OREGON TRAIL (Kleinsorge, 1943) Each $7.50 



A big heavy textured flower in smoothly blended shades of tawny 

 salmon, a rich gold beard and odd soft brown areas surmounting the 

 broad falls. For sheer individuality it ranks along with Old Parchment, 

 Tobacco Road and Aztec Copper. About three feet high, with heavy 

 stems and large flowers; very late. In color on page 6. 



ORLOFF (H. Sass, 1937) Each 60c; 3 for $1.50 



A peach and cinnamon plicata of good size and most unusual col- 

 oring, being a sort of cinnamon-brown in effect. The ground color 

 is deep cream, heavily dotted and edged red-brown. Heavy bloomer, 

 medium height. HM AIS, 1937. 



ORMACO (Kleinsorge, 1942) Each $8.00 



From a cross of Ormohr and Aztec Copper, Dr. Kleinsorge secured 

 this first seedling of the famous Ormohr. The color is an odd blend 

 of violet with much bronze and brown, especially about the center. 

 The whole flower has a metallic cast. Neither as tall nor as large 

 as its parent, still a large Iris and produces several blossoms per stalk. 



ORMOHR (Kleinsorge, 1937) Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 



One of the largest Irises in existence, and especially noteworthy be- 

 cause it is a seedling of Wm. Mohr. It reaches 40 inches in height, 

 with several great blooms on well-branched stalks. The color is pale 

 lilac with a sMvery cast, veined violet. Darker when first opening 

 and in dull weather. HM AIS, 1939; AM, 1940. 



OZONE (J. Sass, 1935) Each 50c 



A peculiar and subtle shade of rosy lavender, the same in standards 

 and falls, with a pronounced copper shoulder on each fall. Large and 

 of ideal shape, a fine grower. HM AIS, 1936; AM, 1938. 



PACIFIC SUNSET (Salbach, 1944) Each $5.00 



An appealing big blend of old rose, gold and pink.. Standards old 

 rose shading to gold at the base; falls light amaranth-pink shading 

 to gold on outer edges and upper half. Beard bright gold. 3-foot 

 well-branched stems; perfect form with ruffled standards. 



PAINTED DESERT (Milliken, 1943) Each $15.00 



Gorgeous colorings of the Arizona desert blended into a stately Iris 

 reaching four feet in height. A soft buffy tan, with brownish suffu- 

 sion at the haft and violet midribs in the standards. A light violet 

 patch at the end of the beard adds a contrasting touch. 



PATRICE (DeForest, 1945) Each $10.00 



New white plicata which we like very much and which we regard as 

 different from the many others listed. Standards light cream flushed 

 pale rosy lavender; falls sparkling white brushed bright gold across 

 the haft which is speckled rose-brown. Refined, clean and very bril- 

 liant. Tall and large, with all good points. 



PATRICIA (H. Sass, 1939) Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 



Pure white, both standards and falls heavily ruffled. A medium sized 

 flower, about 34 inches tall; a gem for creating a mass of white 

 bloom in the garden. 



PEACH GLOW (Kleinsorge, 1943) Each $7.50 



A seedling of Daybreak. Tall wiry stems bear many medium sized 

 flowers of peach-pink color which last over a very long season. Makes 

 a very pink clump, where it is at its best. Not impressive the first 

 season as a single stalk. 



PERSIAN PRINCE (H. Sass 1941) Each $3.50 



This is a variagata of the City of Lincoln type, with solidly colored 

 falls. Standards are bright yellow; falls flaring and deep rich maroon- 

 brown — no band at the edge. HM AIS, 1942. 



PINK REFLECTION (Cook, 1942) Each $8.00 



Chamois-skin-pink self, a peculiar and enchanting shade unlike any- 

 thing else. There seems to be a fleeting buff undertone. A crisp 

 and clean cut flower, flaring in form, with very heavy texture. The 

 beard is lemon. Height 3 feet; very late. HM AIS, 1942; AM, 1944. 



PINK RUFFLES (Smith, 1940) Each $2.00; 3 for $5.00 



Solidly colored lilac-pink that might be classed as an intermediate 

 because of its low growth — about 24 to 28 inches. The flowers are 

 self colored and heavily fluted and ruffled, produced in great number. 

 HM AIS, 1940; AM, 1942. 



PIUTE (Thomas, 1937) Each 50c; 3 for $1.25 



One of the most popular of all red Irises and surely one of the nearest 

 to true red. Of medium size and height, it is a self of dark but very 

 bright bronzy maroon-red. 



PRAIRIE SUNSET (H. Sass, 1939) Each $3.50 



All that has been said about this gorgeous Sass creation is true, but 

 it simply has to be seen to be realized. The blendings of peach, apri- 

 cot, rose, copper and gold are so well done that one is at a loss to 

 describe it adequately. The picture on page 1 6 is fairly accurate, 

 however, and leaves but little to the imagination. A fine big flower 

 that will give you a thrill every time you look at it. HM AIS, 1937; 

 AM, 1941. Dykes Medal, 1943. 



PEACHBLOW 



PEACHBLOW (H. Sass, 1943) Each $4.00 



A pinkish plicata with yellow ground, illustrated perfectly in 

 color plate. This Iris has the remarkable faculty of "carrying 

 power" and its pinkiness accents any spot where it is planted. 

 Oval shaped blooms on tall stems, nicely branched. Rapid 

 increaser.
