The World's Finest Tall Bearded Iris • Continued 
Sir Launcelot —32 in. A new Sass introduction with 
Hazlenut standards and claret brown falls, creating a 
lovely rich golden-brown effect. 7.00 
Sir Michael— 48 in. ONE OF THE WORLD'S FINEST 
IRIS, of indescribable beauty. S—clear heliotrope; 
F—rich red-purple suffused coppery brown; but no 
description can do it justice and all attempts of the 
artist to reproduce it in a color plate have been met 
with failure, as no color plate produced of it has 
even remotely disclosed its beauty. It must be 
SEEN. Sold a few years ago for $50. This is the 
first year I have been able to accumulate a sufficient 
stock of it to place it within the reach of all. . .25 
Sitka— 48 in. EARLY. VERY FRAGRANT. In making 
a very critical comparison of all White Irises last 
flowering season, I was compelled to class Sitka with 
Gudrun for first honors. The flowers of Sitka were 
almost as large as Gudrun, but of purer white color, 
on taller stalks and better placement. The flowers 
are of fine form and good texture, with straight hang¬ 
ing falls that give a marvelous garden effect. Add 
to all its other good qualities an exquisite fragrance, 
and it leaves nothing to be desired in a perfect 
white Iris. It is the most underpriced Iris in this 
catalogue this season. . 1.00
