Eleanor Roosevelt—20c 
While the above illustration of Eleanor Roose¬ 
velt was made from an actual photograph, 
colored by hand with the flower before the 
artist, it is really much darker and richer than 
produced by these color plates, being more 
nearly the color of Black Magic. 
Autumn Flowering Iris (Continued) 
Golden H arvest— 18 in. A very fine large free flowering deep yellow, having 
a greenish-gold cast, with red-gold veining at the throat. A reliable bloomer 
twice a year.20 
Jean Si ret— 15 in. A NEW YELLOW EVERBLOOMING IRIS. This variety 
and Lieut. Chavagnac are undoubtedly the forerunners of a new race of 
Everblooming Irises. They are the most persistent bloomers of the entire 
family. They begin to flower quite early in the spring with the early minia¬ 
tures and at that time have a very long flowering season. They also have 
an equally long Autumn flowering season. I have had them in bloom from 
September until the middle of December. But best of all, they have a de¬ 
cided tendency to flower any time that the weather seems to suit them 
throughout the summer months. Sold recently for $10.00 for a single 
plant.20 
King Junior— 30 in. A recent introduction and a great improvement on 
Autumn King, being in reality a Super Autumn King. The color is the same, 
but it is a much more reliable and prolific bloomer. For this reason I have 
discontinued growing Autumn King and offer King Junior instead. It is a 
fine blue-purple bi-color.20 
Laura Hutcheson —24 in. A very handsome rich new blue-violet variety 
that is not only handsome and especially brilliant in the garden, but is also 
particularly fine as a cut flower. This is one of the richest colored Irises in 
this group.20 
Lieut. Chavagnac— 15 in. A NEW EVERBLOOMING FRAGRANT 
BRILLIANT VIOLET COLORED VARIETY, WITH ALL THE GOOD 
QUALITIES OF JEAN SIRET, including its everblooming tendencies. 
These two go well together. Recently sold for $10.00 for a single plant. 
Stock still scarce.20 
October Blaze— 24 in. One of the most attractive of all the Fall Bloomers, 
being somewhat similar to Dauntless in color, giving us a brilliant red-tone 
in this group.35 
Olive White— 18 in. A very lovely creamy-white variety, with attractive 
green-gold veining at the throat. 15 
Peggy Babbington— 28 in. A rich, deep clear uniform yellow, with wax-like 
petals of the smoothest possible texture. See color illustration. Extra Fine 
Plants. 20 
Sangreal— 28 in. A remarkably fine new deep yellow with a deep orange 
beard. An improvement in the yellow fall bloomers.25 
September Skies— 24 in. A new deep rich brilliant purple self that blooms 
freely both spring and fall. A fine large stock of extra fine plants permits a 
very low price. 15 
Sound Money —10 in. A NEW MINIATURE SPRING 
AND AUTUMN FLOWERING VARIETY IN DEEP 
RICH GOLDEN YELLOW. A reliable bloomer twice a 
year. Fine for the rockery, or small bed or for bordering 
taller varieties.15 
Southland— 24 in. GIVEN AN AWARD OF MERIT BY 
THE AMERICAN IRIS SOCIETY 1939. A sensational 
new deep golden yellow variety, with large flowers of fine 
form and heavy substance on well branching stalks. . .20 
Ultra —18 in. The unusual brilliant ultra-marine color of this 
Iris would make it valuable even if it flowered only in the 
spring, but it is a profuse bloomer twice a year, being one 
of the most reliable of all Fall Bloomers. A real gem and 
one of the best of this group. See color illustration. . . .25 
White Autumn King —30 in. A magnificent new glistening 
snowy-white of robust growth. A prodigious bloomer and a 
large flower of perfect form and heavy wax-like substance.

POSTAGE OR EXPRESS PREPAID 
Bulbous and Tuberous Rooted Iris 
In this group I have included only a few varieties of special merit. Each has 
a striking individuality of its own that puts it in a class by itself. I have grown 
all of them quite successfully outside, although Bucharica prefers the pro¬ 
tection of a cold frame. Where prices are quoted by the dozen it is because it 
requires that quantity to make a showing; in these cases single bulbs are not 
sold, but I can furnish a half a dozen of a variety at the dozen rate. 
Bucharica —28 in. A most unusual and handsome plant and flower, with glossy 
bright green foliage, like a miniature corn stalk, with soft satiny yellow 
flowers at the tip and at the axil of each leaf.• Each 1.00 
King Caesar —12 in. Belongs to the Reticulata Family. Stock from an Eastern 
garden, where it has grown undisturbed and almost unattended foi 50 
years. 5.00 Doz. 
Reticulata— 12 in. VERY EARLY. Flowering with the Crocus. Rich pansy- 
violet; pronounced violet fragrance. See color illustration. 
.’ 1 & .2.00 doz.; 15.00 per 100 
Tuberosa —12 in. Very fragrant apple green flowers, with a lip oi rich, 
velvety blackish-purple. Unique and quite handsome.
