IvODESTAR 



A variegata with brightest yellow standards, and 

 very dark falls. It made a fine showing in Mr. Wis- 

 ter's garden last Jnn(% and I was pleased to find a 

 beautiful elump in "Sir. Wayman's display on Long 

 Island. Of such perfection in every way that I felt I 

 eould not do without it, even though we have two 

 richly colored irises of this tyjie in Crown Prince 

 and Beau Sabreur. Lodestar- is (luite diffeii-nt from 

 either of these. 



Each $2.00 



Los Angeles 



Sister seedling of the wonderful plicata San Fran- 

 cisco. A giant in size, snowy white, with faint edg- 

 ings of lavender-blue. Splendid stalks were on ex- 

 liibit in tlie St. Paul iris siiow, and it was growing 

 and blooming lustily in the Sehreiner garden in that 

 city, indicating that it is really quite hardy wlien 

 once acclimated. 



Each $2.00; three for $4.50 



Mary Geddes 



A genuine novelty. "Indeed, it is one of the most 

 stunning in color I have seen this year — or any year. 

 It was so lovely we returned to it several times, going 

 the following day to see it in its home garden, 

 where it stood out among hnndi-eds of seedlings. It 

 is tall, the bloom well placed on a nice stalk. A self 

 color of light ochraeeous salmon, which should in- 

 trigue one planning for color in the garden." — ^Irs. 

 Hires, in A. I. S. Bldletin for July. 1980. A seedling 

 I'aiscd l)y T. A. Washington of Nashville, and intro- 

 duced by ]\Irs. Thos. Nesmitli of Lowell, Mass. 



Each $17.50 



Nene 



Has the reputation of being the world's largest 

 iris, and it certainly is a genuine .stunner. The flow- 

 ers are of staggering size, up to nine inches in height, 

 and are produced on stems which almost remind one 

 of corn stalks. In addition to its size, Nene is really 

 a beautiful iris, with lilac standards and falls of rich 

 wine-red, darker at the haft. 



Each $6.00 ; three for $15.00 



NUSKU 



Lovely old rose and yellow blend, a very luminous 

 flower, tall and stately. Introduced by j\Irs. Thos. 

 Nesmith of Ijowell, IMass., and my favorite of her 

 seedlings. Flowers of lai'ge size, ;ibout tlii'ee feet in 

 height. 



Each $4.00; three for $9.00 



NURMAHAL 



One of tlie two magnificent seedlings introduced 

 by Col. Nicholls of Ithaca, N. Y., last sununer. Stand- 

 ards deep brown, with a hint of violet, very large, 

 circular, and domed. Falls very dx-e]'> black-brown 

 with a red undertone. Yellow beard. Of the Grace 

 Sturtevant type, l)ut a lai'ger flower with better sub- 

 stance and much finer standards. A wonderful nmv 

 iris that is sui'e to atti'act in.stant attcntio]]. 



Each $12.00 



Red Dominion 



The much-heralded garnet-red Dominion from 

 Dr. Ayres, introduced last year by Quality Gardens. 

 I thrilled at tlie sight of this iris two years ago when 

 I saw it growing in the gar'den of the originato)-, and 

 have always spoken highly of it since that time. 

 While the standards are a shade lighter than the 

 falls, it is practically a self in effect — a piece of I'ich 

 !•(■(] vehcl. The buds are particularly striking. 



Each $20.00 



Red Robe 



An enormous l)loom of perfect shape and habit, 

 considered by Col. Nicholls as the finest iris he has 

 ever turned out. Standards deeji petunia-violet, 

 domed, FaUs deep red-violet, uniformly colored to 

 the edge. Yellow beard. The flower is of s])lendid 

 rounded shape, a brilliant, glowing iris that lights 

 lip in the garden like a huge ruby. This iris sold at 

 siglil w Immi in bloom, and as a result was uiii)btain- 

 ;iltle l.-iler in llie season last summer. 



Each $20.00 



ROSAKURA 



A Williamson introduction of high merit, the 

 nanu^ of which 1 understand means "Rising Sun". 

 Like our old and true friend. Morning Splendor, this 

 new iris needs to lie seen with the sun l)eliind it to be 

 at its best. Then the rosy-purple standards and the 

 rich red-purple falls take on a magnificence and 

 splendor seldom found in any iris. l\Irs. Hires, noted 

 iris critic, has remarked that Rosakura is among Wil- 

 liamson's masterpieces and lier favorite of his 19:50 

 introductions. 



Each $5.00 ; three for $12.00 



Sachem 



A glorified King Tut, grown by Dr. Loomis. Glor- 

 ious in richest tones of red-brown, of heavy velvety 

 texture. This, together with Erebian, was regarded 

 as my choice of all the seedlings which Dr. Loomis 

 had growing on trial at ^Irs. Pattison's garden in 

 1930. 



Each $18.50 



Sensation 



A clear and crisp self of cornflower blue, perfect 

 in every way. Sensation was awarded the silver cup 

 for the most outstanding flower in the Boston iris 

 show last June. It has no peer among the blue selfs. 



Each $2.50 



Sunlight 



A most luminous, tall yellow from .Miss Sturte- 

 vant, large in size, and of extra good garden effect. 

 The color is quite light, between cream and straw, 

 with a beard of fiery orange-red. Free blooming and 

 a tremendous increaser. This iris has been awarded 

 an Honorable IMention by the American Iris Society 

 when exhibited as a seedling. 



Each $7.50; three for $18.00; ten, $50.00
