PATRICIAN (H. Hall, '53) Each $5.00 



Here is an Iris which lias forged into the forefront of recent novel- 

 ties, and with good reason. Standards are pure white, lightly flushed 

 yellow at the base. The falls are wide and flaring, also white, but 

 with a heavv overlay of gold entirely covering the hafts. Exception- 

 ally large, evenly balanced. HM AIS, 1953; AM, 1958. 36 inches in 

 height. See page 7. 



PINK PLUME (Schreiner, '51) Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 



A self colored orchid-pink, large, lighter and more pink than Dream- 

 castle, which it somewhat resembles. Because of its clear color and 

 extra "carrying power," we think it is one of the best introductions 

 of the past few seasons. Height 3 feet. HM AIS, 1952; AM, 1954. 

 See page 36. 



PEACH BROCADE (Hall, '55) Each $3.50 



Clear golden tan self, the falls flaring and slightly waved. Effect is 

 bright old gold. Grows vigorously and makes a beautiful clump of 

 rich color. 34 inches. 



PHOEBUS APOLLO (White, '54) Each $10.00 



One of the deepest, brightest and richest of the yellows. Said to con- 

 tain some onco blood but neither blossom nor plant growth indicates 

 this. The coloring is intense and clear, the flowers ruffled and semi- 

 flaring. A real beauty! 38-inch stems. HM AIS, 1955. 



PIERRE MENARD (Fought, '48) Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 



Finest of the new medium toned blues. The introducer calls 

 it a hyacinth-blue, with some of the fine netting in slightly 

 deeper shade that distinguishes Great Lakes. Beard is canary- 

 yellow. Very flaring in form, large, with broad segments, 36 

 to 40 inches tall. A very, very late Iris. HM AIS. 1948; AM, 

 1950. See page 38. 



PINK BOUNTIFUL (Cook, '49) Each 75c 



Selected as the largest and best of all the orchid-pinks raised 

 by Paul Cook. Large, perfectly formed flowers with broad 

 petals, smooth satiny texture and very heavy substance. Husky 

 in growth and extremely floriferous, 38 to 40 inches tall. A 

 very beautiful Iris! HM AIS, 1951. Pictured on page 38. 



PINK BOUQUET (Hall, '53) Each $2.50 



Deep baby-ribbon-pink with deep orange beard. Produces lots of 

 flowers and provides a foamy mound of soft but definite pink. Shown 

 in color on page 12. 



PINK CAMEO (Fay, '46) 



Each 75c; 3 for $2.00 



One of the new series of "flamingo" pinks— a true pink devoid of 

 violet influence— the kind of pink Iris we have all been wishing to 

 see. Color is described as pale cameo-pink, a self, with a startling 

 beard, like a tongue of flame on the hafts. An Iris of good size, 3 

 feet in height. HM AIS, 1946; AM. 1948. See page 30. 



PINK CHIMES (Hall, '57) Each $6.00 



This might be termed a "refined" Pink Sensation. It is about the 

 same size and has the same characteristics as that popular variety 

 but is deeper in color, much smoother in finish and has been noted 

 by some as the "pinkest" Hall Iris we have grown thus far. The rich 

 pink falls carry a smooth overlay of old gold near the base of the 

 standards. There is no veining and the beard is fiery tangerine. 

 Prolific in growth and very free blooming with large flowers. 34 

 inches. HM AIS, 1957. 



PINK FORMAL (Muhlestein, '49) Each $1 .00; 3 for $2.50 



Very large, wide petaled deep pink on the salmon side with a deep 

 red-tangerine beard. The flowers have a thickness of petal rarely 

 found in pinks and it produces excellent seedlings. HM AIS. 1949; 

 AM. 1951.
