TARANTELLA (Sass) 
A "pink piicata with long hanging falls and wavy standards. 
The flowers are larger than other varieties of this type and are 
carried on tall well-branched stems. A profuse bloomer. $1.00 
TENAYA (Essig) 
To quote from an iris grower in Massachusetts: "Although 
introduced in 1933 the fact that it won the Silver Medal for being 
the best stalk in the show at Rockefeller Center in 1937, is a strong 
proof of its continued standing as a fine iris. It is a vigorous plant 
coming through each winter with its courage undimmed. Its branching 
is low and it is always covered with bloom; the color effect is 
blackish-reddish-purple; one of the most satisfactory plants in the 
garden. 3}^ feet.” 50c,- 3 for $1.00 
THEME (Lothrop) 
The large flaring blooms are bronze tan flushed and veined with 
violet and changing to a deep grey, tinted and veined with purple. 
Tall and well branched. 3 l/ 2 feet. 60c,- 3 for $1.50 
THE BLACK DOUGLAS (Sass)

ple with a dark beard. The texture is fine and the falls very velvety. 
$ 2.00 
THE RED DOUGLAS (J. Sass) 
Another new iris to our garden, being a mid-west origination of 
recent introduction. It is described as: "Tall (40 inches), well 
branched, and of fine form with a general color effect of bright red. 
The flower is a deep rich red brightened by its showy orange beard. 
Brown haft markings.” Very scarce and in great demand. 
"The Red Douglas is the best by far of the decidedly red-purples. 
In my judgment, it is one of the best irises introduced in recent years. 
It is large, rich in appearance and grows unusually well." Comment 
from a Virginia iris critic. $15.00 
THEODOLINDA (Ayres) 
One of the new large hardy plicatas. The wide falls are particularly 
beautiful. The penciling is in a very blue shade of lavender.

A sister seedling of "Over Here,” this iris has flowers larger than 
the others in this group and stems that average about 3 feet in height. 
The flowers have broad round petals of beautiful pearl white 
blended at the edges of all petals with lemon yellow. This gives a 
charming effect. Exact parentage is lost, but "Top Hilly” is one- 
fourth oncocyclus. $3.50 
TREASURE ISLAND (Kleinsorge) 
A splendid addition to the ever-growing list of fine large yellow 
irises. Introduced only last season, Treasure Island comes to us 
highly recommended and described as follows: "A truly gigantic 
flower of bright, clear, rich yellow. Tall stems, not a trace of Dykes 
blood in its parentage, hardiness beyond question.” We might add 
that a flush of white at the center of the haft adds life and a clean- 
cut appearance to the flower. $7.50 
UKIAH (Essig) 
This fine dark iris in deep tones of red and brown has falls of the 
richest velvety texture seen in any flower, and standards somewhat 
paler, that resemble washed silk. The beard and center are of old

the name of a California tribe of Indians. 3 feet. 75c; 3 for $2.00

flower is perfect and the stem could not be better. We have measured 
many stems over fifty inches tall and flowers five by five inches. One 
rhizome planted in 1935 bloomed four stalks 52 inches tall the 
next year. $2.50 
WABASH (Williamson) 
Generally recognized as the finest iris of its type in commerce. 
The standards are white and the falls are a bright violet with a 
definite white margin. A strong grower with large flowers and

A noted iris authority says: "Wabash is by all odds the best 
amoena — a very important contribution from the Williamsons.”
