Classic 



A goi'geous thing of the Asia type, of Dominion 

 form and texture, with wide, flaring falls, and a 

 stiff, cane-like stem. The huge standards appear to 

 be fashioned out of gold leaf, gradually shading to 

 reddish-lavender in the upper portion. The beard 

 and center of the flower glows so vividly that Mr. 

 Grinter, the hybridizer, says that when he looks 

 into it, it almost seems to be alive. Classic is dis- 

 tinctly from the average run of introductions and 

 we heartily recommend it. Each $1.50 



Columbine 



Introduced as a white Aphrodite, one of the 

 parents. 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 exhii)it in London in 1930. Columbine 

 is a very fast multiplier, our own stock increasing 

 about 50 to one in three years. Each $2.00 



Coppersmith 



A very tall and robust ii'is with large flowers of 

 copper-bronze, overlaid with velvety red. 



Each 25c; three for 50c 



Coronation 



For those who do not feel like investing in the 

 newer yellows offered in this list because of the 

 higher cost, we sincerely recommend Coronation. It 

 is a uniform deep yellow, absolutely hardy, doesn't 

 fade, and compares well with irises of recent intro- 

 duction in other colors. Our large stock has been 

 built up to meet the demand which we felt sure 

 would come when growers realized the value of this 

 yellow. Each 40c; three for $1.00 



Crown Prince 



Finest and richest of Dominion variegatas, with 

 deep orange-yellow standards and falls of dark and 

 velvety red-brown, solid to the edge. Produced by 

 Dr. Kleinsorge, it was included in Schreiner's list of 

 "100 Super-Iris" in 1933. A sturdy and reliable grow- 

 er, it increases rather slowly, and we have only a 

 few plants for sale. Each $7.50 



Dauntless 



The peer of all red irises, a Dykes medal winner 

 in America, and certainly one of the finest things 

 ever introduced. The blooms are of great size, on 

 tall stems, and flower over a long season. In color 

 Dauntless appears much redder than most other so- 

 called red irises, due partly to the fact that it carries 

 a mixture of orange and brown in its pigment and 

 very little blue or purple. Across the garden it glows 

 like fire. Each $2.00 ; three for $5.00 



Delight 



Very lovely plicata with only the rose style 

 branches to detract from its whiteness. 



Each 25c ; three for 50c 



Desert Dawn 



(ilorious yellow and laveiitlei- hleiid. the gold of

dards and falls, which are pure lavender. A great 

 im]n-ovenient on Candlelight, with less lavender, 

 larger blooms, and a stronger stem. 



Each $5.00 



Desert Gold 



A very early, very large, and extremely fine ad- 

 dition to our growing list of yellow sorts. Desert 

 Gold is not a deep yellow, nor is it a pale yellow- 

 comparable to anything we now have in this class. 

 Standards are large and domed, pure light yellow. 

 Falls are extra broad and are a very light yellow, 

 but the central portion is of an unusually brilliant 

 chrome, with a heavy, deep yellow beard, and this 

 makes for an effect not present in any other yellow. 

 It certainly is deserving of a position among the best 

 new introductions. Nothing else like it. See cut on 

 page 13. H. M. AIS 1931. A. M. 1932. Each $2.00 



DOGROSE 



A very beautiful, superb pink iris, with very 

 large, oval shaped flowers in a uniform shade of soft 

 pink, with deep gold beard. The stalks are almost 

 shoulder high, and in the English trial grounds at 

 Wisley it proved a sensation. American visitors at 

 the English shows were struck with its beauty. Dog- 

 rose was awarded the silver medal at the London 

 show when exhibited as a seedling in 1929. Very 

 limited stock. See page 7. 



Each $4.00; three for $10.00
