SAN ANTONE (Kleinsorge, 1947) Each $1.50 



Ilustrated on page 18. A deep tan or sand-brown self, imposing in size and 

 manner of growth, with extra broad falls and beautiful form. The immense 

 buds unfold into huge flowers perfectly spaced, many to the stem. Just enough 

 ruffling to lend grace. HM AIS, 1948. 



SARAH LEE SHIELDS (Graves, 1951) Each $6.00 



A pure white and ruffled seedling of the famous Lady Boscawen. There are 

 so many top-notch whites that we hesitate to add any additional ones, but this 

 one is so fine we just had to include it in our catalog this season. Closed 

 standards and wide flaring falls. Heavy gold beard. HM AIS, 1951. 



SAVAGE (Craig, 1949) Each $6.00 



Broadly flaring flower in a new and different shade of red ... a subtle blend- 

 ing of bronze and magenta. A real eye catcher with brilliant color hard to 

 describe. 34 inches tall. Few plants. HM AIS, 1951. 



SEA LARK (Muhlestein, 1946) Each $1.50; 3 for $4.00 



Soft violet-blue with a slaty cast, both standards and falls having a central 

 patch of purple shading. Different from any other Iris. Free blooming, nice- 

 ly formed, it grew to almost four feet on a two-year clump. HM AIS, 1947. 



Sunset Blaze 



ROSED ALE (Hall, 1952) Each $7.50 



Much ruffled salmon-pink blend, the falls held squarely horizontal. As 

 seedling No. 48-33 it has attracted much attention in the Hall garden and 

 we have been repeatedly urged to introduce it. A two-year clump is a 

 mass of bloom. Very late, about 30 inches in height. 



ROYAL SOVEREIGN (Stevens, 1951) Each $5.00 



Brilliant golden orange with a burnished overlay of metallic bronze. A 

 smoother and cleaner Iris than Rocket, with much the same color ef- 

 fect and it does not burn in the sun. Very large, on 38-inch stems. 

 HM AIS, 1953. 



RUBIENT (Whiting, 1942) Each 75c 



A taller, much redder Amigo. Standards are rich pansy-purp.le, very bril- 

 liant; the falls blackish red-purple with a neat edge the same tone as the 

 standards. Stems reached a height of over 40 inches in our garden. 

 See page 32. 



RUSSET WINGS (Wills, 1946) Each $1 .50; 3 for $4.00 



Smoothly blended big flowers of gold, copper and apricot — a russet col- 

 ored self. Form is faultless, with standards perfectly held and flaring 

 falls ruffled at the edges. Height 38 inches. HM AIS, 1946; AM, 1952. 

 See page 20. 



SABLE (Cook, 1938) Each 75c; 3 for $2.00 



Almost black; a uniform shade of deepest blue-black-violet, with blue 

 beard. Sable has every attribute that a fine Iris should possess; large size, 

 reasonably tall stalks, thick substance and a wonderfully lustrous sheen. 

 Everybody wants Sable. HM AIS, 1937; AM, 1940. See page 32. 



SALAIVIONIE (Cook, 1946) Each $1.50 



Exquisite light pink blend, richly yet delicately colored, combining the 

 best features of its parents, Majenica and Pink Reflection. A self in gar- 

 den effect, the flowers holding their color well in any weather. Stand- 

 ards light pinkish cinnamon; falls light congo-pink; flowers 5 inches in 

 diameter. A strong grower and free bloomer. HM AIS, 1946.
