Some very fine iris have been recent additions to this satisfying color group. Aubanel and Sandia are two splendid medium pink 
blends of large size and fine substance. With tones more slightly rosy red we have subtly colored Rosy Wings, vibrant Lighthouse, and 
strawberry-red Avondale ... all very fine. Distinctly different and very good is rose and tan blended Matula. Rose Dominion is unique 
because of its fine flaring form, very popular. Carmine rose Evelyn Benson makes an excellent spot of color in the garden. Mrs. Willard 
Jaques is a lovely new iris of a darker blended Aubanel type. Finally, mention must be made of that old reliable variety, Frieda Mohr.

A wealth of magnificent flowers are gathered together in this class. Two of the finest examples are rich, glossy purple Indian Hills 
and magnificent, bronze-purple Directeur Pinelle. Itasca is richly colored and Caballero attracted considerable attention last year by its 
brilliancy of texture. True purple is a comparatively rare color in flowers but we have it in Favori, a vastly improved Magenta with 
extraordinarily fine form. Three older examples that are still among the best in this class are well branched Legend, velvety Red Do¬ 
minion, and rich, glossy Motif.

Without question one of the most distinct iris of last season was that rich brown masterpiece Louvois. Another velvety red-brown 
stalwart is JEB Stuart. Sumptuous mahogany-brown Shirvan remains one of the best. Two new iris in the winish-brown tone are Blen¬ 
heim and Betelgeuse. Beowulf presents a glowing bronze ensemble while Elkhart is a fine example in red-brown contrasts. For all around 
excellence we have regal Depute Nomblot. Grace Sturtevant and Mrs. Valery West remain old standbys.
