ENCHANTRESS (Hall, '54) Each $6.00 



Delicate parchment color, faintly flushed with pink, especially in 

 the standards. The central area of the falls has an overlay of amber 

 and the beard is brilliant orange. Unlike any other of Mr. Hall's fine 

 things, we singled it out as his best seedling in the spring of 1950. It 

 is an extra late Iris, with heavy stems and an enamel-like finish to the 

 large flowers. 34 to 36 inches. See page 24. 



ENVOY (Deforest, '48) Each $1.50; 3 for $4.00 



."Xmong the most deeply colored of new Irises, the falls practically 

 black but with a hint of brown-purple. The beard is brilliant orange 

 on a solid blackish haft. Standards are bright and silky with a flush 

 of reddish purple. A very impressive thing on 34-inch stems. 



EVELYN BYE (Kleinsorge, '56) Each $15.00 



A ver)' lovely harmony of cocoa, blue, violet and old gold. Something 

 different in the family of delightful blends from this master hybridizer 

 of elusive tints. Falls are especially wide, flaring, and are slightly ruf- 

 fled. Large flowers; height 35 inches. 



EXTRAVAGANZA (Douglas, '44) Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 



Almost white standards shaded cream at the base, the falls a medley 

 of copper, red-lavender and deep violet, with a violet flush down the 

 center. On the order of Wabash, but is more of a blend especially in 

 the falls. HM AIS, 1944; AM, 1947. See page 42. 



HAPPY BIRTHDAY 



EBONY ISLE (Deforest, '49) Each $1 .50; 3 for $4.00 



Rich, smooth, well formed flowers of deepest purple, in some 

 lights a red-black. There are no markings of any kind to mar 

 the sleek, even richness of the heavy falls. The very dark, thickly 

 set beards are tipped burnt orange. In spite of its darkness it 

 glows with color. 33 to 36 inches; late. HM AIS, 1950. 



ELMOHR (Loomis, '42) Each $1 .00; 3 for $2.50 



Winner of the Dykes iMedal in 1945, this giant Iris has consistent- 

 ly led all others in point of sales popularity. And no wonder! 

 The great blooms are daintily ruffled, of a silky texture and re- 

 markable substance. The stems are well branched and at least 

 3 feet tall. Of a rich red-violet color, it is well illustrated on 

 page 38. HM AIS, 1942; AM, 1943. 



EL PASO (Kleinsorge, '49) Each 75c; 3 for $2.00 



This seedling of Tobacco Road crossed with Goldbeater is a 

 richer, brighter, more lively golden brown than the famous 

 "tobacco colored" parent. It has a luminous, metallic finish 

 which gives it exceptional richness and a glowing quality which 

 most browns seem to lack. Standards are closed and the broad 

 falls flare gracefully. A large flower of medium height— about 

 32-34 inches; good branching. See page 21. HM AIS, 1950. 



ELSA SASS (H. Sass, '39) Each 60c; 3 for $1.50 



An entirely new shade of yellow, clear sulphur, with a greenish 

 cast in its depths and a near white blaze near the haft. The 

 blossoms are of good size, rounded in form and slightly frilled 

 at the edges. 3 feet tall. HM AIS, 1939; AM, 1944.
