epaulets on a blue uniform. A magnificent Iris. 

 Very late. HM AIS, 1940. 



WHITE CITY (Murrell, 1939) Each $1.50 



Dykes Medal Winner in England in 1940. An immense flower of 

 blue-white, with deeper blue flush at the heart. A stalwart grower, 

 the great flowers possessing a silken finish and ice cold effect. 

 AM AIS, 1945. 



WHITE WEDGEWOOD (Grant, 1943) Each $7.00 



A large porcelain-white with blue at the base of the white beard, 

 making the beard appear quite blue. Something new in whites, along 

 the line of And Thou and White City. Almost 4 feet in height, quite 

 early. HM AIS, 1943; AM, 1945. 



WINSTON CHURCHILL (Stevens, 1944) Each $15.00 



A striking new red Iris. Deep but bright crimson, the standards ex- 

 hibiting a copper glow while the falls are very dark but gleaming 

 maroon. Heavy gold beard. From New Zealand. 



WINTER CARNIVAL (Schreiner, 1941) Each $1.50; 3 for $4.00 



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 28. 



WM. MOHR (Mohr, 1925) Each 35c; 3 for 90c 



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

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

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

 and transplanted at least every other year. 



WORTHINGTON (Cook, 1943) Each $3.50 



Harmonious bicolor of great size and pleasing rosy red effect, the 

 color particularly clear and bright. Of strong growth, three feet in 

 height. Brighter than the old but popular Ethel Peckham, with 

 cleaner haft ond much larger blossoms.
