SCHREINER’S IRIS GARDENS 
INDIAN HILLS (Grant 1937) M. 37". 
A rich true-purple, somewhat similar to Magenta in color 
but deeper, and, incidentally, about three times as large. 
Blooms are of good substance and of fine oval form. A 
thrifty grower and good propagator. When this variety 
gets down in price it will be in heavy demand for massing, 
since it makes a gloriously rich clump of a color which has 
unusual carrying power. 75c; 3 for $1.75 
INDIGO BUNTING (Ayres 1934) M. 34". 
One of the leading blues for landscaping. In shade it is 
half-way between a medium blue and a violet. The color, 
which is uniform thruout the flower, is very rich, carrying 
well. Indigo Bunting possesses attractive form with slightly 
flaring falls. 25c; 3 for 50c 
INSPIRATION (Stevens 1937) ML. 38". 
This was one of the most interesting seedlings we had in 
our test beds last season. A development from New Zeal- 
land, it is a harmony of rich colors. Glistening light car¬ 
mine or rose madder, it represents a particular color tone 
without counterpart in any other iris. A self of very fine 
size and good branching stems. At times in the garden it 
seemed to carry in the distance as a very deep pink. $7.50 
ITASCA (Kleinsorge 1934) ML. 34". 
Rich amethyst-purple of fine form and carriage. 
$1.00; 3 for $2.25 
JASMANIA (Ayres 1936) M. 38". 
For perfection of form, this copious, full petaled flower 
rates high among the yellows. The color is a rich tone of 
banana yellow with a brilliant orange beard. The color is 
enhanced by a shadow of pale buff near the heart of the 
flower. Tall and distinguished in carriage. One of the finest 
yellows; in all ways excellent. $4.00 
JEAN CAYEUX (Cayeux 1931) L. 34". 
An outstanding iris in the copper section — the Dykes 
Medal winner in France in 1931. This full-petaled flower 
with its slight suggestion of a frill, has a pleasing grace and 
opulence of form. Its novel tones of light havana brown 
with a lustre of golden biscuit-tan show up at their richest 
in the slanting rays of the early morning sun. 
35c; 3 for 75c 
JEB STUART (Washington 1932) ML. 36". 
A very well-groomed flower of fine military bearing; in 
color an intense velvety red-brown entirely without vena¬ 
tion and with a rich orange beard. A very high class iris. 
30c; 3 for 55c 
JELLOWAY (Parker 1936) ML. 42". 
One of the deeper toned of the newer yellows. An iris 
of good size and substance, lovely oval form, and excellent 
branching. A great garden iris because of its fine stem, 
and clear color. $2.00 
JOYCETTE (J. Sass 1932) M. 36". 
A truly great red. Its nicely branched stems often carry 
two or three open blooms at the same time. Joycette is 
one of the largest in its color section and of a deep, glowing 
crimson color, being practically a self. We consider its 
clean-cut styling unsurpassed by any of the reds. 
50c; 3 forT$1.00 
JUNALUSKA (Kirkland 1934) EM. 36". 
Essentially a red iris, but, unlike other reds, blended by 
an infusion of gold and copper about the throat. A splendid 
regal sort that wins a great deal of admiration. $1.00 
KALINGA (Kleinsorge 1934) M. 36". 
Subdued cream (sometimes almost white) with generous 
flaring form, and ideal height and branching. A truly out¬ 
standing iris that should be in every garden. 
50c; 3 for $1.00 
KING JUBA (H. Sass 1931) M. 36". 
A variegata several times as large as any in existence a 
few years ago is rich burnished-yellow and velvety garnet- 
red King Juba. A prolific bloomer. 25c; 3 for 50c 
KING MIDAS (Mead 1928) E. 32". 
Bright gold glows from the heart of this warm golden- 
brown blend. A very distinctive iris of rounded clean-cut 
form; especially effective in the garden clump where it is 
always a glowing mass of color. Do not overlook this in¬ 
teresting iris. 25c; 3 for 50c 
K. V. AYRES (Ayres 1932) ML. 38". 
A giant iris of a pale silvery grey color, beautifully iri¬ 
descent. A variety of little landscape value but a gem for 
the connoisseur’s collection. 35c; 3 for 75c 
LADY PARAMOUNT (White 1934) EM. 38". 
A noble, exquisitely poised, large primrose yellow. Ex¬ 
cellent form with full, broad standards and broad, semi- 
flaring falls. The silken texture gives this flower a soft, 
translucent glimmer. Tall stems, gracefully branched. A 
very fine light yellow. 60c; 3 for $1.25 
LAGOS (Pilkington 1937) L. 36". 
Extremely late flowering, large, leather-textured bloom. 
Standards iridescent cream-white pearl with richer cream- 
yellow falls. This soft cream iris is a splendid glistening 
foil for some of the more vivid colored iris brethren. Ideal 
for garden groupings. $2.00 
LA LORRAINE (Ayres 1940) ML. 33". 
A collaboration of two, three or more colors unexpectedly 
assembled yet so smoothly and artfully combined the effect 
is a most pleasing soft pastel blend. The main color is 
fawn with an overlay of coppery pink, falls lightly tinted 
heliotrope or lavender mallow. The smooth finish of the 
chamoise-like substance blends imperceptibly to suffusion 
of gold at the throat. Not tall, moderately branched, its 
gleaming crystaline silver iridescence carries as lovely cop¬ 
per pink; good sized blooms. Rigid standards, semi-flaring 
falls recalling K. V. Ayres in form. $15.00 
LEGEND (Wareham 1932) M. 36". 
A vast improvement over the old iris Cardinal. A giant 
gold-bearded purple with perfect candelabrum branching. 
25c; 3 for 50c 
LIGHTHOUSE (Salbach 1936) L. 34". 
A most unusual coalition of colors, a clear old rose to 
rose-red light bicolor with a bit of coppery suggestion. A 
torch-like center of yellow sends slithering streams of gold 
from the heart of the flower. Large, well rounded flowers, 
good substance and smoothly textured. $3.50 
LILAMANI (J. Sass 1938) M. 38". 
Striking new blue-black, dusky yet richly glowing. The 
blooms are large with broad, thick velvety falls. Sturdy 
stalks, very tall. A free growing, imposing development in 
our violets. $3.50
