JEAN CAYEUX 



JEAN CAYEUX 



Certainly one of the most beautiful irises we have 

 ever flowered in our gardens. Likewise, it is one of 

 the most unusual in color — a soft, smooth, light buff, 

 described by some as "coffee colored" and by others 

 as Havana-brown. The form is perfect, as the accom- 

 panying illustration shows, and the size is larger than 

 average. It is splendidly branched, over three feet 

 tall, and flowers over a long season. Jean Cayeux has 

 been awarded a Certificate of Merit by the French 

 Horticultural Society, and in 1931 it won the Dykes 

 Medal for the finest iris of the year. It is listed in 

 Schreiner's "100 Super-Iris". Each $10.00 



I ERRY Raised by Mr. E. G. Lapham, 



' Elkhart. Ind. 



"We take particular pleasure in being numbered 

 among the joint introducers of this perfectly formed, 

 extremely brilliant red iris. Mr. Lapham has a splen- 

 did reputation for quality in his previous introduc- 

 tions, and enthusiasts will find that Jerry is very 

 close to the reddest thing ever turned out in an iris. 

 Not only that, but the large rounded flowers are as 

 near perfection as could be desired. Height three 

 feet, rapid of increase, hardiness unquestioned. We 

 recommend it whole-heartedlv. Each $5.00 



JANE WILLIAMSON 



Exquisite blend of rose, old gold and maroon. Not 

 large, but very floriferous and especially lovely. 



Each 25c ; three for 50c 



KALINCA 



Huge cream self, outstanding not only as an exhi- 

 bition spike, but as a garden specimen as well. The 

 broad, spreading, ivory textured blooms generally 

 come out in groups of three or four simultaneously, 

 and each stem will carry from twelve to fifteen flow- 

 ers. The spacing is perfect, as the photograph on 

 page 15 is a normal specimen and gives a clear idea 

 of the candelabra effect. An offspring of Dolly 

 Madison, its hardiness is beyond question. Four feet 

 in height. Each $10.00 



KANSAS 



This iris was introduced by Walter Timmerman. 

 of Kansas City, and although but little known, it is 

 certainly one of the very finest, large flowered, rose 

 pink varieties. The color slightly resembles Frieda 

 Mohr, but the flower is of an entirely different 

 shape, being more rounded and without the wide, 

 flaring falls. It is just a little lighter in tone, with a 

 pale yellow beard. Each 35c; three for $1.00 



KING JUBA 



Clear golden standards and brilliantly contrast- 

 ing falls of velvety red, the latter especially wide and 

 heavy of texture. A red and yellow effect as com- 

 pared with the orange and brown of Crown Prince. 

 These two constitute the royal pair of variegatas. 



Each $1.50 



KING KARL 



A dotted and sanded plicata in apricot tones, with 

 specks of brown and red, giving it a unique and 

 attractive effect. A large flower ; late. Each 25c 



KING MIDAS 



One of the first of the tall bearded irises to 

 flower. Of a soft and beAvitehing tone of golden buff 

 overlaid garnet brown. The heavy beard is deepest 

 orange, and the entire center of the bloom is illumi- 

 nated with intense golden lights. Perfect in every 

 detail. Medium in height. Each 85c 



KING SOLOMON 



One of the recent arrivals from England that was 

 heralded as a giant and improved Dominion. We 

 paid $50 for a single rhizome four years ago, but in 

 our garden it has failed to come up with such things 

 as Meldorie and Blue Velvet. For those who care to 

 try it. we offer our limited stock at — 



Each 50c 



KING TUT 



One of the inherent qualities of the many new 

 Sass irises is the element of rich red-brown in the 

 various color schemes. This has been accomplished 

 through the use of King Tut in the various crosses, 

 and in spite of his almost countless progeny, the 

 King still remains the most brilliant of all, blazing in 

 the sunlight like a live ember. Easy to grow, a free 

 flowerer. Every iris grower should have it.
