Maple Valley Iris Gardens 
DOROTHY DIETZ (Wmsn. 1929) M. L. 
36 in. This clear and beautiful amoena 
attracts much attention. Its standards 
are light chicory blue fading to white 
and its falls are a pure deep pansy vio¬ 
let, making a striking contrast. Strong 
grower and free bloomer. R. 87. 25c 
DOUGLAS (J. Sass 1932) M. 40 in. A lus¬ 
trous blend of heliotrope and violet. The 
large, beautifully formed flowers are well 
carried and the color effect is most 
charming. Strong and hardy. R. 85. 50c 
DYMIA (Shuber 1936) M. 38 in. A large, 
very dark purple self, almost black, with 
a deep blue beard which intensifies the 
coloring. H. M., 1937. R. 88. Hardy 
and floriferous. $3.00 
EASTER MORN (Essig 1931) M. 42 in. 
The almost perfect white—tall, graceful, 
beautifully branched—but not always de¬ 
pendable in this climate. H. M., 1931, A. 
M., 1933. R. 89. $1.00 
E. B. WILLIAMSON (P. Cook 1937) M. 
36 in. This new beauty is of glowing 
coppery red tone—practically a self— 
of most distinct and pleasing color. Its 
perfect form, lustrous silk texture and 
graceful carriage all combine to make it 
an iris worthy of its name. Too new to 
be officially rated, it is a strong and vig¬ 
orous grower. $20.00 
ECLADOR (Cay. 1932) M. L. 36 in. A 
most interesting deep yellow iris from 
France. Of full ruffled form and excel¬ 
lent substance this is one of the best of 
the dark yellows. The deeper yellow 
throat with touch of brown veining seem 
only to give the flower character and 
depth of coloring. Hardy. C. M., France 
and Dykes Medal, 1932. A. M., A. I. S., 
1936. R. 90. $2.50 
EDGEWOOD (Hall 1926) L. 40 in. A fine 
tall deep pink iris, similar in coloring to 
Frieda Mohr but better in every way, 
especially in freedom of bloom. Always 
very much admired in our garden. Per¬ 
fectly hardy. 25c 
EILAH (Loomis 1935) M. 38 in. A large, 
tall yellow self of excellent habits. Per¬ 
fectly hardy and a splendid bloomer. Cool 
and refined in tone. H .M., 1937. R. 88. 
$5.00 
EL CAPITAN (M. M. 1926) M. 40 in. One 
of the largest and finest light blue irises 
in the garden when it blooms, but it is 
not entirely hardy here. It grows well 
but the bloom is sometimes frosted. H. 
M., 1929. R. 86. 25 c 
ELEANOR BLUE (Sal. 1933) M. 32 in. 
Soft companula blue with a flush of 
deeper chicory blue in the center of the 
falls. Very distinct and beautiful in 
color and form. Seems quite hardy. H. 
M., 1936. R. 88. 75c 
ELECTRA (J. Sass-Sch. 1935) M. 38 in. A 
unique and very interesting plicata; 
white with clear blue stitchings changing 
to gold toward the center. Hardy and 
free flowering. R. 88. $2.00 
ELKHART (Lap. 1937) L. 38 in. A new 
and brilliant iris, a deep fiery chestnut, 
red in certain lights, brown in others, but 
always glowing. Large, rounded in shape, 
well branched. Not yet rated. Hardy 
and vigorous in growth. $7.00 
ELLA WINCHESTER (Grinter 1935) M. 
38 in. A deep rich mahogany red, almost 
solid in color even to the smooth un- 
veined haft. A perfectly finished flower, 
individual in form and coloring. Per¬ 
fectly hardy. H. M., 1936. R. 88. $7.00 
ELOISE LAPHAM (Lap. 1932) M. 36 in. 
A delicate shade of orchid pink—very 
clear, cool and lovely. Nicely rounded, 
ruffled flowers are borne abundantly. H. 
M., 1932. R. 87. 25c 
EL TOVAR (H. P. Sass 1933) L. 36 in. A 
gorgeously colored variegata blend. 
Brown and yellow standards with 
black-maroon velvet falls make a rich 
contrast. The standards are brown and 
gold, the falls solid black-maroon velvet, 
backed with yellow satin. A flower of 
marked individuality. Excellent growth. 
H. M., 1932. A. M., 1933. R. 88. $2.50 
EROS (Mead-R. 1934) M. 42 in. A smooth¬ 
ly blended beauty whose garden effect is 
light coral pink. One of the most ex¬ 
quisite colors among the newer iris. Most 
effective when planted among clear light 
blues. H. M„ 1934. A. M., 1936. R. 88. 
$3.00 
ETHEL PECKHAM (Wmsn. 1932) M. 34 
in. One of the most pleasing and gen¬ 
erally satisfactory reds in the garden. Of 
excellent form and carriage this deep 
glowing red iris is a great favorite. H. 
M., 1932, A. M., 1936. R. 88. Excellent 
growing habits. $1.50 
ETHELWYN DUBUAR (Lap. 1938) L. 
40 in. A fine, large, handsome pink iris 
of deep, clear coloring. Much admired. 
R. 84. 35c 
EUOBIA (Wallace 1932) M. 36 in. A 
really fine deep blue purple iris that is 
not as well known as it should be. The 
color is rich and clear, flowers large and 
well formed. Very desirable. $1.00
