The World’s Finest Tall Bearded Iri 
(Continued) 
Favori— 30 in. GIVEN AN AWARD OF MERIT BY THE FRENCH 
NATIONAL HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY. A new French introduction and 
one of the finest and most brilliant of its color, which is a uniform rich pansy- 
violet. A blue-tipped bronze beard adds to its attractiveness. The standards are 
beautifully frilled and the falls nicely flaring, the flower being of fine form and 
heavy substance.20 
Fedalma— 36 in. An excellent dark “Plicata” on the order of Castor, but even 
larger and better. S—domed, deep, bright red-violet heavily peppered over a 
white ground; F—white, with a feather-stitch edging of bright violet. Perhaps 
the best of the dark “Plicatas”.20 
Feste —36 in. A soft blend of most attractive tints. S—pinkish-lilac, shading to 
yellow at the throat and along the edges; F—a deeper shade, with a yellow 
beard and bronze veining at the throat.15 
Fragonard— 36 in. GIVEN AN AWARD OF MERIT BY THE FRENCH 
NATIONAL HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY. This deep pink toned Iris has 
something about it that immediately attracts attention in the garden. It is the 
special and very unusual and brilliant tone. I do not know anything that I can 
compare it with, but it is entirely different from any other Iris we have and 
produces an amazingly striking garden mass.15 
Frieda Mohr— 42 in. EARLY FRAGRANT. A deep pink Iris of gigantic size 
and perfect form, the huge flowers being seven inches across. FRIEDA MOHR 
IS A CONSTANT PRIZE-WINNER WHEREVER IT IS EXHIBITED 
and has undoubtedly won more first prizes than any other Iris. It has deservedly 
been the most popular pink toned Iris in my collection for several seasons. 
Nothing new has appeared that is equal to it in its class; in fact there is no other 
Iris like it. Besides huge flowers, perfect form, exquisite color, and aristocratic 
bearing, it also has a delicious Locust Fragrance, being one of the most fragrant 
of all Iris. Besides all this it has a very long flowering season, flowering with the 
earliest and continuing to flower with the latest of this group. Sold a few years 
ago at $25.00 for a single plant, it is now within the reach of all flower lovers. 
See illustration.20 
Frivolite —36 in. A most attractive and brilliant SHRIMP-PINK, with a flush 
of soft yellow at the throat. Shrimp-pink is a most unusual color tone in any 
flower and Frivolite is one of the best Iris of this color. See color illustration

Genevieve Serouge— 42 in. EARLY. GIVEN A SPECIAL AWARD BY THE 
NATIONAL HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY OF FRANCE for the best three 
new Irises of the year. A glorious new Iris of French origin in an exquisite blend¬ 
ing of soft pastel shades. A flower that it is impossible to describe or illustrate, 
but the following inadequate attempt at description may give some slight idea 
of its great beauty. The perfectly domed and beautifully frilled standards are 
mainly clear, soft olive-buff. The falls are soft lilac, blended with flax-blue, bor¬ 
dered the color of the standards. The flowers are of huge size and perfect form. 
A FIVE STAR VARIETY now offered for the first time at a modest price. .25 
Giant Baldwin —42 in. Giant flowers of bright blue, that over-shadow all 
others in its class. 8 to 16 huge flowers to a stalk.20 
Gilead— 42 in. VERY SWEET FRAGRANCE. HONORABLE MENTION 
AMERICAN IRIS SOCIETY. A very handsome buff blend, being nearly the 
same color as Jean Cayeux, but in a different form and taller. This is one of the 
most underpriced Iris in this book for such an exquisite beauty.25 
Gleam— 42 in. AN UNSURPASSED SKY-BLUE, the color being uniform 
throughout. Extra fine large flowers of perfect form, heavy substance, smooth 
satiny texture, delightful color, and a prodigious bloomer. Nothing makes a 
finer blue garden mass.15 
Gobelin Red— 30 in. A REAL RED IRIS BY THE COLOR CHARTS, the 
standards being pure mineral red and the falls spectrum red.20 
Golden Bow— 30 in. VERY EARLY. AWARD OF MERIT AMERICAN IRIS 
SOCIETY 1938. EASILY THE BEST OF ALL THE VERY EARLY FLOW¬ 
ERING DEEP YELLOWS, outclassing all others previously introduced in the 
early flowering class. The color is much the same as the later flowering 
California Gold, and it is almost as fine, but two to three weeks earlier. A 
large flower of fine form, delightful rich smooth clear color and very free flower¬ 
ing .20
