BLUE TRIUMPH » Grinter 1934 
PAULETTE (Millet 1930) M. 40". We have again accumu¬ 
lated enough stock of this fine variety to list it. A giant iris 
of clear lavender blue, well branched and of strong growing 
habits; the texture is heavy and withstands heat and rain. 
Combine with Violet Crown for a lovely picture. $ .50 
PERSIA (Ayres 1929) M. 42". We believe this is now the 
best liked of all blends as it does well in all climates and 
holds its colors well. S. smoky blue; F. rich purple blue in 
the center, shaded lighter at the edge. The many flowers 
are borne on superbly branched stalks. The bloom has a 
silken texture and is aptly named, as its coloring is that of 
a rich Persian rug. Highly recommended. 
$ .40; 3 for $1.00 
PHEBUS (Fa-buss) (Cayeux 1930) M. 38". A lovely lemon 
yellow self of the type so valuable in the landscape picture. 
The flowers are well rounded and smooth, of fine clear color¬ 
ing and most gracefully poised on the stalks. An exceptionally 
meritorious kind. $ .50 
PINK SATIN (J. Sass 1930) M. 42". The clearest pink we 
have seen. A pink self with fine large flowers on widely 
branched stems. It has a rich satiny sheen which suggested 
its name. Not a deep pink, but medium tone of pure color. 
$ .40; 3 for $1.00 
PIUTE (Thomas 1937) M. 38". One of the best irises we 
flowered last year. It is the nearest approach to real red 
that we have seen. It is a pure rich red self with no trace 
of blue or purple in it. The flower is well rounded and flares 
in a manner similar to Numa Roumestan, but it is of very 
heavy texture and smooth finish and more brilliant in color. 
A truly beautiful iris. $15.00 
PLURABELLE (Cayeux 1933) M. 40". An exquisite blend 
of striking appearance. S. wide, golden yellow, F. plum red, 
softer at edges of petals. The tall stalk has many branches 
with several flowers open at one time. $3.00 
C.M., S.N.H. F. 
PRESIDENT PILKINGTON (Cayeux 1929) M. 46". A 
very large flower of a glorious blend. S. lustrous buff with 
faint blue suffusion; F. wide and flaring, lavender blue with 
a wide buff margin. A magnificent iris, vigorous and sturdy 
and outstanding as to color. $ .40; 3 for $1.00 
C.M., S. N. F. Special Award, Paris, 1931. 
PURPLE GIANT (Gage 1933) M. 32". Enormous dark blue 
flowers of fine form and finish, with many flowers open at 
one time. A splendid variety for massing. $1.50 
PURISSIMA (Mohr-Mitchell) M. 44". A large well- 
formed pure white iris of good shape and perfect form. Not 
hardy in all climates, but we have wintered it successfully 
for a number of years, with slight protection. $ .30 
RED COMET (McKee 1936) M. 38". A large, deep copper 
red self with mahogany undertone. The blooms have fine 
form and good substance. S. domed, F. semi-flaring, well 
rounded and of lustrous deep velvet, lit up by a deep gold 
beard. Very profuse bloomer and nicely placed on a well 
branched stalk. $ 10.00 
H.M., A.I.S., 1935.
