JEB STUART (Washington 1932) ML. 36". 
A very well-groomed flower of fine military bearing; in 
color an intense velvety red-brown entirely without vena¬ 
tion and with a rich orange beard. A very high class iris. 
$3.50 
JELLOWAY (Parker 1936) ML. 42". 
One of the deeper toned of the newer yellows. An iris 
of good size and substance, lovely oval form, and excellent 
branching. A great garden iris because of its fine stem, 
clear color, and ability to stand heat. $7.50 
JERRY (Lapham 1933) ML. 33". 
A medium-large iris of unusually red color — almost ruby 
in garden effect. Blooms are clean-cut, flaring. $1.00 
JOLLY ROGER (Nicholls 1934) M. 36". 
A clean-cut vivid bicolor of ultra-marine and azure. 
75c 
JOYANCE (K. Dykes 1929) M. 36". 
This sister seedling of the famous Gudrun is an ivory- 
cream of unusual height, and like Gudrun, of exceptional 
vigor. Since cream is needed more than any other color 
for its blending effect in the garden picture, use this iris 
generously — especially for background plantings where its 
tall stems suit it ideally to the role. 75c 
JOYCETTE (J. Sass 1932) M. 36". 
A truly great red, which this year for the first time is 
down to a comparatively moderate price. Its nicely branched 
stems often carry two or three open blooms at the same 
time. Joycette is one of the largest in its color section and 
of a deep, glowing crimson color, being practically a self. 
We consider its clean-cut styling unsurpassed by any of 
the reds (see page 22). A distinct improvement over 
Dauntless or Indian Chief. $1.00 
JUNALUSKA (Kirkland 1934) EM. 36". 
Essentially a red iris, but, unlike other reds, blended by 
an infusion of gold and copper about the throat. A splendid 
regal sort that wins a great deal of admiration. $5.00 
KALINGA (Kleinsorge 1934) M. 36". 
Subdued cream (sometimes almost white) with generous 
flaring form, and ideal height and branching. A truly out¬ 
standing iris that should be in every garden. 
$2.00; 3 for $5.00 
KHORASAN (H. Sass 1937) M. 30". 
A uniquely styled iris, possessing falls with horizontal 
flaring. Standards dull gold, domed; falls auburn, flushed 
violet. $10.00 
KING JUBA (H. Sass 1931) M. 36". 
A variegata several times as large as any in existence a 
few years ago is rich burnished-yellow and velvety garnet- 
red King Juba. A prolific bloomer. Unquestionably one of 
the best in its color group. 25c 
KING KARL (J. Sass 1925) EM. 36". 
Soft fawn-apricot with deeper sandings and dottings 
throughout the flower. An interesting novelty. 20c 
KING MIDAS (Mead 1928) E. 32". 
Bright gold glows from the heart of this warm golden- 
brown blend. A very distinctive iris of rounded clean-cut 
form; especially effective in the garden clump where it is 
always a glowing mass of color. Do not overlook this in¬ 
teresting iris. 25c 
KING TUT (H. Sass 1926) ML. 32" 
A flashing chestnut red of medium size. A past favorite 
that is still an eye-arrester in the garden because of its fine 
color. 25c 
KLAMATH (Kleinsorge 1929) M. 36". 
Bronzed purple of excellent form and huge size. Lacks 
only vividness of color to be in our First Hundred. Never¬ 
theless it is a mighty fine iris. 25c 
K. V. AYRES (Ayres 1932) ML. 38". 
A giant iris of a pale silvery grey color, beautifully iri¬ 
descent. A variety of little landscape value but a gem for 
the connoisseur’s collection. $1.50 
LADY PARAMOUNT (White 1934) EM. 38". 
Soft primrose yellow of large size and quiet styling. A 
W. R. Dykes derivative with tall stems and silken texture. 
$3.50 
LEGEND (Wareham 1932) M. 36". 
A vast improvement over the old iris Cardinal. A giant 
gold-bearded purple with perfect candelabrum branching. 
40c 
L1LAMAN1 (J. Sass 1938) M. 38". 
Striking new blue-black, dusky yet richly glowing. Except 
for some veining at the haft, very much a self. The strong 
stems are well branched. $15.00 
LODESTAR (Hall 1925) M. 32". 
Another color gem —small, sharp, intense: standards 
vivid yellow; falls velvety brown. Unsurpassed for bril¬ 
liancy and “tone” in the garden. 25c 
LOS ANGELES (Mohr-Mitchell 1927) M. 38". 
Snowy white throughout save for a slight stitching of 
cerulean at the haft and at the base of the standards and 
a beard of soft yellow-gold, Los Angeles is an exquisitely 
sculptured beauty with the finest satin sheen —• tall, vig¬ 
orous, well-branched — a classic iris that is a cornerstone 
of any collection worthy of the name 25c 
LUCRE (White 1936) M. 40". 
Another acquisition in the strong yellow class: in tone 
so deep as to approach orange-yellow; tall, well branched 
and wiry stemmed. $5.00 
LUCREZIA BORI (Schreiner 1935) VL. 40". 
A giant, late-blooming deep yellow. The fine domed 
standards, delightfully ruffled and fluted, are a particular 
feature of this iris. The long falls, deeper in color than the 
standards, have an olive reflex toward the beard, which 
pales soon after the flower opens (excepting in wet weather). 
The bloom is of good substance and the bright beard adds 
to its attractiveness. Exceptionally tall and finely branched. 
$ 10.00 
LUX (Cayeux 1931) M. 36". 
A finely-formed iris of a rich apricot tone with falls 
flushed raspberry red. Unfortunately it fades in the sun 
35c 
MABEL TAFT (Wareham 1932) M. 38". 
One of the race of giants — a blue bicolor with velvety 
falls. 35c 
MAGENTA (Cayeux 1927) L. 30". 
Rich self-colored magenta or red-violet with a smooth 
enameled sheen. Flowers are well-formed. Splendid for 
landscaping. 25c; 3 for 50c
