MOUNT CLOUD 
ETHEL PECKHAM (Williamson) 
A coppery, red-toned iris which has received a great deal of 
favorable comment. It has been called one of the reddest of red 
irises. It is rich and dark with yellow in the haft, veined brownish- 
purple. The standards are the same color as the falls except that 
the falls have a velvety texture. 75c; 3 for $2.00 
EVOLUTION (Cayeux) 
Another outstanding achievement of the noted French breeder. 
The coppery bronze standards are wide and frilled, the flaring falls 
are a slightly deeper shade marked in the center with a brilliant 
rose-blue blaze. An indescribably lovely combination of colors. 
3 feet. 25c; 3 for 50c 
FAIR ELAINE (Mitchell) 
This is one of the most outstanding of the new introductions which 
we saw last year. It is a decided break in breeding and a delight¬ 
fully beautiful creation. The standards are a very soft cream, almost 
white, and the falls are a deep, rich yellow. This combination of 
cream and yellow, accented by a showy orange beard, is one of 
the most charming to be found in any iris. 
Large flowers of good substance on tall well-branched stems. A 
cross of California Gold and Happy Days. 3 feet. $15.00 
FAIR ENOUGH (C. G. White) 
Is Fair Enough indeed ! It could hardly be excelled as a medium- 
toned blue iris. The broad, crisp, sparkling petals rest on perfectly 
branched stems 48 inches tall. It has a long blooming season, being 
one of the earliest of the large flowered varieties to bloom and it 
continues to bloom past all believing. It is one of the bluest toned 
irises, rating with Shining Waters and Early Mass. $1.00; 3 for $2.50 
FERRIC (Milliken) 
For deep velvety richness in a glowing deep red iris, Ferric has 
no equal. And yet, in spite of the depth of color, this iris is a strong 
landscape variety. The large, handsome flowers with wide hanging 
falls and dome-shaped standards are carried on three-foot, well- 
branched stems and the plants are of unquestioned hardiness. An 
introduction of outstanding merit. 
CFor those who like a technical description we might add that the 
standards are light Aster-purple, flushed with brown and the falls 
deeper and redder than Bordeaux. The beard is orange-brown,- the 
flower is slightly fragrant, and the blooming perioa is from mid¬ 
season to late. $7.50 
FIESTA (C. G. White) 
Needs no description for those who have seen it. It is not an 
iris that one forgets. The standards are like sparkling copper and the 
falls are copper with tints of rose-purple. The hafts are bright 
yellow and the beard is brilliant orange. The unopened buds 
resemble burnished copper. It is a large flower on a 38-inch stem. 
Not only is it a rare color among irises, it is also strikingly beautiful. 
See illustration on page 15. $3.50 
FIREFALL (Essig) 
If you have ever seen the famous firefall in Yosemite Park, this 
iris will bring back pleasant memories. It has the red of glowing 
coals with a prominent golden yellow beard, and will add a warm 
note to any garden. The flowers are of good size carried on stems 
of medium height. 30 inches. 25c; 3 for 50c 
FRIEDA MOHR (Mohr) 
This iris is so outstanding and such a universally dependable 
performer that it should be in every garden. It is a luminous pink 
bi-color of exceptional size, with the standards a pale lilac and the 
flaring falls a deep lilac rose. The flowers have a clean, well-bred 
appearance and are at once admired for their charming form and 
poise. Blooming period from midseason to very late. 3)4 feet. 
See illustration, page 17. 25c; 3 for 50c 
GOLD LACE (Lothrop) 
A seedling of Mme. Durrand having the tall, slender graceful stem 
of its parent and also the characteristic habit of bringing forth 
flower after flower from the same branch until one wonders if the 
supply will ever be exhausted. The standards are a bright old gold 
and the flaring old gold falls are smoothly overlaid with rosy lavender. 
The whole flower is covered with sparkling gold dust. 3 feet. 
50c; 3 for $1.00 
GOOD CHEER (Sturtevant) 
In the spring of 1934 we were in Miss Sturtevant’s garden and 
saw Good Cheer in bloom as a seedling. It was the center of attrac¬ 
tion, and stood out prominently among hundreds of other irises 
because of the clean brilliance of its color. The standards are a 
clear yellow, made all the more brilliant in contrast to the falls 
which have a bright yellow ground color thickly veined with red. 
The flowers are of good size and excellent form, and are carried on 
graceful 38-inch stems. 
One of the leading iris breeders of the country asserts "Good 
Cheer is the finest true variegata I have ever seen." $1.50 
GUDRUN (Dykes) 
This is a hardy, large flowered white iris from England that has 
shown up to particular advantage in the colder climates. The flowers 
are exceptionally large and in our particular locality seem out of 
proportion to the rather short stems. This fault is evidently not 
apparent in many sections of the country. 50c; 3 for $1.00 
HAPPY DAYS (Mitchell) 
One of the new yellows of exceptional size, a solid uniform clean 
color of medium tone, and strong vigorous growth. Reports from all 
parts of the country praise Happy Days for its beauty and its out¬ 
standing performance. 3)4 feet. 75c; 3 for $2.00
