Saint Paul, Minn. 
PEACHES, (H. P. Sass, '31). A warm 
and bright blend of peach, apricot, 
and orange. Not so deep in color as 
Clara Noyes, and with more creamy 
markings in the falls. 32 in.. . .50c 
PERSIA, (Ayres, ’29). S. smoky blue; 
F. rich purple blue in the center 
shading to a much paler hue at the 
margin. A beautiful flower with a 
glistening silky texture. Outstanding 
in every way. We highly recommend 
Persia as an ideal variety. 48 
in. .50c 
PEERLESS, (Dykes, ’24). A magnifi¬ 
cent flower of enormous size and bril¬ 
liant coloring. The general effect is 
a rich glowing light mahogany red. 
36 in.3 5c 
PHEBUS, (Cayeux, ’30). Not as deep 
a yellow as Pluie d’Or, but a uni¬ 
form light lemon color. Phebus is 
quite different in form from the other 
light yellows. Flowers rounded in 
form and well poised on tall well 
branched spikes. 36 in. C.M., 
S.N.H.F.50c 
PHOSPHOR, (Shull, ’31). A medium 
yellow self of very heavy substance. 
S. Reed yellow, varying lighter at the 
tip; F. similar to the standards but 
the Reed yellow overlaid with a very 
delicate haze of purple. H.M., 
A.I.S., ’32 . 75c 
PICADOR, (Morrison). 40 in. S. hon¬ 
ey yellow, mustard at throat; F. min¬ 
eral red. This undoubtedly is one of 
the three best yellow variega- 
tas .$1.00 
PINK OPAL, (Sass, 28-12). This is a 
sister seedling of Pink Satin. A fine, 
uniform shade of pink. Tall and 
lovely. 50 in.50c 
PINK SATIN, (J. Sass, ’30). A very 
delicate and smooth mauve of lilac 
pink. While it is not pink, it may 
be considered so for all garden pur¬ 
poses. It is, in my opinion, the near¬ 
est approach to pink; but it still car¬ 
ries some of the purple pigments that 
up to the present time the breeder 
has been unable to remove. We 
highly recommend it as a fine hardy 
Iris. 42 in. H.M., A.I.S., ’31.75c 
PIRATE GOLD, (Wayman, ’31). A me¬ 
dium toned yellow. 3 4 in.2 5c 
PLUIE d’OR, (Cayeux, ’28). The first 
large flowering, dark yellow Iris of 
value put into commerce. A deep 
chrome to cadmium yellow self. Rich 
orange beard. Many branched strong 
firm stems bearing neat pure yellow 
flowers in great numbers. 3 6 in. 
Dykes Medal, ’28.25c 
POTENTATE, (Grinter, ’30). S. amo- 
aro purple; F. blackish red purple 
with artistic wide markings half way 
down on the falls. 48 in.25c 
PRESIDENT PILIvINGTON, (Cayeux, 
’31). A very large flower of excellent 
form and glorious blendings of colors. 
S. pale buff with a faint bluish suf¬ 
fusion; F. wide and flaring lavender 
blue with a buffy yellow suffusion 
paling at margins and yellow vein- 
ing at throat, beard golden yellow. 
A magnificent Iris, vigorous, sturdy 
branching stems. A very sturdy 
grower and rapid increaser with us. 
48 in. C.M., S.N.H.F., and Special 
Prize for one of the three best Iris, 
’31 50c 
QUIVERA, (J. Sass, ’32). One of the 
most admired blends in our gardens. 
A mingling of buff, pink, yellow, 
orange and brown. S. buff pink; F. 
orange vinaceous striped pink vina- 
ceous. At a short distance it gives 
a bright orange effect. H.M., A.I.S. 
’31 .50c 
RAMESES, (H. P. Sass, ’29). The 1932 
American Dykes Medal winner—the 
highest award that can be given any 
Iris. A vigorous, healthy grower in 
all parts of the country and a fast 
increaser and free bloomer. In color, 
pink and rose-toned blend.25c 
RASAKURA, (Wmsn., ’30). S. rose 
purple shading to yellow at base; F. 
heavy velvety Dahlia purple, the mar¬ 
gin slightly paler. 32 in.50c 
RED DOMINION, (Ayres, ’31). Only a 
few years ago there were no tall 
bearded Irises worthy of the name 
red. There are now a number of 
them. Red Dominion is one of the 
finest, but not the reddest, however. 
The standards are rich red toned 
with a slight indication of purple. 
The falls are gorgeously rich, ap¬ 
proaching the oxblood red of Ridge¬ 
way. A velvety, lustrous deep red 
in the sunlight. 42 in. H.M., A.I.S.
