LIMELIGHT (Hall, '52) Each 75c; 3 for $2.00 



A canary-yellow to greenish yellow Chantilly, very much larger than 

 that famous ruffled and frilled member of the pink strain. It is a Sun- 

 ray seedling, all vellow with a lighter area on the falls. One of the 

 most novel Iris we have ever grown and one of the most beautiful as 

 well. The lace-like blossoms are produced on 35-inch stems. HM AIS 

 1952; AM, 1954. See page 60. 



LITTLE DOLLY (Hall, '61) Each $7.50 



Out of the maze of pinks in the annual crop of new seedlings this 

 very bright and intensely colored medium size flower stood out de- 

 spite its short stature. Slender of stem, reaching a height of about 20 

 inches, it is loaded with flowers and lasts and lasts. This should find 

 enthusiastic acceptance in Median Iris circles. Color plate on page 38 

 is a good likeness but the beard is even more red than shown. HM 

 AIS, 1962. 



"My recent shipment of rhizomes was, as ususal, in perfect 

 condition. Yours are by far, every year, superior to any. 1 

 want to thank you for the lovely bonus gift. I win ribbons 

 every year on your Iris."

DESERT THISTLE 



LITTLE GREMLIN (Hall, '62) Each $3.50 



Something entirely different, a perky little almost black-and- 

 white fellow on 10 to 12-inch stems. The falls are stiff and 

 almost horizontal, white except for a short band of solid black- 

 ish violet on the outer edge and extending about the length of 

 the soft brownish beard. Standards and style-arms are almost 

 solid deep blackish violet, lightly flaked white. This has the 

 appearance of some species other than the bearded but it is 

 related to the plicata Dot and Dash. Median enthusiasts have 

 exclaimed over it and all agree that it is unique. Foliage is 

 broad but short. HM AIS, 1963. See page 6. 



LORNA LYNN (Plough, '61) Each $10.00 



This is a luscious blend of salmon, pink and apricot. The large 

 flowers are flaring and there is a yellow flush below the bright 

 Saturn-red beard. Very long blooming season. 35 inches. HM AIS, 

 1963. 



LOVELY LETTY (Hall, '60) Each $4.00 



Bright violet-blue with very brilliant tangerine beard, 30-32 

 inches tall, with many flowers. Very flaring falls, standing almost 

 horizontal— a fine feature for an Iris of medium height. Self 

 colored except for the fiery beard. Shown on page 22. HM AIS, 

 1961. 



LUCY LEE (Gibson, '60) Each $4.00 



Clean sparkling white with bright red-violet stitching: of a 

 size and quality that sets a new standard in plicatas of this 

 color combination. The illustration lacks the flash and vivid- 

 ness of the actual flower but it does show the symmetrical 

 form, broad petals and moderate ruffling which are typical. It 

 is very large, the stems tall and fully branched and it produces 

 an abundance of bloom. The beard is light yellow on a gleam- 

 ing white haft. Height 3 feet. See page 58. HM AIS, 1961. 



LUNAR FIRE (Hall, 1963) Each $20.00 



Featured in color inside our cover ... a big. spreading, lace- 

 edged flower of golden amber hues, the sharply contrasting 

 beard a blazing tangerine red. Dave Hall worked for years in 

 breeding this series and this one has been singled out as supe- 

 rior to all its kinfolk. In addition to form and size it has petals 

 of extra heavy thickness and very stout well branched stems. 

 36 inches. 



LYNN HALL (Hall, '57) Each $2.50 



Invariably draws a crowd of admirers. The picture on our 

 back cover is very close to the actual bloom ... a very deep 

 and uniform shade of luscious pink. It flowers freely, is 

 beautifully branched and grows and increases vigorously. 

 3 feet in height. HM AIS, 1957; AM, 1959.
