JUNGLE FIRES (Schreiner, '60) EM. 36" Each $1 .50; 3 for $4.00 



A smooth, evenly colored new red self, with jaunty, flaring form and 

 silken sheen. A "coals-of-fire" shade of red, rather than the red effect 

 derived from the purple or garnet side of the color spectrum. Bronze 

 yellow beard. Free blooming, large size. HM AIS, 1960; AM, 1964. 



KAHILI (Schreiner, '61) ML. 36" Each $2.00 



A big bright, contrasty variegata. Falls are deep, velvety maroon- 

 brown; the standards are luminous pale gold deepening toward the 

 edges. Style arms are stained with crimson and the beard is rich 

 yellow. HM AIS, 1962. 



KARACHI (Schreiner, '58) ML. 35" Each $2.00 



Newest, deep burgjundy, wine-on-white plicata, darker and redder 

 than Port Wine or Bazaar. In fact it is more red than anything else; 

 the only white appears as a patch in the center of the falls. Large, 

 perfectly formed. HM AIS, 1958. See page 39. 



LACE GALORE (Noyd, '66) EL. 32" Each $7.50 



To those looking for lace in an Iris here is one in creamy yellow with 

 tan shoulders, excellent size and about as lacey and fringed as they 

 ever come! Beard is deep gold. Long blooming period. 



LACED GOLD (Hoy6, '65) ML. 30" Each $7.50 



Coming from a cross of Rainbow Gold and Bravado, one can well 

 imagine what qualities to expect in this big, non-fading Indian yellow 

 with a heavy, deep yellow beard. Strong stalks with many buds. Mid- 

 season to late. 



LA NEGRA FLOR (Crosby, '57) M. Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 



The name means "Black Flower" in Spanish. Here is a tall, ruffled, 

 very dark Iris which won the Primo Firenze Gold Medal in inter- 

 national competition in Florence, Italy in 1959. 38 inches. HM AIS, 

 1958. 



LA ROSITA (HaW, '60) M. 36" Each $2.00 



A large, broad petaled, soft uniform rose self. Area below the beard 

 is paler, almost white, in center. Haft markings are not conspicuous, 

 but give a rosy tan flush near the center of the flower. Beard is pale 

 tangerine— not red. HM AIS, 1961. 



LASATA (Hinkle, '65) ML. 36" Each $20.00 



A very ruffled, huge flower of lilac-mauve, a subdued pastel shade 

 with self-textured veining in the falls. There is a wide area of gold 

 on the hafts and the beard is gold. Husky 3 foot stems. The name is 

 Indian and means "Place of Peace." HM AIS, 1968. 



LATE DATE (Ernsi, '67) VL. 36" Each $7.50 



Illustrated on page 40 . . . and comes honestly by the name, since 

 it is at its peak of bloom after almost all others have practically 

 finished. Standards and falls are both white in the central areas and 

 shade gradually to a uniform, bright violet-blue at the outer edges. 

 Beard is white but glows slightly orange within the flower. This is a 

 bi-tone blend and not in any sense a plicata. 36 inches tall, with good 

 placement. 



LAURIE (Gauher, '66) ML. 36" Each $10.00 



Heavily laced lilac-rose-pink with a tangerine beard. The falls have 

 extra wide hafts and are of thick porcelain-like substance. General 

 color effect is a sort of "ashes of roses" but much brighter than that 

 term would indicate. HM AIS, 1967; AM, 1969. 



LAVANESQUE (Schreiner, '53) EM. Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 



Color is an even shade of delicate orchid-pink, the very broad petals 

 nicely ruffled, the beard and hafts rich gold. This is a very full-bodied 

 flower in all its parts . . . possibly the very finest of all the orchid or 

 lilac-purple. 40 inches tall. HM AIS, 1955; AM, 1959. 



LEDA KNIGHT (Hinkle, '65) M. 34" Each $6.00 



Here is something new in the "bass viol" category of colors . . . ranging 

 from deepest red-violet to sooty black. The extra broad petals are 

 sleek and silky, elegantly ruffled. Beard is deep blue-violet lightly 

 tipped orange-brown. HM AIS, 1966. 



LICORICE STICK (Schreiner, '61) h\. 40" Each $2.00 



A blue-black of exceptional size with 40-inch stems. A nugget of color 

 richness in the Iris colorama. Even the beard is deep indigo. Although 

 intensely dark, a velvety sheen imparts brightness to this unusually 

 fine black. HM AIS, 1962; AM, 1964. 



Sunlit $10.00 



'May I take this opportunity of saying your Iris are excellent. I 

 purchase only from Oregon finding your stock healthy and 

 beautiful."

 Brockville, Out., Canada 



LIGHT AND LOVELY (Rees, '66) EM. 36" Each $12.00 



A cream and lime yellow combination with glowing yellow central 

 area and light yellow border on the falls. There is a bit of ruffling at 

 the margins and the heavy beard is creamy yellow. HM AIS, 1969. 



LiGHTUP (Plough, '63) ML. 36" Each $3.00 



Standards are Indian yellow with pink infusion in center. Falls are 

 a novel blend of pink and lemon, lighter in the center and shaded 

 to buttercup yellow at the margins. The beard is deep Saturn red, 

 heavy and wide. Well branched. HM AIS, 1964. 



LIKE MAGIC (Carlson, '66) ML. 37" Each $10.00 



Large yellow buds open into warm, widely flaring white flowers with 

 an outpouring of yellow in the center, down over the hafts and up 

 into the center of the standards.
