ETHEREAL PINK (Gibson, '62) Each $7.50 



This is an exquisitely laced new pink self with melon pink beard, 

 jewel-like in finish and color. The standards are large and domed, 

 the falls wide and held high before arching. Style arms are large 

 and heavily laciniated in keeping with the "pinking shears" treat- 

 ment of all petal edges. Rampant in growth and prolific in bloom 

 it has been an alluring attraction in the Gibson garden where its 

 color has withstood the test of hottest sun. Vigorous, well branched, 

 three feet in height. 



FABULOUS (Kleinsorge, '58) Each $3.50 



Here is a flower remindful of the splendor in a scene from a tale 

 in the Arabian Nights! Our picture on page 36 is neither deep 

 enough in tone nor sufficiently brilliant to portray the pageant of 

 color loosed in the garden when this Iris unfolds ... a blend of 

 red, rose, violet and copper. Very large, quite late. 36-38 inches. 

 HM AIS, 1958. 



FAIRY FABLE (Ernst, '61) Each $10.00 



The first introduction originating here at Cooley's Gardens, Larry 

 Ernst, having had access to all of the Iris in our entire collection, 

 including the newest of the Hall seedlings, has produced some very 

 high class things of his own. This one, resulting from Lynn Hall 

 crossed with May Hall combines the best features of both parents. 

 The shade of pink is about midway between these two. The falls 

 possess great width, extra thick substance and are ruffled and waved 

 at the margins. The heavy beard is deep tangerine-red. 36 inches. 

 Shown on page 38. HM AIS, 1962. 



FASHION SHOW (Hamblen, '59) Each $3.50 



Here is a combination of shades and tints in violets, mauve 

 and gold dust, unmatched by any Iris we know. Flowers 

 are widely flaring, the standards closed, and handsome 

 ruffling adds attractiveness. Beard is brilliant orange. Long 

 blooming season. 36 inches. HM AIS, 1959. Shown on 

 page 62. 



FATHER RIGNEY (Mission, '56) Each $1 .00; 3 for $2.50 



Very large dark violet with violet beard tipped white. High 

 up on the "shoulders," where the standards and falls meet, 

 there is a dark brown blotch which adds interest and 

 beauty to this richly colored Iris. It is an exceptionally 

 vigorous grower; tall, straight and well branched. 42 inches. 



FESTOON (Hall, '58) Each $2.00; 3 for $5.00 



A luscious blend of caramel and peach and salmon-pink, with extra 

 heavy beard of tangerine-red. The coloring is positively mouthwater- 

 ing! Note the crimped and ruffled edges of botli standards and falls in 

 the picture on page 57— a most attractive feature of this delectable 

 novelty. From pink breeding, it should be a gem for the hybridizer. 

 It is quite early, of good size, well branched on 38-inch stems. HM 

 AIS, 1959. 



FIRE BRIGADE (Schreiner, '57) Each $2.50 



Glowing crimson-red, shapely in form of flower, of good size and 36 

 inches in height. The beard is bronze-orange. Well named, it pro- 

 vides an especially fiery clump of garden color. HM AIS, 1958. See 

 page 61.
