Mabel Tajt — The Giant Aynong Irises 



GILEAD Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 



A beautiful golden blend, tinged with bronze. 

 The ground color is soft buff, overlaid amber, the 

 falls somewhat deepr than the standards. These 

 same lovely golden brown tones are found in the 

 new French iris "Jean Cayeux", although the form 

 is different. Gilead is one of the finest of all Ameri- 

 can introductions, and possesses a unique color dis- 

 tinction. H. M., AIS 1932. 



GLORIOLE Each $9.00 



Described as an "ice blue self", this introduction 

 by Merton Gage was the outstanding new iris in New 

 England during the past three seasons. Critics in that 

 section waxed very enthusiastic when it was first 

 shown, and it was immediately awarded an H.M. of 

 the Iris Society. Of huge size, the pale blue petals 

 are entirely overlaid with frosty crystal-like particles. 

 Wonderfully formed and surely a most noble flower. 

 Few plants. A. M. AIS 1935. 



GOLDEN FLARE Each $1.50 



Flame colored! And that is no exaggeration. It is 

 many shades deeper than Talisman, with much more 

 orange and a salmon-rose dominating background. 

 As a garden subject it creates a flash of brilliance 

 equaled by few sorts. Medium in size, with slender 

 stems; a color jewel that will captivate you. 



GOLDEN HARVEST Each 35c; 3 for $1.00 



Standards olive yellow, tinted blue at the base- 

 falls citron yellow, tinted blue near the haft. This 

 introduces a bright and cheerful note in the fall gar- 

 den, and is the one yellow autumn flowering iris that 

 is obtainable at a low price. 



GOLDEN HELMET Each $10.00 



A huge King Tut, with very ruffled standards and 

 ox-blood red falls. The public has long wished for a 

 flower of large size with the bright red falls of the old 

 favorite King Tut, and we have it here, with brighter 

 standards and attractive ruffling to enhance it. 



GOLDEN LIGHT Each $3.00 



A seedling of Euphony, with the distinctive form 

 and size of that lovely ruffled variety. The difference 

 lies in the rich orange-cinnamon color of this new 

 variety — something new in the tan group. Very 

 bright and of wonderful carrying quality. 40 inches 

 tall. Shown on page 6. 



GOLDEN TREASURE Each $17.50 



Solid deep cream, but with an outpouring of rich 

 golden orange all about the central portion of the 

 flower. This gives it a distinction so striking that it 

 will be immediately singled out in a planting of 

 hundreds of varieties. We saw this as a seedling in 

 1935 and regarded it as the finest un-introduced iris 

 we saw that year. Produced by Robert Schreiner in 

 St. Paul, Minn., it is most vigorous and grows to 40 

 inches tall.
