KALINGA 



As it appeared in our display garden last spring. A soft 

 yet bright mass of creamy ivory, it proved to be not 

 only a magnet of attraction among our own visitors, but 

 also one of the most admired new ones reported on by 

 iris critics in the East and Mid-west last season. 



On the cover we present a natural color photograph of 

 this novelty . . . turn back to it, then reflect for a moment 

 upon the garden effect of such a flower when seen in 

 a well-established clump. 



Kalinga is described in detail on page 11, and may 

 be included in the novelty collection as set forth on 

 page 1 3. 



Says the Avierican Ins Society 

 Bulletin for February, 1936 . . 



"When It first opens, and for a 

 considerable time thereafter, has 

 the beautiful coloring of the peony 

 Solange, a faint pinky-tan suffusion 

 or perhaps a pinky cream. A warm 

 cream might describe it. . . . It is 

 most beautiful, the haft yellow, 

 the beard gold, a large flower."
