Vestal’s Iris Garden 
breeding for a large, tall, clear colored 
variegata, it is indeed a masterpiece in 
this field. The standards are of pure, 
bright golden yellow and the falls of 
clear, velvety red with a distinct golden 
edge. A real knockout. Strong and 
hardy in growth, it blooms almost too 
freely for its own good. H.M. 1937. 
Per. R. 90, 1938. $10.00 
CLARA NOYES (H. P. Sass 1931) M. 30 
in. A splash of brilliant coloring—a 
gorgeous blend of orange, yellow and 
red. Neither large nor tall but a gem 
in color. A very fast increaser, it has 
become very moderate in price. H.M. 
1931. A.M. 1932. R. 85. 20^ 
CLARIBEL (J. Sass 1936) M. 40 in. A 
perfectly hardy and free blooming large 
white plicata at last. The beautifully 
formed flowers are wide and full with 
semi-flaring falls, the color pure white 
edged with a stitching of clear medium 
toned blue. As fine a flower as one 
could wish with perfect grooming and 
a boon to those of us who cannot bloom 
San Francisco and Los Angeles freely 
each year. The stalks are tall and well- 
branched, the growth most satisfying. 
H.M. 1936. R. 88, 1938. $1.00

minion.

pink-lavender throughout the flower. 
Firm texture and smooth finish. 36 in. 
COPPER PIECE (Kellogg 1936). H.M., 
A.I.S. 1936. Of brilliant glowing cop¬ 
per-red, this iris has tremendous car¬ 
rying power. The center of the fall has 
a definite tone of violet blended with 
the red, that extends upward, ending 
at the beard with a point of almost pure 
violet. To this, add a distinct epaulette 
of well-polished copper on each shoul¬ 
der of the F. that makes a striking con¬ 
trast with the violet center and copper 
red margins. 34 in. $5.00 
CORALIE (Ayres) M. 34 in. S. rose- 
pink flushed lavender; F. glowing shade 
of wine red. The pure golden beard en¬ 
hances the beauty and adds to the daz¬ 
zling effect. Dykes Medal winner. 154 
CREOLE BELLE (Nich.) M. 36 in. A 
distinctive iris of deep Bishop’s purple 
with very domed S. of satiny sheen, and 
semi-flaring F. of same tone, intensified 
in richness of coloring by the mahogany 
flush extending down F. A first class 
sort. H.M. 50^ 
CRIMSON VICTORY. A tall dark red. 
$3.00

and burnt orange similar to Clara 
Noyes in color blending. 35^

and one that should be in every garden.

clear and very fine blue bi-color with

nous golden-yellow; F. straw-yellow, 
lighter on the center setting off the 
delicate veining and etching running 
from the throat and round the margin.
