Snow Flurry 



MATTERHORN (J. Sass, 1938) Each 75c; 3 for ^2.00 

 Pure white; large but delicate in appearance. Even the beard is white. 

 Three feet in height, with slender, well-branched stems and many 

 flowers widely spaced. Unmatched for purity of color and will please 

 anyone who is looking for the best white at a reasonable price. HM 

 AIS. 1938; AM, 1940. 



MELANIE (Hill, 1941 ) Each 75c; 3 for ^2.00 



This splendid new light pink comes to us as the finest introduction 

 of H. M. Hill, of Lafontaine, Kansas. Color is orchid-pink, close to 

 true pink, and there are as many as five open flowers at once on the 

 40-inch stalks. HM AIS, 1941. 



MELITZA (Nesmith, 1940) Each 75c; 3 for ^2.00 



Pale ivory-flesh, particularly effective in dull weather. Much of the 

 unusual color effect of this Iris is derived from the fiery tangerine- 

 orange beard. No Iris that we have ever grown has increased so rapidly 

 and it is at its best on a two-year clump. Height 36 to 40 inches. 

 Shown in color on page 21. HM AIS, 1940; AM, 1942. 



MELODIST (DeForest, 1946) Each ^7.50 



A henna-colored blend on gold ground. The salmon and rose tones 

 of Salar blended with the golden brown of Tobacco Road, its parents. 

 38 inches. HM AIS, 1947. 



MELLOWGLOW Whiting, 1942) Each ^5.00 



Deep peach or apricot, with a flush of pink. A highly ruffled and 

 perfectly formed Iris, with very broad and rounded standards and 

 falls. The beard is extra heavy and extends far down the fall. Mrs. 

 Whiting's most noteworthy introduction among many excellent ones, 

 and stock is very scarce. HM AIS, 1942. 



MEXICAN MAGIC (Whiting, 1947) Each ^5.00 



A brilliant medley of Spanish red and copper with a strong blaze 

 of blue in the falls. Beautifully full and rounded. Medium height 

 and not very well branched but a rich jewel in color and well worth 

 the price. 



MEXICO (Kleinsorge, 1943) Each ^2.00 



Gay and brilliant, a blended bicolor of buff golden standards and 

 broad plushlike falls of glowing red-brown, bordered and blended 

 golden buff. A perfectly gigantic flower, with the falls slightly crinkled 

 and waved at the edges. A blend rather than a Variegata. Very late. 

 HM AIS, 1944. Stock limited. See page 39.
