SOUTHERN BELLE (Washington 1937) An attractive rose-pink 
blend with tall graceful stalks and great garden value, giving a note 
of pink which we find very needful in color planting. The rosy pink 
standards are arched and well held together, the velvety rose-pink 
falls are semi-flaring with slight veining at the haft. The center 
of the flower is buff, and the beard rich yellow. 40 in. 
SUB-DEB (Washington 1937) A perfectly formed flower of clear 
light blue with extremely firm substance and smooth satiny finish, 
standards are clear pale blue, very arched and domed, the falls are 
semi-flaring and of slightly deeper tone. The styles are pure blue 
and white, yellow beard. An iris of great charm and refinement. 39 in 
TEKOA (Nesmith 1937) A rich blue-purple self with strong- 
heavy substance and excellent branching. The standards are very 
deep blue-purple, well arched and domed, the flaring falls are of the 
same shade, but appear darker on account of their rich velvety sub¬ 
stance, slight bronzy reticulations in the throat. Styles blue, and 
deep yellow beard tipped with blue. A fragrant very late variety 
that gives great extension of the bearded iris season and has 
splendid garden value. 38 in. 
THE BISHOP (Washington 1937) One of the largest and most 
decorative dark irises that I have ever seen. A smoothly finished 
long flo-wer of intense Bishop’s purple. The standards are large and 
well domed, the large long falls are slightly flaring, but of very 
firm substance and texture, the styles are purple, and the deep yellow 
beard gives an added brilliance. Regal in color and well branched, 
this - fragrant iris gives a note of splendor that is outstanding. 38 in. 
VALIANT (Sturtevant-Mitchell 1937) A very richly colored flower 
of peacock iridescence. The domed standards are a blending of blue 
and old gold with mid-rib of blue. The slightly drooping falls are 
brilliant wistaria-violet with faint old gold edge and a touch of 
bronze just below the rich orange beard. The crisp firm flowers are 
borne on 1 tall well branched stalks. This iris is a seedling from a 
cross made by Miss Sturtevant in the garden of Professor Mitchell 
and is one that I am most pleased to help introduce. 38 in. 
WHITE PRINCESS (Washington 1937) The finest pure white, 
late Intermediate that I have ever seen. The standards are pure 
white, closely domed and beautiful in , form, the falls are semi- 
flaring, of the same pure white. Styles white, and full medium 
yellow beard. The perfectly formed flowers of very firm substance, 
borne on lowly and well branched stalks give the effect of Carrara 
marble, an enchanting iris. 25 in. 
SIBERIAN IRISES 
BA BET (Nesmith 1937) A most unusual and lovely Siberian of 
pale lavender, flushed mauve-pink, with yellow markings at the 
throat. A smoothly finished flower, and a new break in color. Mr. 
Salbac.h of California was greatly impressed by the beauty of this 
iris, and pronounced it “One of the discoveries of our trip”. Stock 
limited. Net. 
MOONSPRITE (Jennings 1937) An ethreal blossom of silvery 
mauve overcast with lilac-pink. The tall graceful flowering stalks 
often carry ten blooms to a stalk, thus giving it a long flowering 
season. A dainty and lovely Siberian.
