CLARA NOYES Each 35c; 3 for 75c 



This lovely warm blend from the Sass gardens has 

 been a sensation in the iris world for the past few 

 years. The coloring is a medley of peach and apricot 

 tones, suggesting the rich and brilliant blendings of 

 the rose "Talisman." A beautiful novelty which is 

 always a complete sell-out each season. Small rhiz- 

 omes always. See page 38. 



COLUMBINE Each 40c; 3 for $1.00 



Introduced as a white Aphrodite, one of the par- 

 ents. As clean and clear as a crystal, with lovely 

 form, slender branching stems, this free flowering 

 white is distinct from all other white irises, and as a 

 result it was awarded the silver medal at the English 

 Iris Society's exhibit in London in 1930. Columbine 

 is a very fast multiplier. 



COPPER LUSTRE Each $ 1 2.00 



Absolutely unique, a magnificient iris from the 

 hand of Dr. Kirkland, who gave us Desert Gold, 

 Black Wings, and a number of very recent novelties 

 certain to make a fine impression on the iris growing 

 public. Copper Lustre positively glows in its bright 

 copper, gold, and pinkish tan blendings. It is a huge 

 flower, with lush foliage, and in the garden of its 

 originator was the center of attraction and comment 

 when the American Iris Society met in Nashville. 

 H. M. AIS 1935. See page 9. 



CORALIE Each $5.00 



A blend of pink and red that approaches rasp- 

 berry color in effect, with a dazzling note added in 

 the bright golden beard. With this fine variety Dr. 

 Ayres has scored honors again, for Coral ie was 

 awarded an H. M. by the AIS in 1932 and in 1933 was 

 given the Dykes Medal. Such recognition stamps it 

 as a certain leader for many seasons to come. Very 

 limited stock. 



CORINTHE Each $15.00 



First time catalogued in America! A new French 

 introduction from Cayeux that was awarded a special 

 Certificate of Merit in Paris 'in 1934. The flowers are 

 of immense s^ze and beautiful coloring, with broad 

 arching standards of rich silky bishop's violet. The 

 falls are broad and spreading, of richest velvety 

 bishop's violet. A strong grower, reaching four feet 

 in height. Very few rhizomes. 



CHROMYLLA Each $1.25 



With its soft smooth finish, heavy substance, and 

 uniform lemon chrome coloring, Chromylla has main- 

 tained a steady popularity as one of the leading new 

 yellows. Our stock is rather limited and late orders 

 probably cannot be filled. 



COSETTE Each $3.00 



Newly introduced by the Sass Brothers in 1936 

 Cosette is offered as a fine, large, broad petaled 

 white intermediate with every good point. The new 

 Snow Maiden is of different form and probably still 



13 



earlier, but in these two varieties we feel that real 

 advancement has been made in the early flowering 

 group. Both are rapid increasers. 



CROWN JEWEL Each $2.00 



A redder Clara Noyes, giving a burnt-orange mass 

 effect. Valuable on account of its vivid coloring, be- 

 ing neither large nor tall, about thirty inches. An 

 easy grower and rapid increaser.
