KING JUBA (H. P. Sass ’30) We read that Juba was an ancient king of the Numidians. What a 
sensation his namesake would have made, could his dusky tribe have glimpsed him! One of 
the largest and most desired of the variegatas, with a clean-cut color contrast. The S. are 
gold,- the F. deep velvety red, gold edged. The blooms are large, on fall stems. 38". H.M., 
A.I.S. '32.3 for $2.25/ $1.00 
K. V. AYRES (Ayres ’32) The most endearing of Dr. Ayres’ earlier irises. A happy blend of soft 
buff and light blue with a pink underglow. ‘Cream and yellow lose themselves completely 
in the lavender, giving a most uniquely finished flower." The stems are excellently branched. 
44". H.M., A.I.S. ’31.$6.50 
LADY GAGE (Gage ’34) A satisfactory white for massing in the garden, because of the free- 
flowering qualify and the rapid increase. The medium sized blooms have a delicate pink 
flush when first opening. 30". 3 for $5.00/ $2.00 
LADY PARAMOUNT (White ’33) Supreme in our affections, supreme in the iris world among 
the soft primrose yellow seifs, you stand, Lady Paramount, in your matchless beauty! Your 
extra large, mangificently formed flowers of firm, silky texture are proudly carried on tall, 
widely branched stems. You will long continue to captivate all beholders. 44". H.M., 
A.I.S. '32. $10.00 
LARGO (Ash. ’31) In music, a largo movement is restful; this iris affords a happy relaxation among 
the more brilliant colors. Much like Henri Riviere in the blending of yellow, mauve and pink, 
but with better form. Late. 36". 3 for $3.50/ $1.50 
LOS ANGELES (M. M. ’27) An extra large plicata, giving a pure white appearance at a little 
distance. Tall and frosted. You’ll want it when you see it, but try it only in a dry location. 
42". $0.60 
LOST LADY (Rich. ’35) This lady would seem rather too good to lose! Another plicata, that has 
the domed S. heavily feathered with lavender-blue, and the flaring F. narrowly edged 
with the same. 38".*. $5.00 
LUCREZlA BORI (Schr. ’35) When the curtain arose on the 1935 iris stage, Bori stepped into 
immediate prominence, and her career since has been meteoric, as the prima donna 
of all existing yellows. One of the darker shades of yellow, with all the petals de¬ 
lightfully frilled and ruffled; the tone is intensified by the rich beard. It is said to be 
the tallest and the largest of any existing yellows, and to have the heaviest substance. 
The most talked of iris by the audience at the annual meeting last June. Once heard, 
never forgotten; once seen, always remembered. 42". $22.50 
LUX (Cay. ’31) A startlingly vivid color combination. The S. are bright old gold, suffused with 
apricot; the flaring F. are raspberry red with a golden sheen. 36". C.M., S.N.H.F. $1.50 
MAGI (Sturt. ’33) A captivating, pinker Dolly Madison. Crisp in coloring, this light blend does 
not fade in the sun. Form, texture and substance are all good. Early. $3.50 
MAGNETAWAN (Kirk. ’36) Another of Dr. Kirkland’s coppers, not as rosy as Timagami, but 
taller. We thought that the underlying tone of this iris made it the brightest of the 
the group. We saw this at its peak; the originator prefers the earlier one, Timagami. 
$ 10.00 
M. A. PORTER (Lap.-Gage ’31) Ma Porter’s richly gowned in deep blue velvet, even darker 
than Gaudichau, a nd later in blooming. 3 for $1.40/ $0.65 
MARGARET ANNE (Wmsn. ’33) What — five girls in a row ready for a party? and with Ma 
Porter as a chaperone! Margaret has chosen a brick red frock with a chrome yellow boy’s 
necktie, to make her distinct from the others. 30". 3 for $1.50/ $0.65
