SUMMER SUN fCroig, '57; Each $2.50 



This is a deep yellow from California, very pro- 

 lific in growth and bloom, but it may not be hardy 

 in the North. We do recommend it for the South, 

 where it is fine, indeed. 34 inches. 



SUMMIT (Stevens, '51) Each $2.00 



Pure white standards and falls of rich yellow mark 

 this as a more contrasting Pinnacle. The style 

 arms carry a deep yellow stain which matches the 

 beard. 40 inches tall. 



SUNRAY (Hall, '50) Each $1 .00; 3 for $2.50 



A large ruffled light yellow of quite ideal form and 

 extra heavy substance. One parent is the pink 

 Floradora. These pinks give a sheen and brilliance 

 to their offspring rarely found in yellows. The 36- 

 inch stems and branching are excellent. It is a 

 fast increaser, hardy and an outstanding parent for 

 ruffled pinks and yellows. A well grown stem of 

 Sunray is well nigh the perfect Iris. HM AIS, 1951. 



SUNSET BLAZE (Kleinsorge, '48) Each $1.50 



A tall and huge golden flame-salmon blend, almost 

 a red, but with so much of the gold influence in it 

 that it is not really a red Iris. You have seen the 

 sun look much like this just before it sinks over 

 the horizon. Both standards and falls are extra 

 large and the haft and beard are bright golden 

 yellow. A most impressive flower, blooming very 

 early on widely branched stalks reaching 42 inches. 

 Winner of the President's Cup at the AIS conven- 

 tion in 1949. HM AIS, 1949; AM, 1951. 



SURPRISE PARTY (Kleinsorge, '55) Each $6.00 

 A new combination of colors— rosy lavender stand- 

 ards and golden apricot falls— pastel hues with 

 definite contrast and strong garden value. The 

 originator has been breeding this line for years and 

 this is the first introduction of this series. Good 

 sized flowers on extra well branched, 3-foot stems. 

 HM AIS, 1956. 



SWEET REFRAIN (Hall, '56) Each $20.00 



Here we have an addition to the popular and ever- 

 increasing list of new pinks. Not only does it have 

 more depth of color than most others introduced 

 up to this time, but it also possesses great width of 

 petals and widely flaring falls. We think Sweet 

 Refrain is destined to be one of the most admired 

 of all the pinks. Height 3 feet, well branched and 

 above average in size. HM AIS, 1956. 



SYLISTA (Mitchell, '50) Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 



Wax-like ivory-white with clean cut yellow shoul- 

 ders and bright yellow beard. Lovely in its own 

 right, it combines perfectly with any ®f the pure 

 whites or yellows. The large flowers are rather 

 rounded in form, the stems widely branched and 

 3 feet in height. A real charmer! 



SYLVIA MURRAY (Norton, '44) 



Each 75c; 3 for $2.00 



Derived from Great Lakes crossed with Shining 

 Waters, lighter in color than either of the parents 

 and with the silvery smoothness of pale blue silk. 

 Enormous flowers, 40-inch stems, altogether a 

 grand blue Iris. HM AIS, 1946; AM, 1949. Shown 

 on page 29.
