German or Flag Iris 
There are so many fine Irises introduced each year that it is very 
difficult to pick out the best. However, in this list will be found those 
that are universally hailed as wonderful improvements, or have already 
proven their claims as superfine Irises. All of these varieties are 
definite improvements over older ones of similar coloring, or are of 
new and novel shades. “S.” denotes the Standards or upper petals; 
“F” the Falls or lower petals. 
CULTURE: Iris will grow in any good soil and under almost any 
condition. They like lime and should be divided and reset every third 
year. 
Alta California Each $0.25, Doz. $2.50 
It is tallest of all the new yellow Iris, and its branching qualifies it 
for "A" rating either as an individual stalk or as mass bloom. Yellow 
Iris have long been recognized as being the "spark" that brings out the 
fullest beauty of any Iris garden, and Alta California serves this purpose 
to perfection. 
Anne Marie Cayeux Each $0.35, Doz. $3.50 
One of the best light blends. A French introduction, given an Award of 
Merit by National Horticultural Society in France. S. pinkish lilac, 
flushed gray; F. metallic blue over gray; the "iridescent colorings of a 
pigeon's throat" to use originator's description. (Color illustration, page 
55.) 
Beowulf Each $1.50, Doz. $15.00 
Rich velvety maroon unmarred by any haft venation. The coppery 
hrown of the standards is repeated in a soft margining on the un¬ 
usually broad falls. The rich orange beard completes the glowing en¬ 
semble. Beowulf is the nearest true maroon of any Iris. 
Black Wings Each $0.30, Doz. $3.00 
A new "black" Iris that is gorgeously deep in tone. S. deep fluorite 
violet; F. deeper fluorite violet, with black veins, and so very velvety 
that at some angles they are absolutely black. Blooms of good size, 
form, and substance, and a hardy plant. Very fragrant, and a great 
achievement in breeding, as it is very nearly black. 
Blue Velvet Each $0.25, Doz. $2.50 
One of the most beautiful and appropriately named, as the entire flower 
seems to be cut out of velvet and the color is a deep intense blue. 
California Gold Each $1.00, Doz. $10.00 
We consider this one of the finest deep yellow Iris introduced to date 
and think this is the consensus of opinion of others. It is simply superb, 
having a brilliance and purity of color and perfection of form and finish 
not approached by any other deep yellow Iris we have seen. The flowers 
are large and very freely produced. 
China Rose Each $0.25, Doz. $2.50 
Colors exquisitely blended. Described as orchid-rose warmed by a bronze 
undertone at the bottom of the standards. A decided favorite which 
flowers early and continues through the season. Mid-season. 36 inches. 
Clara Noyes Each $0.25, Doz. $2.50 
A very warm, brilliant blend of Talisman rose colors. S. bright apricot, 
suffused rose-red; F. peach, overlaid copper. A lovely medley of peach, 
salmon, apricot, and copper. 
Coppersmith Each $0.15, Doz. $1.50 
A very tall and robust growing Iris. Not a new variety but worthy of a 
place in the garden because of its freedom of bloom, large rich copper- 
bronze flowers, and good foliage. 
Crystal Beauty Each $0.35, Doz. $3.50 
Very early and very tall. A gorgeous, pure, clear snow-white of huge 
size on stalks that are shoulder high, being the tallest of all white 
Irises. Flowers of perfect shape and freely produced. 
Oauntless Each $0.25, Doz. $2.50 
Winner of highest international honors, the Dykes Memorial Medal. The 
finest and purest red-toned Iris introduced to date. 
Day Dream Each $0.25, Doz. $2.50 
Falls lavender-pink with large yellow beard. Yellow center veined bronze, 
standards pale smoky lavender-pink at tip shading to bronzy yellow at 
base. Fine smoky lavender-pink effect. 
Dolly Madison Each $0.15, Doz. $1.50 
A beautiful blend of light smoky lavender, delicately color^. A bloom 
of the largest size and perfect shape on tall, strong stems, and one of 
the finest Iris.
