NEW IRISES FOR 1936 - Co ntinued 
CHINA MAID (Milliken, 1936) 
This was the outstanding pink’ iris in our experimental 
garden last year. It possesses all the good qualities of a 
perfect flower and elicited unbounded praise from all 
who saw it. China Maid is a very large flower of heavy 
substance and excellent shape, with well-rounded falls, 
wide haft, large domed standards, and grows on a 40-inch 
stem. The color is a most intriguing blend of pink and 
golden bronze with just a suggestion of lilac. The falls 
are a mallow pink, flushed with lilac and blended and 
faintly edged with bronze. The haft is beautifully veined 
with golden bronze. The standards are an enchanting soft 
lilac pink, luminously suffused throughout with shades, of 
copper. The beard is an inconspicuous buff yellow. A 
decided fragrance adds its touch to this altogether 
charming iris. $20.00 
CHINA BOY (Milliken, 1936) 
A sister seedling of China Maid, it possesses the same 
good qualities of size, shape, and texture, but is an 
entirely different color. The standards are Vernonia Purple 
flushed with Daphne Red shading to copper-bronze at the 
base. The falls are deep Dahlia Carmine, enriched toward 
the haft with Claret Brown. The large rich bronze-red 
flowers on tall well-branched stems make China Boy a 
striking iris. $10.00 
MOUNT CLOUD (Milliken, 1936) 
When Dr. Everett, President of the American Iris Society, 
visited our garden in the spring of 1934, he saw Mount 
Cloud as a seedling, and was impressed with its beauty. 
We are pleased to dedicate this iris to Dr. Everett in 
appreciation of his service to the Society. 
Mount Cloud is a tall, stately, blue-white iris with a 
finish of satin. The form of the flowers is idealistic in its 
perfection. The edges of the broad rounded standards 
meet and hold their position. The falls also are broad and 
round. The flowers are beautifully placed on widely 
branched stems over sixty inches tall. This is a superb white 
iris. In form, in texture, and in poise, it is unlike other 
California white irises. $ 10.00 
OLD IRONSIDES (Milliken, 1936) 
Here is a stunning new bronze that commands attention. 
The standards are golden yellow flushed at the tips with 
a bright daphne pink and deepening at the base to a 
bright copper gold. The falls are dahlia carmine in the 
center shading to copper-bronze at the edge. Beard deep 
chrome. The flowers are very large with semi-flaring falls, 
and are carried on four-foot well-branched stems. Blooms 
in midseason. 
We are indebted to Mrs. Ray Enright, of Warner Brothers 
Studios, for so aptly naming this outstanding iris. $ 10.00
