Sacramento—40 in. GIVEN HONORABLE MENTION BY THE AMERICAN 
IRIS SOCIETY, A GIANT “PLICATA,”’ COMPARABLE IN SIZE TO SAN 
FRANCISCO, BUT ENTIRELY DIFFERENT IN FORM AND MARKING,

red-purple, the marking being more prominent than in other ‘‘Plicatas’’ such as 
San Francisco or Los Angeles, the latter being illustrated on Page 16. You are sure 
to be very much pleased with Sacramento... ........cceee ccc cesses erseece -20
