EXTRAVAGANZA (Douglas, 1944) Each $1.00 



Almost white standards shaded cream at the base, the falls a medley of 

 copper, red-lavender and deep violet, with a violet flush down the 

 center. On the order of Wabash, but is more of a blend especially in 

 the falls. One of the most talked about new things. HM AIS, 1944; 

 AM, 1947. See page 37. 



FALL DAYS (K. Smith, 1947) Each $2.00 



Glowing flower in autumn colors of copper and red. Standards rose 

 and gold flushed bronze; falls rose-brown with chestnut-brown base 

 and velvety finish. Five by five inches in size, over 40 inches tall and 

 with many branching stems. A colorful mass of autumn-red in the 

 garden. HM AIS, 1947. 



FANTASY (Hall, 1947) Each $3.50 



A lovely rose and orchid-toned pink, distinctive and quite different in 

 color from the flamingo-pinks. The coloring is smooth and luscious, 

 more vivid than most in this series. Beard is tangerine-red. Beautiful 

 branching, above average size, stout 30-inch stems. HM AIS, 1947; 

 AM, 1949. 



FIRECRACKER (Hall, 1943) Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 



A glowing bright burgundy-red plicata, with yellow trim. Well named, 

 it is one of the flashiest things in any Iris collection. The fairly large 

 flowers have good substance and are carried on stout 32-inch stems. 

 HM AIS, 1934. Pictured on page 27. 



FIRE DANCE (Fay, 1947) Each $2.00 



A much deeper, richer and taller Firecracker. Fire Dance is a bur- 

 gundy-red plicata, both standards and falls heavily marked all over 

 with dark wine-red, the ground color buff. Flowers are round and full, 

 the falls flaring. Undoubtedly the best in its class and it commands 

 the attention of every visitor. A prolific bloomer, 40 inches tall. 

 HM AIS, 1947. Shown on page 45. 



FLORADORA (Hall, 1947) Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 



A medium toned flamingo-pink, of good form and substance on well 

 branched, 30-inch stems. The blooms are of medium size with a 

 geranium-red beard. Size of flower, foliage and stem are in good 

 balance. A self with no haft markings. 



FORT TICONDEROGA (K. Smith, 1948) Each $2.50 



A glowing red that seems to spit fire from every corner of its petals. 

 Standards are between orange and burnt sienna and the falls a very 

 velvety bright garnet-red. Haft is clean and sports a very brilliant 

 deep orange beard. 



FRANCES KENT (Deforest, 1951) Each $7.50 



The standards are chartreuse-cream with a flush of pink, the falls 

 lighter with a pinkish orange beard. Absolutely outstanding and 

 different. This is surely one of DeForest's best. Falls are almost 

 horizontal and standards are well closed. Height 3 feet. HM AIS, 1952; 

 AM, 1954. 



FUCHSIA (Hall, 1951) Each $5.00 



Deeply colored raspberry-pink, or "fuchsia," as some have described 

 it. The beard is almost red and very thick. A self, with somewhat 

 flaring falls slightly waved at the margins. Rich and vivid, medium 

 height. Parentage is Tally-Ho x Fantasy. (Seedling No. 46-35). 

 HM AIS, 1953. 



GALA FINALE (DeForest, 1950) Each $3.50 



Strong, deep yellow, heavily overlaid Indian red and appears from a 

 distance to be red. A fancy and very colorful plicata with great garden 

 value. 36 inches tall. 



GARDEN FLAME (H. Sass, 1941) Each 75c; 3 for $2.00 



A very deep rose-mahogany, if you can imagine such a color. Called 

 by some judges rose-red, but it is nearer garnet, with a deep rose and 

 brown area about the center. It has no haft markings, making it one 

 of the richest and handsomest of all dark Irises. Large, with very 

 broad falls, and it blooms quite late. HM AIS, 1940; AM, 1943.
