EVOLUTION 



Pale copper-bronze self, with heavily frilled 

 standards. The falls are also copper-bronze, but are 

 overlaid blue and capped with a brilliant orange 

 beard. This is of French origination, and is one of 

 the most worthwhile irises we have had from that 

 master, Cayeux. Each $2.00 



GOLDEN LIGHT 



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. ' Each $8.00 



FRIEDA MOHR 



Dependable anywhere, despite the fact that it was 

 originated in California and contains tender blood, 

 it is perfectly at home in Ohio, Minnesota, and New 

 England, as well as in the moist climate of the Pa- 

 cific Northwest, The color is a lively shade of 

 violet-pink, standards slightly lighter than the falls. 

 Its huge size and great height make it a leader in 

 any color class. Each 35c; 3 for 75c 



FRIVOLITE 



The general effect is one of brilliant shrimp-pink, 

 with golden glints. This French introduction is of- 

 fered as a great improvement upon the fine variety 

 Marquisette, being a deeper shade. A very lovely 

 and unique novelty, at its best when established a 

 year. It increases rapidly. See page 12. Each $1.50 



FROST QUEEN 



The finest white fall bloomer. See page 35. 



GAY HUSSAR 



A gay thing, indeed! A combination of richest 

 and brightest yellow and velvety ox-blood red falls. 



Each 30c 



GERMAINE PERTHUIS 



A wonderful iris, with substance like leather. A 

 huge, glowing flower of bright red-purple, with a 

 fiery orange beard. Very fragrant. 



Each 25c; three for 50c 



GILEAD 



A beautiful golden blend, tinged with bronze. 

 The ground color is soft buff, overlaid amber, the 

 falls somewhat deeper 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. Each $3.00 



GLORIOLE 



Described as an "ice blue self", this introduction 

 by Merton Gage was the outstanding new iris in New 

 England during the past two 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 par- 

 ticles. Wonderfully formed and surely a most noble 

 flower. Pew plants. Each $20.00 



GOLDEN HARVEST 



Free flowering j'ellow fall bloomer. See page 35. 



GOLDILOCKS 



Uniform yellow, of soft, smooth finish. This is one 

 of the most free flowering of the new tall yellows, the 

 numerous branches being heavily laden with blos- 

 soms. Very rapid of increase, it is a reliable and 

 showy garden subject. Each $1.00; three for $2.00 



GOLD STREAM 



A very tall cream-yellow, with brilliant orange 

 beard, giving it a very striking appearance. 



Each 50c 



GOLD TOP 



Introduced by Carl Salbach in 1931. Rich old 

 gold standards, set off by falls that are red violet in 

 the center and edged old gold. The style arms and 

 beard afford a further touch of gold. Blooms very 

 early and continues all through the season, the colors 

 growing richer as the season advances; 42 inches tall 

 and well branched. To me. this iris presented the 

 novel appearance of being fashioned out of brass, 

 because of the odd brass-yellow color effect. You 

 surely will like it. Each 40c; three for $1.00 



GRACE STURTEVANT 



Almost black-brown when first opening, this vel- 

 vety Dominion seedling holds first position in its 

 color class. The chocolate falls are figuratively set 

 on fire with the leaping brilliance of the orange-red 

 beards. It is one of the most popular among visitors 

 to our display gardens, and deservedly so. We now 

 have a large stock of fine big rhizomes. See page 24. 



Each 75c ; three for $2.00 



HAPPY DAYS 



From advance reports, this is the greatest iris in- 

 troduction of the past decade. Described as a solid 

 uniform bright yellow, in size as large as the giant 

 El Capitan. and acclaimed by every iris critic who 

 has seen it. Surely it must have been a very happy 

 day when the originator, Sidney Mitchell, viewed the 

 first open blossom ! Each $17.50 



HEARTHSTONE COPPER 



Here is a real surprise ! Mr. Doub, the introducer, 

 sent three rhizomes to us for trial in 1932. In May of 

 last year they sent up ten bloom stalks, lighting the 

 garden like a bonfire. With standards of bright old 

 gold, it shades down to the fiery red falls, so bright 

 as to be almost startling. The flowers are only of 

 medium size, and form is not especially good, but for 

 lively color nothing else approaches it. Truly some- 

 thing different. Each $1.00; three for $2.00
