KENWOOD IRIS GARDENS 
FOREWORD 
There are various means of advertising that have their value, 
however satisfied customers are the best advertisers in any business. 
We have been prompted by this theory in our dealings with our 
clientele, and results have proven its value. 
Instead of issuing a new descriptive catalog this year, we thought 
that a list featuring reduced prices would prove of greater interest. 
The attractive new varieties that previously have only been admired, 
are now so priced that iris lovers do not hesitate to give them a place 
in their gardens. Where mass planting and color effect is desired, the 
favorite standard varieties, now at their lowest price level, can freely 
be used. We have a number of last year’s catalogs that will be mailed 
on request. 
Unavoidable circumstances have delayed the issuing of this list, 
but we trust it will still be of interest. It is our intention to issue a 
complete catalog next year, with accurate descriptions of the different 
varieties. 
The new hybrid Hemerocallis (Day Lilies) are attracting wide¬ 
spread attention. We have prepared a descriptive list of many of the 
new varieties, that differ enough as to color tone and blooming season 
to be of interest to garden lovers. 
More than 100 varieties of better peonies are grown at our garden 
and listed in color groups in our revised 1934 Peony list. Both of these 
lists will be sent on request. 
NEW INTRODUCTIONS 1933-’34 
At the end of the season last year, we purchased stock of three fine 
seedlings from Mr. John Dee Wareham, who has been hybridizing for 
a number of years. A few of his introductions have been placed on 
the market at high prices. It was his wish that these varieties go out 
at a reasonable price, so that they may have a wider distribution. 
All are sturdy growers on strong stems and have splendid substance. 
The flowers are an improvement over any named variety we have 
seen, and they also have carrying color in the garden. Iris experts were 
very favorably impressed by their beauty this year. The blooms 
measure 4 to 5 inches from tip to tip. 
CADMIA (M. 30")—Standard Light primrose yellow, erect and domed, 
deepening in color at the base; Falls are 2" wide, a tone darker, with 
a bright golden beard and deep canary reticulations at the haft. A 
lovely clear yellow, almost a self and undoubtedly the best and 
largest yellow of its height.$7.50 
CLAIRE de LUNE (L. M. 40")—The large, smooth textured flowers are 
borne on strong candelabra-like stems. A clear light bluish lav¬ 
ender self, with a deeper flushing in the center of the falls. Arching 
standards and broad drooping falls make it distinct in form. A 
deep red gold beard fading to white enlivens the center of the 
flower, and the white haft has dull olive brown reticulations....$5.00
