Don Quixote 
DON QUIXOTE 
A very large flower resembling in many 
ways the old Quaker Lady although a great 
improvement in color, size, and habit of 
growth. A strong grower producing flower 
stems that average 42 inches. The stand¬ 
ards are deep lavender, the falls violet with 
a deep yellow suffusion over all. Grows 
very rapidly and produces a remarkable 
number of flowers. 25c.

Considered the crowning achievement of that 
great Iris hybridist. Bliss. Rich brown reds 
combine with plush crimson to form a gi¬ 
gantic flower with broad massive standards 
of bronze and falls of deep velvety maroon 
purple. Blossoms are produced in great pro¬ 
fusion and combine all of the desirable fea¬ 
tures anyone could ask for in an Iris. 60c. 
El Capltan 
EL CAPITAN 
Probably the finest flower of this type. A 
huge blossom heavy in substance carried on 
a candelabrum type of stalk each of which 
produces a large number of perfect blooms 
with flaring falls. Color is a light violet or 
manganese violet. Very free flowering and 
the added advantage of a very extended sea¬ 
son. Should be in every garden. 60c. 
The Iris garden can be begun inexpensively. 
With its nature of rapid multiplication the in¬ 
troductions of this year are available for you

PINK JEWEL 
An exceedingly “warm” pink that has 
proven its popularity in the garden. The 
standards and falls are a bright pinkish lilac 
with the falls overlaid with glowing tour¬ 
maline pink. One of the few satisfactory 
varieties in this shade and particularly bril¬ 
liant under electric light. Increases rapidly 
and splendid for massing. An ideal sort for 
cutting. 50c.
