CARL SALBACH 
Gold Imperial (Sturtevant). Chrome yellow 
throughout except for the orange beard. Rare 
finish, texture and form. Hon. Ment. A. I. S. 
.25c; 3 for 50c 
Gold Top (Salbach 1931). Rich old gold stand¬ 
ard set off by falls that are red violet edged 
old gold. The style arms and beard afford 
another touch of gold. Blooms early and 
continues all through the season. Tall and 
well balanced. A consistent fall bloomer in 
California. 42".40c; 3 for $1.00 
Grace Sturtevant (Bliss). Standards dark red 
brown with rich velvety falls that are still 
darker, being almost black at the tip. A deep 
orange beard that makes this flower one of 
the most conspicuous in the garden. Most 
outstanding, and very valuable to breeders, 
being one of the parents of California Gold. 
.60c; 3 for $1.50 
Happy Days (Mitchell 1934). A real triumph 
in yellow breeding which bids fair, in time, 
to become the most popular iris in the United 
States. An immense clear yellow most easily 
described as a yellow El Capitan, although 
in established plantings the bloom will be 
slightly larger than those of the latter. 
Perfectly branched, with each stalk car¬ 
rying seven or eight massive blooms. Color, 
clear pinard yellow, with the falls being a 
shade deeper than the standards, and the 
beard an attractive orange yellow. Unusual 
glistening finish. 
Although deriving its size from its Dykes 
parentage, the use of a clear yellow seedling 
as the other parent has eliminated any ten¬ 
dency towards flecking and fading. 
Blooms measure 7*4" from top to bottom, 
and 3 1 / 4" across the falls. Height 40". Flow¬ 
ers through the season. 
We venture to predict that Happy Days 
will remain sensationally outstanding as long 
as has the remarkable Frieda Mohr. Due to 
the heavy sale, we advise ordering early. See 
picture on page 3.$17.50 
Helios (Cayeux). One of the really fine yel¬ 
lows. A big, luminous pale yellow, almost as 
large as W. R. Dykes, but a bit paler in color. 
Fine form and finish, with delicate light 
brown lining on the falls which, however, is 
so faint as to be almost invisible when the 
flower is open. A most vigorous grower, free 
blooming. 3 feet. Cert, of Merit, and Special 
Prize as one of the three best iris of 1929, 
S. N. H. F.$1.00; 3 for $2.50 
Hidalgo (Mohr). A very large lavender blue 
of unusually broad shape. The stalks carry 
so many blooms open at one time that it is 
comparable to a spike of gladiolus. Particu¬ 
larly fine for floral decorations, as under 
electric light it becomes pink as Frieda Mohr. 
Midseason to late. 48".35c; 3 for 70c 
Hoogiana. Regelia. Soft uniform blue of per¬ 
fect finish. Fine..35c; 3 for 70c 
Ibpall. Part oncocyclus, as indicated in the 
rounded shape and the veining of the deep 
red violet flowers.35c; 3 for 70c 
Indian Chief (Ayres ). One of the best medium 
tall reds. Bronzy violet standards, with falls 
of dahlia carmine. Excellent indoors as it 
shows up unusually well under electric light. 
A good doer everywhere, and should be in 
every garden.60c; 3 for $1.50 
Indian (Sass). A most remarkable iris. Tan, 
slightly flushed rose. Ruffled.50c each 
Ingenieur Winssinger (Denis). A beautiful 
russet brown bearing some resemblance to 
El Tovar, and also to Le Correge. Rich in 
color and of fine finish. Both standards and 
falls carry out the velvety brown tones of 
the iris, with the falls being slightly the 
darker.$3.50 
Iris King. Golden yellow, with velvety garnet 
falls. Frequently blooms in fall in Califor¬ 
nia.20c; 3 for 40c 
Irma Pollock (Sass 1931). A velvety carmine 
with lighter margin. Heavy substance and 
fine flaring form. Fine garden effect. 30". 
.75c 
Jacqueline Guillot (Cayeux). Well formed 
blooms of pure lavender blue with lustrous 
surface. Stalks stout and well branched. 
Fragrant and a mass of blooms. One of the 
best regardless of the low price.20c; 3 for 40c 
Jean Cayeux (Cayeux). Beautiful blending of 
Havana or coffee brown, with golden glint. 
Considered one of the very finest iris ever 
imported from France.$12.50 
J. J. Dean ( Dean ). Standards light violet, with 
falls deeper velvety blue purple. Large and 
tall.20c; 3 for 40c 
Joycette (Jacob Sass). A very bold plum-red 
iris. An improvement over Red Wing, being a 
larger and a brighter flower. Fragrant. 42". 
. $10.00 
Jubilee ( Sass). Buff, heavily spotted dark cop¬ 
per. Low growing.20c; 3 for 40c 
Jumbo (Sass). Broad standards of blue violet, 
with falls shading to red violet. Orange 
beard. Free blooming, sturdy.. .20c; 3 for 40c 
King Juba (Sass). Big and bold, with yellow 
standards and falls of Indian lake. Medium 
tall, a rapid increaser, and free flowering. 
. $1.00 
King Karl ( Sass ). A beautiful frilled plicata. 
Standards light pinkish cinnamon, and falls 
a suffusion of cream and purple. Fragrant. 
Low growing.25c; 3 for 50c 
King Midas (Mead 1929). One of the brightest 
of the bronze toned iris. Standards golden 
buff and falls iridescent garnet brown. Lit 
by golden orange beard and golden haft, 
from whence the name was chosen. A heavy 
flower of fine finish and substance. One 
of the parents of Sunol, the fine new Mohr- 
Mitchell yellow blend.$1.00; 3 for $2.50 
King Tut (Sass). One of the very brightest of 
the “red” iris on the market, producing this 
effect by its golden standards and beard, and 
its bright Hessian brown falls. Valuable to 
breeders due to its bright coloring 50c each
