CROWN PRINCE (Kleinsorge) 40". We consider 
Picador the king of the yellow variegata class, and 
this variety the crown prince which will ascend the 
throne as soon as the price falls to an equal level. 
S. deep orange; F. dark velvety red brown. After 
careful consideration, we have decided this is one 
of the most intriguing varieties we have ever 
grown. Huge flowers. $2.00. 
CRYSORO (Nicholls) 26". The very best early brassy 
gold — some judges state it is the best early bloomer 
of any color. A fine variety for the front of the 
border. H.M., A.I.S. $1.00. ' 
CRUCIBLE (Berry) 36". You will like the odd blu¬ 
ish-grey effect of this flower which is brightened 
by a golden yellow throat and prominent yellow 
beard. 35c. 
DAUNTLESS (Connell) 41". The finest low-priced 
red variety. For those readers of this catalog who 
desire two good reds, we recommend this variety 
and Indian Chief. The color effect is a brilliant 
red bronze—literally a flame in the garden. Dykes 
Medal winner. 75c. 
DAY DREAM (Sturtevant) 40". A charming blend 
of pink hues with a touch of peach and apricot for 
good measure. None other like it. 75c. 
DAZZLER (Williamson) 37" A large, fine, very rosy 
red which has a long carrying range. It is brighter 
in color than Dauntless or Indian Chief. Those 
seeking Iris of red shades cannot afford to pass 
this by. A glorious flower in full sunlight. $3.00. 
DEPUTE NOMBLOT (Cayeux) 48". Once acclaimed 
the world’s greatest Iris. Magnificent with its great 
beauty of coloring, form and carriage. S. copper 
red, flushed golden bronze; F. wide and spreading, 
of a rich shade of claret crimson. Petals seem 
lightly dusted with fine golden powder which 
sparkles in the sunlight. A Dykes Medal winner. 
$1.00. 
DESERT DAWN (Andrews) 42". A very late flower¬ 
ing variety with blended yellow and lavender 
petals. Judges have acclaimed this variety superior 
to Candlelight, which once received the highest 
numerical rating ever given an Iris. Desert Dawn 
certainly deserves a place in every garden because 
of its exquisite coloring. $1.00. 
DESERT GOLD (Kirkland) 35". A very early bloom¬ 
er. An extremely large, finely formed, smooth clear- 
yellow with brilliant gold beard. Although we 
recommend Helios as the best medium-priced yel¬ 
low, this is our second choice. H.M., A.I.S. $1.00. 
DOLLY MADISON (Williamson) 36". One of the 
five best-sellers of all time. If you can’t afford 
President Pilkington which is an improvement, by 
all means get Dolly Madison. Description does not 
do it justice. S. mauvette, shaded yellow at base; 
F. flaring, lilac with a golden tinge and prominent 
bright orange beard. 35c. 
DREAM (Sturtevant) 36". Popular clear rose pink. 
With Morning Splendor, it holds the record of 
greatest number of plants sold. 25c. 
EASTER MORN (Essig) 42". This variety which is 
hardy and Purissima which is tender, are the finest 
white Irises in existence. Flowers are a warm white 
deepened by the golden beard. F. are flaring. Your 
search for a satisfactory white Iris is ended when 
you plant this in your garden. However, for those 
living south of Mason & Dixon line and on Pacific 
Coast, we recommend Purissima as the garden 
white. $2.00. 
ELIZABETH EGELBERG (Egelberg) 45". This vari¬ 
ety and Frieda Mohr are the two best lilac pinks, 
varying in shape of flower but of somewhat similar 
coloring. Once you plant one, you are bound to 
want the other. We offer it at one-tenth of its true 
value. 50c. 
ELOISE LAPHAM (Lapham) 35". There are so few 
good pinks, that we would like to take a whole page 
praising this one which is a very light blush pink 
throughout. One of the fastest multipliers though 
producing very small roots. H.M., A.I.S. $1.00. 
ENDYMION (Sturtevant) 32" Light golden yellow, 
shaded lilac at. edge of petals. Distinctive and un¬ 
usual. 25c. 
ERIN (Mor rison) 42". We consider this our second 
best blue bi-color, with Sir Michael rating first. The 
two are quite distinct and both may be planted in 
your garden. You will not regret adding this one 
to your collection. 50c. 
EUPHEMIA (Lapham) 32" A dark combination of 
black and purple hues, with petals of a velvety tex¬ 
ture reminiscent of rich Oriental rugs. 25c. 
EUPHONY (Sass) 32". Like Clara Noyes, the de¬ 
mand for this brightly blended variety has been 
phenomenal. Its comparatively low price is due to 
the rapidity with which its roots increase. S. ruf¬ 
fled, of mustard yellow, waved and fluted, stained 
with light brown toward the tips. F. are squarely 
held, mustard yellow, flushed with blue in center 
and overlaid soft brown. See the accurate color 
reproduction on front cover. 35c. 
EVOLUTION ( Cayeux) 37". Pale copper bronze, with 
heavily frilled S. F. same, but overlaid blue and 
capped with brilliant orange beard. Truly a fasci¬ 
nating blend, and considered one of the best Irises 
ever imported from France. $1.00. 
FASCINATION (Cayeux) 38" Clear bright pink of 
intense hue. 50c. 
FISMES (Millet) 32". S. cream, deepening to yellow; 
F. soft reddish-lavender with rich orange beard. 
An unusual and attractive combination. 25c.
