Gold Top 



Introduced by Carl Salbaeh 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 vei"y 

 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 $2.50 ; three for $6.00 



Hassan 



This is a seedling of Zulu crossed with Moonlight, 

 carrying the Dominion form and substance of the 

 former and the general color tone of the latter. The 

 standards are a glistening sulphury yellow, the falls 

 quite similar, overlaid and suffused smoky violet 

 with heavy greenish gold reticulations on white at 

 the haft. Certificate of merit at the London show in 

 1930. Each $2.50; three for $6.00 



Hernani 



Among the brightest and most free flowering of 

 the red group. Tlie standards are rosy red, the falls 

 are very brilliant garnet-red and are held horizon- 

 tally. Planted with such pinkish toned varieties as 

 Frivolite it presents a most striking pure red effect. 

 Mr. Wister had a fine clump of this when I visited 

 his garden in 1931 and I thought it the reddest iris 

 I had seen at that time. 



Each $3.00 



Henri Riviere 



The luige waxen standards are solid lemon yel- 

 low, the broad falls are delicate mauve, edged 

 canary yellow and blending into canary yellow at 

 the throat. An exciuisite pale blend, the predominant 

 note being bright yellow. This iris is of very large 

 size, produced on vigorous stems, and M. Millet, the 

 French hybridist, regards it as his highest achieve- 

 ment. 



Each $2.50 



Indian Chief 



AYell named, for while classed as one of our su- 

 perior reds, it carries a bronzy overcast, being re- 

 garded by some critics as a red blend. At any rate, 

 Indian Chief is one of the most popular of the newer 

 things, and a credit to Doctor Ayres, its introducer. 

 A stalk of this was exhibited at the Boston show, 

 and was one of the most talked of irises in the entire 

 display. The velvety falls are deep blood-red. blended 

 with bronze, and the standards are considerably 

 lighter in tone. A large flower, quite tall, and very 

 well branched. Shown in color on page 9. 



Each $2.00; three for $5.00

 ei'able brown at the throat. Flower of good size and

Julia Marlowe 



Large and tall, giving a pink and red effect. One 

 of Shnll's best introductions. 



Each 25c 



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. 



Each $1.00; three for $2.50 



Kansas 



This iris was introduced by AValter Timmerman, 

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

 certainly one of the very finest, large floAvered, rose 

 pink varieties. The color slightly resembles Frieda 

 Alohr, 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 

 |)ale yellow beard. 



Each 75c; three for $2.00 



King Midas 



One of the first of the tall bearded irises to 

 flower. Of a soft and bewitching 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. Aledium in height. 



Each $2.50 



Ion 



An improved "Swazi" of great size, verv deep 

 Bradley's violet of wonderful form and immense 

 size. Cream beard.

King Solomon 



One of the recent arrivals from England that Avas 

 heralded as a giant and improved Dominion. We 

 paid J};50 for a single rhizome two years ago, but in 

 our garden it has failed to come up with such things 

 as Meldoric and Blue Velvet. For those who care to 

 try it, we offer our limited stock at — 



Each $2.00

 er in tones of deep mulberry, bronze and brown. Not 

 brilliant, but remarkably rich and sombre, suggest- 

 ing a rare antique or valuable old tapestry.
