EMMA COOK 



MAIN EVENT (Peterson, '60) Each $5.00 



Self combination of light Indian-Lake and Garnet-Lake 

 reds; dull yellow beard. Heavily substanced large flowers 

 in an unusual shade of red, the falls wide and flaring. 

 This is a vigorous grower, with 3-foot steins. HM AIS, 

 1961. 



MAJOR EFF (Watkins, '55) Each $3.00 



Deep Bluebird Blue with an almost white beard. Stand- 

 ards are upright but closed, the falls very broad and semi- 

 flaring, with neat ruffling at the rim. Here is a lovely 

 blue not as yet familiar to most Iris growers. Over three 

 feet tall, the stalks si ill and nicely branched. HM AIS, 

 1956. 



MARRIOTT (Marriott, '59) Each $3.00 



A novel shade of pale blue, sort of dove colored, with a 

 striking blue beard. Sleek finish and flaring form add to 

 the attractiveness of this unique Iris. 30 inches. HM AIS, 

 1961 and near the top of the list. See page 16. 



MARY RANDALL (Fay, '51) Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 



This deep rose-pink self, with bright tangerine-red beard is 

 a new color in Iris. The flowers are large and have a thick- 

 ness of petal seen in few other varieties. Haft is very wide, 

 free from markings. The form of this Iris is near perfec- 

 tion and the flowers are well spaced along a nicely 

 branched, 36-inch stem. Produces wonderful seedlings.

MAUVE MINK (Hall, '61) Each $8.00 



You have seen this modern hue in some of the soft, and 

 lustrous fur stoles and wraps created to keep apace with 

 today's fashion trends in color. This is pretty much a self 

 —a bewitching shade of rosy lilac and a hint of blue- 

 paling to an almost white area about the haft, in sharp 

 contrast to the red-orange beard. Note the opulence of the 

 ruffled standards and the breadth of the spreading falls. 

 Flowers are large in size, produced on stout 3-foot, well 

 branched stalks. Shown on pages 32 and 39. HM AIS, 1962. 



MAY HALL (Hall, '54) Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 



In the opinion of Mr. Hall this is the best flamingo-pink 

 he has thus far turned out. The color is clear, clean, and 

 bright. A shade of pink which everyone expects in a flower 

 of this hue. Many spreading blossoms to the stem, good 

 branching, and a vivid beard to set it off. 36 inches tall. 

 HM AIS, 1954; AM, 1956. Shown on page 24. 



MAY MAGIC (Schreiner, '56) Each $1 .50; 3 for $4.00 



A fresh, light hearted, radiant orchid-pink. Not related to 

 nor resembling the flamingo-pinks, it is a frilly edition of 

 the Pink Plume and Lavanesque series. Luscious and 

 delicate, with opalescent hues. HM AIS, 1956.
