ORANGE CHARIOT (fay, '64) M. 34 " $2.50 

 Light orange, both standards and falls a uniform shade. Blossoms are 

 large, with wide petals, semi-flaring and thick in texture. The in- 

 tense, tangerine-coral beard adds brilliance and appeal to the thrilling 

 and captivating color. 



ORANGE JADE (Wise, '63) M. 36" $1 .50 



A deep golden orange self, near to true orange, including the beard. 

 The form is excellent and the intense color should make it a striking 

 clump in the garden. HM, '64. 



ORANGE PARADE (Hamblen, '61) EM. 36" $3.00 



A vivid and moderately laced and ruffled orange bi-tone, between 

 Marigold and Spanish orange. A startling and rich orange effect.

 '64. Shown on page 31. 



ORCHID BROCADE (Rudolph, '65) EM. 36" $3.50 



Well named, because of its color and the extra heavy texture of the 

 very broad petals. The general color effect is rich orchid-rose, with 

 a slight beige flush. Fine in every way. HM, '66. AM, '68. Shown 

 on page 41. 



ORCHID FROST (Luihn, '71) h\. 36" $10.00

OUTREACH (J. Nelson, '71 )E. 36" $1 0.00 



Among the first of the giant bearded to flower is this golden yellow 

 and white. The broad falls are wavy and the stems carry so many 

 big blossoms, that although blooming early, they continue past mid- 

 season. The closed standards are deep gold, matching the sharply 

 defined band of color around the edge of the flaring falls. Pictured 

 on page 1 1 .

 We like this best of all we have seen of this type . . . pale blue- 

 almost white— standards and solid indigo blue falls with a slight 

 violet cast. A bit of this deeper color extends part way upward along 

 the mid-ribs of the standards. Perfect form, with domed standards 

 and wide, flaring wavy falls. Well branched. Shown on page 38. 



OVATION (Tompkins, '69) ML. 38" $1 2.50 



One of the pinkest Iris in existence. Beautifully formed, heavily sub- 

 stanced and long lasting. Its color makes all others seem pale. Good 

 strong stalks and well branched. Also a good grower.

 A spectacular sea-blue self of great-size and imposing carriage. The 

 ruffled flowers are produced on 40-inch, well branched stems. Beard

PALISADES (Plough, '64) EM. 36" $3.00

 ards are pink to poppy-red, blending to tangerine-orange at the edges.

 to late. HM, '66.
