ivn^iNmcru. ] 0n g slender leaves. Flowers 
large and of deep golden yellow. A fine 
variety for cutting. The requirements for

ed irises. 35c; 3 for 70c. 
MORNING SPLENDOR, ££££& 
36-inch. 25c; 3 for 50c. 
DAnRP The blending of yellow and laven- 
rALMtc. (jgj. j n t be standards, the flush of 
blue on the fine rosy purple falls, and the

which ranks it high. 35c; 3 for 70c.

Pil diccim a It is going to be very hard to 
ruMJOiwA. improve on this seedling for a 
pure white of great size, fine form and heavy 
substance, this last a most important factor 
in white irises. These qualities, with its 
vigor and its tall branched stems account for 
the rating of 96 given it. 50c; 3 for $1.00. 
Sir Michael 
DAvr> nc cm The Spanish word for sun- 
^ u L>e >ul. beam was given this seed¬

lemon chrome, a bright clear yellow. 36-inch.

branches. The standards are deep glisten¬ 
ing rose, the broad thick textured falls are 
of deep maroon. $2.50. 
SACRAMENTO This new S » a n t plicata, 
s/WrfKAMfciN '-'th 0U gh related to San Fran¬ 
cisco and of comparable size and habit, is 
absolutely distinct from anything previously 
introduced. Its large flowers have a white 
ground, the standards heavily edged red 
purple, the falls reticulated with the same 
color. The prominent orange beard, unusual 
in plicatas, lights up the flowers in a most 
attractive way. 75c; 3 for $1.50. 
caki niP/~r» This derivation of Gaudichau 
i/UN uict7 VA and 221 Capitan is identical in 
color with the former and in size and shape 
with the latter. Its immense blooms are of 
deep velvety blue-purple. Stems 46-inch. 50c. 
c A N FRANCISCn Tal1 stems, branching 
hAN rKAlNLliV^u. j ow a nd w i d e like a 
candelabrum, carry large white flowers, of 
which both standards and falls are distinct¬ 
ly edged lavender. In size, shape and sub- 
stanoe, there is nothing to approach it 
among the older plicatas, only the color pat¬ 
tern tells us it should be classed with them.

erican introduction of 1927. Similar to Los 
Angeles but with wider blue edging. 50c.
