PROF. S. B. MITCHELL (Cayeux) 
This was selected by Prof. Mitchell on his visit to the Cayeux 
gardens near Paris in 1931. It was released in this country only 
recently and is receiving high praise. The flowers are very large 
and of a uniform rich warm claret-purple or deep wine color of the 
most fascinating texture. Perfect form and strong 3Ti foot stems. $4.00 
PURISSIMA (Mohr-Mitchell) 
This is a splendid pure white. It is exceptionally large, vigorous, 
well branched, and of good form and substance. Particularly 
recommended for the milder climates. 4 feet. 35c,• 3 for 75c 
RADIANT (Salbach) 
A vivid copper-red that promises to outdo all competitors for 
sheer brilliance. Of medium height and size, this newcomer has 
standards of burnished golden bronze and falls of glowing copper- 
red. Evidently this iris has a decided tendency to bloom in the fall 
but trial has not been over a long enough period to definitely 
establish this fact for all parts of the country. $15.00

describe. Heavy apricot beard. Vigorous and hardy. feet.

size and shape of the latter. 46 inches. 35c; 3 for 75c 
SAN FRANCISCO (Mohr-Mitchell) 
Tall stems branching low and wide carry the large flowers of white 
distinctly edged with lavender blue. A superior variety. 44 inches. 
35c; 3 for 75c 
SAN GABRIEL (Dean) 
We consider this one of the finest irises in cultivation for the 
milder climates. While not recommended for the East, where its 
exceptionajly early growth often gets caughtjn a late freeze, for 
Southern California gardens this iris is ideal. The large flowers are 
a lustrous lavender flushed with rosy mauve and have a decided and 
pleasing fragrance. 
San Gabriel comes into flower very early in the season, usually 
by the first of March, and continues blooming for many weeks. It is 
particularly vigorous and is the tallest iris we grow. We have 
actually measured stalks 6 feet high. The foliage is green and beau¬ 
tiful all year. 35c/ 3 for 75c; 12 for $2.50 
SENSATION (Cayeux) 
Magnificent clear blue flowers of flaring form and fine substance 
on tall, powerful stems. 4 feet. 35c; 3 for 75c 
REBELLION (Kl einsorge) 
From Oregon comes this glowing blood-red introduction of last 
season. It has not yet bloomed in our garden but promises to be a 
welcome addition to our collection. "In Rebellion we have a flower 
of faultless form and habit, vivid coloring and excellent substance. 
The standards are suffused with bronze and rose, the falls are a livid 
velvety blood-red.” $7.50 
RED DOMINION (Ayres) 
A stunning rich ox-blood red that has received unqualified praise. 
The falls are slightly frilled and flaring with the deep velvety texture 
of a fine oriental rug. 3 feet. 75c/ 3 for $2.00 
RED FLARE (Milliken) 
Falls ox-blood red, slightly deeper in the middle than at the edges, 
flaring; standards brownish-red shading to lustrous antique brown. 
Produces many flowers of medium size. 3)^ feet. 50c; 3 for $1.00 
REDGLOW (Essig) 
The falls of this stately iris are flaring and of a rich red velvet, set 
off by a golden beard. The standards are a somewhat paler shade 
of red harmonizing beautifully with the richness of the falls. It is a 
stunning thing and shows off to particular advantage when planted 
near some of the beautiful new yellows. 3 feet. $1.00; 3 for $2.50 
ROSY WINGS (Gage) 
Not yet having bloomed this newcomer to our garden, we can 
quote its description as follows: "Among the two or three top-most 
introductions seen for the first time last year. A blend of rose and 
copper, with excellent form, flaring falls, large size, and 40 inch 
stems. One of the few new colors developed in iris in recent 
years.” $12.00 
ROYAL SALUTE (Milliken) 
This is quite distinct in form and color. It is one of the few good 
dark blue-purple irises. The petals, both standards and falls, are broad 
and as the flowers are on tall stems the beauty of the falls is easily 
seen. The main points of its excellence are that it has a tall well- 
branched stem so that the flowers are not crowded, and the flowers 
which have good substance seem to be the bluest of any of the 
so-called blue-purple irises. See illustration page 14. 
$1.50; 3 for $3.50 
SACRAMENTO (Mohr-Mitchell) 
A giant plicata of the San Francisco type but having dots and 
reticulations of reddish brown instead of lavender. The ground 
color is creamy white. Flowers are large and well shaped on tall, 
well-branched stems. 40 inches. 35c; 3 for 75c
