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 50 
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. $1.50 
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. 75c 
LOS ANGELES (Mohr-Mitchell 1927) M. 38”. 
Snowy white throughout save for a slight stitching of 
cerulean at the haft and at the base of the standards and 
a beard of soft yellow-gold, Los Angeles is an exquisitely 
sculptured beauty with the finest satin sheen — tall, vig- 
orous, well-branched — a classic iris that is a cornerstone 
of any collection worthy of the name. 25c; 3 for 50c 
LOUVOIS (Cayeux 1936) M. 35”. 
Incredibly, amazingly rich and lustrous! The brown iris. 
A wealth of rich maroon brown enfolds the flower with 
standards of light chocolate brown and falls a very rich, 
glossy red-maroon with a chocolate border along the edge 
of the petal; nice gold beard. The color is very rich and the 
flower is pure, remarkably free from veins. From a dis- 
tance it looks like two tones of chocolate, a harmony of 
brown. Not tall but noteworthy for its rich color and defi- 
nite margined fall. Richly endowed with qualities ensuring 
lasting distinction and charm. 2.50 
LUCREZIA BORI (Schreiner 1935) VL. 40”. 
Very large, late blooming, dusky deep yellow. The espe- 
cially striking feature is the delightful ruffling and fluting 
of the standards with semi-informal, long falls. The falls 
are slightly deeper in color having a bronze-olive reflex 
which pales shortly after the bloom opens. Well substanced, 
branched, good height to the kloom stems. 25c; 3 for 50c 
MARCO POLO (Schreiner 1936) EM. 37”. 
Named after a colorful personality of the Middle Ages, 
this variety is one of the contenders today for the honor of 
being the reddest iris. It is a large clear-toned bicolor with 
lustrous rose standards and brilliant. velvety, crimson falls. 
The color is solid without detracting venation. A fine 
orange beard contributes a sprightly touch of contrast. One 
of the most handsome of the newer reds which seems to 
be doing well throughout the U. S Winner of an A.I.S. 
Honorable Mention. 35c; 3 for $1.00 
MARISHA JJ. Sass 1939) VL. 38”. 
A new pink blend with the pink tones enveloped in a 
creamy yellow. Blended like the colors of the first rays of 
the sun. Soft cream yellow standards with heavily flushed 
light pink falls overlaid the same tone of creamy er 
75c 
MARQUITA (Cayeux 1931) L. 34”. 
An amoena type in cream and watermelon rose. Its 
luminous cream standards, ‘‘silken, hushed, and chaste,” 
are the last word in serene but warm exquisiteness. The 
watermelon-rose falls are veined rather than solidly colored. 
A very lovely iris. 25c
