Queen Anne—36 in. EARLY. An exquisitely 
beautiful Iris, entirely in a class by itself, as 
there is no other Iris like it. The dome shaped 
standards are beautifully creped, cream col- 
ored with a faint bronze overcast. The flaring 
falls are of the same color, prominently 
veined pansy-violet, with old-gold veining 
at the throat to the tip of the beard. When 
it first flowered, in order to see if the reaction 
of others was the same as mine, I showed it 
separately to two different people, the first 
exclaimed ‘‘OH! Isn’t that beautiful. It 
reminds one of something antique.’”’ The 
second, when asked what it reminded her of, 
replied without hesitation ‘‘Why something 
antique,’ which made it 100%, as that was 
exactly my own reaction. I thereupon decided 
to name it ‘‘Antique’”’ only to find that the 
name had already been reserved by some one 
else, whom I believe never used it. So I named 
it ‘‘Queen Anne.” It is one of my own intro- 
ductions. The record as to its parentage was 
lost, but I was using some Oncocyclus pollen 
on Tall Bearded Iris at the time and believe 
the unusual effect results from this. At any 
rate it is quite handsome............ -20

Rheingauperle—34 in. EARLY. SWEET APPLE-BLOSSOM FRAG-

apple-blossom pink tone. For a delightful garden mass, or as a cut flower, 
this is my personal choice of all the pink tones and if I could have but 
one inexpensive pink I am sure it would be Rheingauperle. Any one of 
refined taate will immediately fall in love with this real gem when they 
see it in flower. Besides being a handsome flower, it is very free ponte 
ARE SO FEW, but I found it necessary to withdraw it from sale for 
several years in order to accumulate a sufficient stock to enable me to 
offer it at a modest price. The standards are white, with a slight flush of 
lilac; and the deep velvety falls are of violet-blue, with a lilac border. 
It is a real beauty of large size and perfect form and a very free bloomer.

in shape and color, but is larger and better. I had them growing side
