CATHEDRAL BELLS (Wallace, 1953) Each $10.00 



A grand new pink with a hint of shrimp in its make-up. At the 

 AIS Convention in Boston it attracted much attention and 

 comment. Heavy substance in nicelv formed ruffled flowers on 

 42-inch stalks. Very fine! HM AIS, 1953. 



CHAMOIS (Kleinsorge, 1944) Each $1.50 



One of the largest Irises we have ever introduced, beautifully 

 formed, both standards and falls waved at the edges. It is pure 

 chamois in color, standards and falls identical, the beard yel- 

 low, tipped bronze. There are no veinings or markings of any 

 kind; the petals have a soft, satiny finish and glisten with 

 myriad frosty particles. We are certain that you will find this 

 Iris different from any other you have ever seen. HM AIS, 

 1945: AM, 1948. 



DOLLY VARDEN 



CHANTILLY (Hall, 1945) Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 



A ruffled orchid-pink. The edges of both standards and falls 

 are so heavily ruffled and frilled that they have the appearance 

 of being edged with lace of a lighter shade than the rest of the 

 flower. From the same line of breeding as the famous flamingo- 

 pinks. 36-inch stems, strong and well branched. HM AIS, 1945; 

 AM, 1947. See page 26. 



CHERIE (Hall, 1947) Each $3.50 



Most famous of all the new Hall "flamingo-pinks." A large, 

 ruffled, full bodied pink self of excellent form and substance 

 with a deep tangerine beard. The 34-inch stems are stout and 

 well branched: growth is vigorous and increase above average.

 Medal, 1951.

 of the falls, the beard white at the tips and vellow at the base.

 sought after varieties of the day. Illustrated on page 27. 



CLOTH OF GOLD (Whiting, 1945) Each 75c ; 3 for $2.00 



To say that this is another excellent deep yellow would attract 

 scant interest. We saw a great many wonderful seedlings and 

 new named varieties in Mrs. Whiting's Iowa Garden. One of 

 the best displays in the planting was a group of Cloth of Gold- 

 deep in color, perfectly formed, tall and stately. We highly 

 recommend it as one of the very finest vellows. HM AIS. 1947: 

 AM, 1950. 



CLOUD CAP (DeForest, 1950) Each $6.00 



This vigorous and husky growing new "blossom-pink" created 

 a great stir when it came into bloom just right for the Shreve- 

 port Convention in 1951. Probably the largest pink to date, 

 with very broad falls and an extra heavy bright tangerine 

 beard. Free blooming, on 3V9-foot stalks. HM AIS, 1951;

 and majestic Iris. The falls are slightly waved and ruffled, 

 broad and widely flaring. A fit companion to Azure Skies, 

 taller and more on the mauve side than blue. HM AIS. 1944. 



COLONEL PRIMROSE (DeForest, 1951) Each $5.00 



A self in sparkling lemon-chrome with very wide ruffled falls

 horizontal falls are capped with a lemon-vellow beard. A 

 different and brilliant yellow. 



COLOR CARNIVAL (DeForest, 1949) Each $2.50

 pinks. The ground color is a deep shade of pink in both 

 ->tandards and falls, with heavy markings of vivid purple on 

 %J* the falls. Beard is tangerine-red. Big flowers, very well formed.

 Setchell x Sable seedling which inherited the best qualities of 

 both parents. 38 inches tall. HM AIS, 1952. 



CONSTANT COMMENT (Hall, 1954) Each $12.00 



Pinkish apricot is probably the best way to describe the color 

 of this delicious looking affair. Or, you might call it a "peachy" 

 tint. At home with the pinks, and from pink breeding, it flaunts 

 i heavy red-orange beard that is as brilliant as a house afire. 

 Flowers are large and heavily substanced with ruffled and fineh 

 notched edges. Bold stalks and thrifty foliage, a husky grower. 

 36 inches tall. Seedling No. 49-32.
