Red Robe 



An enormous bloom of perfect shape and habit, 

 considered liy Col. Nicholls as the finest iris he has 

 ever turned out. Standards deep petunia-violet, 

 domed. P'alls deep red-violet, uniformly colored to 

 the edge. Yellow beard. The flower is" of splendid 

 rounded shape, a brilliant, glowing iris that lights 

 up in the garden like a huge ruby. This iris sold at 

 sight when in bloom, and as a result was unobtain- 

 able later in the season last summer. 

 H. M. ATS 1932. Each $8.00

 in height, of unquestioned liardiness and reliability.

Rhea 



Something of the coloring found in tlie old Iso- 

 line, but a flower of highest merit and stateliness.

Rosakura 



A "Williamson introduction of high merit, the 

 name of which I understand means "Rising Sun". 

 Like our old and true friend. Morning Splendor, this 

 new iris needs to be seen with the sun behind it to be 

 at its best. Then the rosy-purple standards and the 

 rich red-purple falls take on a magnificence and 

 splendor seldom found in any iris, Mrs, Hires, noted 

 iris critic, has remarked that Rosakura is among Wil- 

 liamson's masterpieces and her favorite of his lO.'^O 

 introductions. Each $1,00; three for $2,00 



RUBEO

 excellent branching habit, and four feet in height.

 maroon of heavy velvety texture. The finest red 

 among Mohr-Mitchell introductions. 



Each $4,00; three for $10,00 



Rusty Gold 



Another outstanding American introduction. An 

 orange-bronze blend, flushed copper red. This is a 

 particularly vivid iris, and is invaluable for garden 

 effect. One of the newer shades that is largely 

 res])onsible for the growing popularity of the iris. 

 Vigorous in growth, hardy, and over three feet tall. 



Each $4,00 



Sachem 



A glorified King Tut, grown by Dr, Loomis, Glori- 

 ous in richest tones of red-brown, of heavy velvety 

 texture. Falls are especially brilliant.

Sacramento 



A plicata of the San Francisco type, but with 

 reddish brown dots and reticulations instead of the 

 usual blue or lavender. Ground color is a creamy 

 white. A very tall variety, the large flowers being 

 produced on well branched stems. This is another 

 iris which was given one of the highest awards of 

 the Iris Society in 1931, an H. M. It is probably 

 even more dependable in unfavorable climates than 

 are many of the other California productions. 



Each $1.50
