Regelia-cyclus Hybrids 
These very fine hybrids are the result of crosses between the Regelia and Oncocyclus Species, and are among the 
most beautiful of the Iris family. They are brilliant in color, prominently veined and striking in appearance. In the 
latitude of New York, I recommend growing them in cold frames, because, while the rhizomes are entirely hardy to 
zero weather, the plants are benefited by light winter protection, as they begin growing very early and the tops may 
be somewhat injured by late frosts. They can, of course, be given the necessary protection by putting a sash over 
them, with some dry leaves underneath. They flower during May in the latitude of New York. 
Artemis —28 in. One of the darkest and richest colored 
Iris in cultivation. The color is deep rich crimson, 
veined and peppered over the entire flower, so that 
the creamy white ground just barely shows through. A 
large flower of perfect shape. 2.50 
Asporina —Perfectly shaped flowers of uniform ruby-red. 
A new variety just imported from Holland, where it 
was given an Award. Cannot be sold until released by 
the United States Department of Agriculture, probably 
in 1936. 
Camilla —A hybrid of Paradoxa, with velvety standards 
of violet-blue; F—brownish-purple veined over a 
grey ground. 3.75 
Charon —15 in. A beautiful and distinctive Iris. S—an 
attractive shade of reddish-brown, shaded bronze; 
F—bronze, veined brown. 1.50 
Clytemnestra —A marvelously rich dark-colored variety, 
and perhaps the finest of this group. The standards and 
styles are a uniform shade of violet-purple. In the centre 
of the falls is an intense, velvety, blackish-purple spot, 
that blends into a plush-like beard of exactly the same 
color. This spot radiates out into brilliant veining of the 
same color over a clear white grou nd. 3.75 
Flora —S—rich ruby-red-veined. F—brown and yellow. 
Given an Award of Merit in Holland. 1.75 
Hebe —A handsome variety, with falls heavily veined and 
dotted violet on a pearl-grey ground; S—suffused soft 
lavender and veined violet-blue. . 3.50 
Hecate —20 in. Given an Award of Merit in Hol¬ 
land. S—lilac-rose,- F—brown veined on a grey 
ground. 2.00 
Hermione —32 in. Very handsome and beautifully mark¬ 
ed; very similar to Susiana but with somewhat more 
deep violet red in it. Reminds one of an improved 
Susiana, with the ruggedness of the Tall Bearded 
Iris. 1.75 
Isolda —Mahogany, veined old-gold. Extra fine. Given 
an Award of Merit in Holland. 2.50 
Leucothaea —Received Awards in London and in Hol¬ 
land. Large flowers of soft violet, densely netted and 
veined deep violet-blue. 5.00 
Lucia —Received an Award in Holland. Uniform ruby- 
red flowers with a steel-blue beard. Handsome. 1.50 
Luna —20 in. This is one of the most handsome of this 
group in the light extreme, as Artemis is in the dark 
extreme. In Luna the white ground predominates and 
the widely spaced red purple veins stand out in 
strong contrast over the entire flower. See color illus¬ 
tration.. 3.50 
Nemesis —32 in. Similar to Hermione, but darker, due to 
the veining being closer. Has the elongated form of 
Korolkowi. An excellent new variety. 1.50 
Parthenope —S—lilac; F—lilac veined and netted on a 
white ground. 1.50

shaped flowers of Bishop’s purple, veined madder- 
violet, with the haft veined seal brown. The falls are 
especially rich and velvety. 2.50

heavily veined purplish mauve and with a conspicuous 
glossy dark brown spot; S—silvery-white, veined 
purple-violet. Given an Award of Merit by the Royal 
Horticultural Society of England. 1.50 
Saturn —Large flowers of excellent substance, that remind 
one somewhat of Susiana. Beautiful deep purple vein¬ 
ing on a grey ground. 1.00

greyish green ground. 1.50
