Few more striking flowers exist than the orchid-like amoenas. Especially beautiful are seven-toned Shah Jehan, luminous rose and 
cream Marcpuita, pink-tinted Rene Cayeux, and this season’s great addition, Wabash with fresh snow-white standards and rich velvety 
blue falls.

The general scarcity of blue flowers makes nature’s bounty to the iris in this respect the more unusual and readily accounts for 
the immense popularity which blue irises enjoy. We nominate for special mention clear-cut Sensation, cornflower blue, the lighter 
Shining Waters, an enchantingly beautiful iris, Paulette and El Capitan two giants of the iris world, and those shimmering, crystalline, 
silvery blues, the unbeatable Gloriole, stalwart Pale Moonlight, and the lovely new Exclusive.
