SCHREINER’S IRIS GARDENS 
BLACK BEAUTY (Kirkland 1934) M. 30". 
A large iris of classic perfection of form and uniform 
indigo-tone. Very lustrous and velvety. 35c 
BLACK VALOR (Nicholls 1938) L. 33". 
One of the very newest creations of the “black” group. 
Done in veiled tones of very rich violet-black or royal pur¬ 
ple with a velvety gloss. The beard is practically the same 
color. Unveined haft, free blooming, not tall. $6.00 
BLACK WINGS (Kirkland 1930) M. 34". 
A popular iris of deepest midnight blue overlain with a 
frosty black sheen. Rich and lustrous, bespeaking a long 
Dominion heritage. Ideal for foreground plantings. 
25c; 3 for 50c 
BLUE DIAMOND (Nicholls 1938) EM. 38". 
We feel this is going to be one of the most sought after 
delicate blue iris. Classical in form, the sculptured falls 
flare with delicate grace and just a breath of fluting. The 
flower is rigidly and crisply compact and very weather 
resistant. Of purest cerulean blue the ethereal blooms have 
a silvery, sparkling glow that makes them delicate and at 
the same time vividly fresh looking. The flower reminds 
one of a bloom that has just opened after a shower with all 
its pristine loveliness unsoiled. Lemon colored beard, locust 
scented, tall and finely branched; a splendid iris, $6.00 
BLUE MONARCH (J. Sass 1933) ML. 44". 
A finely branched specimen in the light blue color class. 
The blooms are large and full and of a beautifully clear 
tone of blue. Because of its easy growth, and splendid 
height this iris is steadily gaining adherents. Few California 
originations are as hardy. 25c; 3 for 50c 
MOROCCO ROSE 
BALMUNG (H. P. Sass 1939) ML. 38". 
One of the striking new developments of the yellow pli- 
cata class. A subtly colorful, quietly bizarre development. 
Balmung is about the largest of this striking color class. A 
large, well rounded flower with both standards and falls 
yellow with heavy, though clean, plicata markings of 
brown. Sharply contrasted, it resembles some rare tropical 
orchid. Tall, firm, well branched bloom stalks. $15.00 
BELMONT (Williams 1938) M. 36". 
Of marked individuality. A frilled, rich, wonderfully 
clear medium deep blue. In form it is quite distinct; com¬ 
bined attractively with the frilling we have wide, semi- 
flaring falls. This is one of the most attractive new iris in 
the blue class. Belmont and its lighter colored counterpart, 
Waverly, represent two very distinctive additions and are 
most worthy new developments. Fine bloom and stem 
characteristics. $5.00 
BEOWULF (Schreiner 1936) E. 32". 
Rich velvety maroon unmarred by any haft venation. 
The coppery brown of the standards is repeated in a soft 
margining on the unusually broad falls. The rich orange 
beard completes the glowing ensemble. $100; 3 for $2.25 
BLACKAMOOR (J. Sass 1932) M. 38". 
A massive iris of black-violet with a uniformity of color¬ 
ing to which even the deep-blue beard contributes. Almost 
black when it opens, it lightens to a rich violet shade. The 
long buds are most exciting. 25c; 3 for 50c 
BLUE PETER (White 1936) L. 37". 
A rich blue-purple bicolor, near self, very velvety falls 
and deep standards; haft a little narrow though solidly 
colored, beard a dull, deep gold. Unique in this dark class 
for its very rich blue tone. Pyramidal in profile, superbly 
branched. $1.00; 3 for $2.25 
BLUE TRIUMPH (Grinter 1932) ML. 42". 
Smooth textured light blue with fine stems and place¬ 
ment. Plant this where partial shade will help its delicate 
color. 35c 
BLUE VELVET (Loomis 1929) ML. 34". 
A deep blue bicolor of great individual beauty, gloriously 
rich in texture. On established clumps we have had beauti¬ 
fully branched stalks well above the foliage. 
25c; 3 for 50c 
BONANZA (J. Sass 1939) ML. 34". 
The yellow plicata class has two main divisions: those 
iris with heavy yellow backgrounds and those with cream 
backgrounds. Bonanza belongs to the group with the 
deep yellow background. The entire flower is flecked with 
bold dashes of cinnamon-tan dots and veins on the yellow 
background. Rounded flowers; standards more heavily col¬ 
ored; branched stem and hardy. $5.00 
BON SO R (Connell 1938) M. 38". 
Deep velvety dark aniline blue — remarkably free from 
purple or violet overtones and extraordinarily rich in tex¬ 
ture. As especially clean-cut iris of rounded semi-flaring 
form and very large size. Fine form and bright color. No 
haft venation mars the chaste perfection of this intense 
ultramarine self. The beard is bright gold; branching ideal.
