FORTUNE (Kleinsorge, 1941) Each $3.00 



Solid and uniform old gold, a flower of startling size and broadly 

 spreading form. The color is not dull, but very much alive due 

 to a peculiar overlay of "rusty red" that seems to come from 

 nowhere but is apparent in all parts of the flower. Of medium 

 height, the gigantic blooms are on a level that permits full ob- 

 servation of their size and beauty. Shown on page 1 5. 



FORTUNE'S FAVOR (DeForest, 1944) Each $15.00 



Really a giant in size, this new blend has about everything one 

 could ask for in a good Iris. The tan standards are broad and 

 closed. The very wide falls are rounded and colored a glistening 

 tan overlaid with lavender flush. Slightly waved and ruffled, lit 

 up by an extra heavy deep yellow beard. 



FRANCONIA (Graves, 1942) Each $11.00 



As cool and classic as white marble, a gigantic and perfectly 

 formed white Iris which may be the best white of all. Certainly 

 it is as fine as any we have ever grown and we recommend it 

 without hesitation. Originated in New Hampshire, its hardiness 

 is unquestioned. HM AIS, 1942. 



GLORIOLE (Gage, 1933) Each 50c; 3 for $1.25 



An Iris of huge size with pale blue petals overlaid with frosty 

 crystal-like particles. Wonderfully well formed and a noble flower, 

 waved and ruffled. Sometimes called "ice-blue." Height 40 

 inches. HM AIS, 1933; AM, 1935. 



GLOWPORT (DeForest, 1939) 



Each 40c; 3 for $1.00 



Solidly colored glowing wine-red, devoid of haft markings. Beard 

 is bronzy-yellow. This Iris has the additional attribute of bloom- 

 ing quite consistently again in the fall under favorable conditions. 

 Tall and well branched. 



GOLDBEATER (Kleinsorge, 1944) Each $10.00 



This is the oft-mentioned yellow of the AIS Bulletins, a solidly 

 colored chrome-yellow self that has invariably drawn praise from 

 judges. It is all yellow, deep and bright, without markings or 

 blendings of any kind and the buds themselves are like gobs of 

 deep yellow paint. A good grower, fast increaser, and will make 

 a glorious garden display. Large flowers, excellent branching 

 HM AIS, 1945. 



FRANK ADAMS (Lapham, 1937) Each 75c; 3 for $2.00 



A tall and very well-proportioned large Iris with rosy tan stand- 

 ards flushed yellow and rosy red falls. It is not a true variegata 

 but might be called a variegata blend. The colors are not harsh 

 and blend well in the garden scheme. Flowers, stalk and foliage 

 are unusually large size. HM AIS, 1938; AM, 1940. Shown in 

 color on page 1 8. 



GOLDEN EAGLE (Hall, 1942) Each $3.50 



Brilliant light yellow, with a satiny sheen. One of the largest of 

 all Irises, it is clear, even yellow throughout, without a trace of 

 amber or other shadings. A rapid increaser and easy grower. 

 Mr. Hall considers this one of his best introductions. HM AIS 

 1942. 



FRIEDA MOHR (Mohr, 1926) Each 35c; 3 for 90c 



One of the all-time Iris greats, a massive lilac-pink or light rosy 

 violet flower with broad spreading falls. When established and 

 well grown, this Iris will reach five feet in height, with stalks and 

 foliage in proportion. Far from new, it has become very scarce 

 the past two or three seasons. 



GALLANT LEADER (Wiesner, 1939) Each $1.50; 3 for $4.00 



Broad and well-arched standards of deep rose-red; falls velvety 

 maroon touched with coppery gold, especially at the haft. A flower 

 of staggering size, impressive in its richness and regal carriage. 

 HM AIS, 1939. 



GARDEN FLAME (H. Sass, 1941) Each $10.00 



A very deep rose- mahogany, if you can imagine such a color. 

 Called by some judges rose-red, but it is nearer garnet, with a 

 deep rose and brown area about the center. It has no haft mark- 

 ings, making it one of the richest and handsomest of all dark 

 Irises. Large, with very broad falls, and it blooms quite late. 

 HM AIS, 1940; AM, 1943. 



GARDEN GLORY (Whiting, 1943) Each $10.00 



A pure self of rich Bordeaux-red; a seedling from Red Douglas 

 crossed with Garden Magic. This is one of the nearest to true red 

 of any Iris ever flowered in our gardens; pure, deep and rich, with 

 no haft venation whatsoever. Smoothly finished, with deep bronze- 

 gold beard. Height 33 inches. HM AIS, 1945. 



GARDEN MAGIC (Grinter, 1936) Each $1.50 



After ten years this continues to hold a place right up in front 

 amongst the best of red Irises. A very late, very large and very 

 velvety deep red self, it increases slowly and the demand always 

 exhausts the supply. HM AIS, 1937. 



GAY SENORITA (Salbach, 1944) Each $8.50 



Large round standards of deep honey-yellow, broad semi -flaring 

 falls of golden yellow ground color, heavily overlaid deep brown 

 with deeper brown veining over the whole surface. Falls are fluted 

 at the edges. This is a brand new Iris of most unusual appearance; 

 it does not fade in the sun and the stalks are well branched and 

 36 to 40 inches tall. HM AIS, 1945. 



GLEN ELLEN (Connell, 1939) Each $1.50; 3 for $4.00 



Luminous golden tan with a bronzy suffusion on the falls. It has 

 the appearance of some of the creamy tan types of marble. Flow- 

 ers large on 3-foot well-branched stems. HM AIS, 1939. 



GOLDEN FLEECE (I. Sass, 1940) Each $5.00 



A big lemon-colored flower with creamy falls edged gold. Beauti- 

 fully ruffled, huge in size, tall and a good grower. The illustration 

 on page 7 is an excellent likeness, HM AIS, 1940; AM, 1942. 



GOLDEN HIND (Chadburn, 1934) Each 40c; 3 for $1.00 



The deepest golden yellow of all. Of medium size and height, with 

 horizontal falls, it is the standard used by most breeders in their 

 efforts for the perfect solid yellow. Very fast increaser and makes 

 a startling golden mass in the garden. AM AIS, 1937. Stock 

 limited. 



GOLDEN MADONNA (Essig, 1940) Each $1.50 



Creamy white and soft primrose combination, hardly to be classed 

 with the yellows but rather as a cream. Very large, with domed 

 standards and semi-flaring falls. 



GOLDEN MAJESTY (Salbach, 1938) Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 



For a deep yellow with all good habits we can recommend Golden 

 Majesty above all others in this price field. A big flower with 

 broad falls and closed standards, does not fade in the sun and 

 has proven reliable everywhere. 40 inches tall. HM AIS, 1939; 

 AM, 1940. See page 10. 



GOLDEN SPANGLE (Cassebeer, 1944) Each $5.00 



Deeper yellow than Golden Fleece but with a somewhat similar 

 color arrangement. Domed yellow standards; falls clear white 

 with heavy gilding of rich yellow forming a complete border. The 

 orange beard brings out in sharp contrast the white area of the 

 falls. Tall, with many flowers beautifully poised and ruffled. 

 HM AIS, 1944. 



GOLDEN SPIKE (Whiting, 1940) Each $3.00 



One of the top ranking deep golden yellows of today. It is so 

 yellow, and has such a heavy orange-yellow beard, that those 

 who see it for the first time are almost left gasping. Large and 

 tall, with several flowers open at one time and they do not fade. 

 HM AIS, 1940; AM, 1942. 



GOLDEN TREASURE (Schreiner, 1936) Each 50c; 3 for $1.25 



Solid deep cream, but with an outpouring of rich, golden or- 

 ange all about the central portion of the flower. Tall, perfectly 

 branched, very floriferous, it will stand out in a planting of hun- 

 dreds of varieties. HM AIS, 1936; AM, 1938. Stock very lim- 

 ited.
