COPPER LUSTRE 
EASTER MORN 
FRIVOLITE. A very fine French origi¬ 
nation. Medium sized blooms, a lus¬ 
trous shade of lavender pink. Delight¬ 
ful. Mid-season. 24-inch. 
60c; 3 for $1.50 
FRO. A showy, though small variegata. 
Standards bright mustard yellow, falls 
ox-blood red. We have found this iris 
splendid for use in borders, and it 
brightens a garden wherever it flowers. 
Floriferous. Mid-season. 18-inch. 
20c; 3 for 40c 
GAYNELLE. This splendid intermed¬ 
iate is most outstanding, due particu¬ 
larly to the fact that it is the very 
earliest of the yellows, blooming even 
earlier than Soledad, which it clearly 
supplants. Deeper in color, larger, 
and of better form than the latter. Very 
free bloomer. Makes a solid mass of 
pale gold at blooming time. 20-inch. 
25c; 3 for 50c 
GEORGIA. To the early pinks what 
Dream is to the late blooming class. 
Soft Cattleya rose that is beautiful 
“pink” in mass. Excellent substance, 
and sometimes blooms in the fall. Very 
early. 28-inch. 20c; 3 for 40c 
GERMAIN PERTHUIS. An enormous 
rich violet purple self with striking 
orange beard. Tall, well branched, 
free flowering with wonderfully smooth 
velvety appearance. Sweet scented. 
Mid-season. 36-inch. 35c; 3 for 75c 
GLOAMING. An early intermediate 
which makes one of. the finest low 
growing border iris we know. Most 
floriferous, and forms a bright russet 
mass of color. Because it increases so 
rapidly, a dozen rhizomes will give 
complete border effect by the second 
season. 18-inch. 
25c; 3 for 50c; 12 for $1.65 
GLORIOLE {Gage). A very fine, large 
light blue. Self-colored. An outstand¬ 
ing variety with extra heavy texture 
capable of withstanding both rain and 
sun. A. M., A. I. S., 1935. Mid-season. 
40-inch. $9.00 
GOLDEN BEAR (Mitchell 1936). This 
attractive clear yellow completes Syd¬ 
ney B. Mitchell’s grand slam of placing 
a leader in each of the types of yellow 
iris. The glistening color of rich gold 
is the finest we have seen in any iris 
in commerce, and it is completely dis¬ 
tinct in color and form from the other 
Mitchell yellows. 
Originally the name “Golden Bear” 
was used for a beautiful Sydney B. 
Mitchell yellow that was never mark¬ 
eted because of its persistent habit of 
blooming with open standards. The 
new variety now bearing the name 
“Golden Bear” is identical in color and 
similar in form to the original “Gold¬ 
en Bear,” but with closed, domed 
standards. See color picture inside 
front cover page. Taller and more 
than twice as large as Pluie d’ Or, 
with color as rich, and clearer. Has 
never shown any tendency to fade. 
Possesses no Dykes blood, and conse¬ 
quently of distinct form of bloom. Well 
branched stalks. Mid-season. 36-inch. 
$7.50 
Carl Salbach • • • 
GOLDEN BOW (Jacob Sass ). A large 
flowered deep yellow intermediate of 
fine form and habit. Considered to be 
the very best of the deep toned early 
blooming yellows. Most attractive and 
decidedly desirable. H. M., A. I. S., 
1936. 26-inch. $1.50 
GOLDEN LIGHT. A beautiful iris, the 
best of the Euphony type. An indes¬ 
cribable, but most attractive blend of 
apricot yellow, cinnamon, light yellow, 
faintly suffused pink and orange. Nice¬ 
ly branched stems, 38-inches tall. H. 
M., A. I. S., 1936. Mid-season. $3.00 
GOLD TOP (Salbach ). A very rich and 
elegant flower with standards of old 
gold that are set off by red violet falls 
edged with gold. The blending of 
colors is most artistic, and is greatly 
enhanced by the style arms and beard, 
which afford another touch of gold. 
Blooms early and continues through 
the season. Tall and well branched. 
A consistent fall bloomer in California. 
Early mid-season. 36-inch. 
25c; 3 for 60c 
GRACE MOHR (Jory 1935). Most cer¬ 
tainly a sensational iris — a William 
Mohr seedling, almost identical in its 
beautiful coloring and delicate veining, 
but on tall, branching, 40-inch stems. 
Reported as completely hardy, and 
the one plant we saw during our trip 
(grown by a New England amateur) 
bloomed as much a standout as any¬ 
thing we had seen. Truly William 
Mohr, grown up. Described as “ex¬ 
ceptionally fine ... a new break in 
breeding,” and “A beautiful violet with 
darker veinings, which I rated . . . 95.” 
Color—pale lilac, veined manganese 
lilac. Forty inches tall with many 
huge blooms—each as large as a flower 
of William Mohr, but appearing even 
bigger, due to the flaring falls. Imag¬ 
ine the color of William Mohr (see front 
cover) in the flaring form of Grace 
Mohr. 
Sold out for the season. Orders 
booked now for delivery next year. 
$10.00 per rhizome—delivery after June 
1, 1938. 
GRACE STURTEVANT. A dark, rich¬ 
ly colored variety that is at the same 
time one of the showiest in existence, 
thanks to as brilliant an orange-yel¬ 
low beard as is possible. Standards 
dark red brown with rich velvety falls 
that are still darker, almost black at 
the tip. Grows slightly taller outside 
of California, but a good doer and an 
outstanding variety anywhere. Very 
valuable to breeders, being one of the 
parents of California Gold. Mid¬ 
season. 30-inch. 25c; 3 for 60c 
As we go to press, we have just learned 
that Radiant produced a fall blooming 
spike in a third California garden this 
past year.
