LADY PARAMOUNT 
MARY GEDDES (Washington) 
The latest of the Dykes Medal winners. It has held its popularity 
through the years since it first bloomed because of its unusual blend 
of soft salmonish pinks and light reddish tones harmonized by the 
ever-useful lavender shades. It is not a very large nor tall iris but 
adapts itself well to flower arrangements and makes an unusual and 
attractive mass of color in the garden. It is quite dependable. $1.50 
MAUNA LOA (Berry) 
A tali, large flowered well-branched iris of decided merit. The 
reddish flowers are very conspicuous in the garden. It is of Mes¬ 
opotamia parentage and flourishes in California. 4 feet. 
50c; 3 for $1.00 
MELDORIC (Ayres) 
The demand for this iris is such that dealers have difficulty in 
maintaining a sufficient supply. The deep blue-black flowers with 
their rich golden brown beards add a deep note of contrast to the 
garden picture and yet in spite of the deep rich color, Meldoric 
possesses a luminosity unequalled by most other dark toned irises. 
$1.25; 3 for $3.00 
MIDGARD (Sass) 
An outstanding iris greatly admired by all who see it. The color 
combination is yellow, deeply flushed with rose pink. The large, 
perfectly formed flowers are borne on 3 foot stalks. 
35c; 3 for 75c 
MISSOURI (Grinter) 
A little darker than Sierra Blue and not so blue in tone as Shining 
Waters and Early Mass. There is considerable purplish-brown in 
the haft. The newly opened flowers have good substance and the 
falls flare nicely. $4.50 
MODOC (Essig) 
This remarkable iris has a velvety depth of color that is unsur¬ 
passed. It gives the effect of being almost black, although in reality 
it is a very deep rich purple mixed with shades of dark brown. 
Very large flowers and a striking iris. 2Ti feet. 35c; 3 for 75c 
MOHRSON (C. G. White) 
For many years iris hybridizers throughout the country tried, 
without results, to produce a William Mohr seedling. Mr. C. G. 
White was the first to meet with success in this endeavor, and has 
given us Mohrson. Being a cross of William Mohr by a pogon iris, 
Mohrson is but one-fourth oncocyclus. It is a charming and unusual 
iris, more vigorous than its parent, and showing unmistakably some 
of the desired oncocyclus characteristics. 
The flowers are simply enormous, with standards a rich, clear, 
deep violet with a cockled and varnished surface and ruffled edges. 
The color in the falls is effected by close veins and is a beautiful 
shade of violet. 9. 1 A feet. $5.00 
MOUNT CLOUD (Milliken) 
There is something about this iris that makes it stand out as different 
and superior to most white irises. It is particularly clear and clean 
in its whiteness,- the surface of the large petals is smooth and polished. 
The veins in the haft accent the unusual purity of this superb iris. 
It blooms on stems more than fifty inches tall and the flowers are five 
inches tall by five inches wide. $7.50 
NATIVIDAD (Mitchell) 
One of the most refined irises we have ever seen. A warm cream 
self lighted in the center with a glow of soft yellow and sprinkled 
as with tiny beads of glistening dew. Natividad possesses all the 
grace and distinction that its name implies. 3 feet. $1.50; 3 for $3.50 
NEON (Salbach) 
A tall variegata with bright, well formed standards and red- 
purple falls. It received considerable praise from eastern iris en¬ 
thusiasts last year. $4.00 
NEW ALBION (Essig) 
A sister seedling of Easter Morn, but quite distinct in form, color 
and substance, and also producing quite a different garden effect. 
The flowers are pure waxy-white with fine clean cut standards and 
nicely-formed faring falls. 50c,- 3 for $1.00 
NURMAHAL (Nicholls) 
A striking flower with bronze brown standards and blackish- 
brown falls. The standards are large, well-shaped, and overlaid 
with a hint of violet. The velvety falls flare widely and have a red- 
violet undertone. 3 feet. $1.50 
OLD IRONSIDES (Milliken) 
An iris to use where a brilliant clump of color is desired. A com¬ 
bination of copper and gold and carmine flowers carried on tall, 
strong stalks. This variety is very generous with its flamboyant blooms 
so will never disappoint those who plant it for a certain garden 
picture. $7.50
