 deep red-tangerine beard. The flowers have a thickness of petal

PINK PLUME (Schreiner, '5T) Each $1.50

 Dreamcastle, which it somewhat resembles. Because of its clean 

 color and extra "carrying power," we think it is one of the best 

 introductions of the past few seasons. Height 3 feet. HM AIS, 

 1952; AM, 1954. 



PINK SENSATION CDav/d Ho//, '48; Each $1.50 



From the garden of the world's foremost breeder of pink Irises 

 we selected this new creation when it first flowered in the spring 

 of 1946. True delicate light pink, without any influence of lilac 

 or salmon tones, and sporting the famous tangerine or oran<^e- 

 red beard, it is just the kind of pink Iris you have been wanting. 

 PINK SENS.ATION is a large flower, full and rounded in forni, 

 with laciniated petal edges. Extremely early— one of the verv 

 first of the tall bearded to come into flower. Height about 33 

 inches. HM AIS, 1950; AM, 1952. Shown on page 9. 



PINNACLE (Sfevens, '49) Each $1.50; 3 for $4.00 



With standards of clear sparkling white and well formed biond 

 falls of clean primrose-yellow this is really something new in Iris. 

 Bred in New Zealand; it is a good grower with perfect branching 

 on 3-foot stems. HM AIS. 1949; AM, 1951. Illustrated on page 41. 



PORT WINE (Sass, '50) Each $3.00 



Deep wine-red standards shot with white, the falls broad and 

 rounded with an almost solid border of wine-purple. The color 

 is sharp and vivid— a quality missing in many plicatas with less 

 heavy pattern. Height 3 feet. HM AIS, 1950; AM, 1953. 



PRAIRIE SUNSET (H. Sass, '39) Each 75c; 3 for $2.00 



All that has been said about this gorgeous Sass creation is true, 

 but it simply has to be seen to be realized. The blendings of 

 peach, apricot, rose, copper and gold are so well done that one 

 is at a lo.ss to describe it adequately. A fine big flower that will 

 give vou a thrill every time you look at it. HM AIS, 1937; 

 AM, i941; Dykes Medal, 1943.
