Tall Bearded Iris 
(Continued) 
Santa Barbara—40 in. THIS FINE 
AMERICAN INTRODUCTION 
HAD THE DISTINCTION OF 
RECEIVING AN AWARD OF 
MERIT FROM THE ROYAL 
HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY OF 
ENGLAND. It is one of the finest 
of the pure lavender-blues, of gigan- 
tic size and perfect form. The color 
illustration on Page 28, which is 
about half actual size, does not begin 
to do it justice, as it is difficult to 
show the purity of the blue color on 
paper. It must be seen to be appreci- 
ated -15 
Santa Clara—36 in. EARLY. This is 
just as fine a flower as Santa Bar- 
bara, but in a different blue, being a 
pure clear Periwinkle Blue. The 
flowers are large and perfectly formed, 
with beautifully ruffled flaring falls.

Sea Dawn—38 in. A beautifully ruf- 
fled brown blend, somewhat similar 
in color to Jean Cayeux, which is 
illustrated on Page 12, but with a 
soft pink flush, which gives it added 
attraction. A better color than Brown 
Betty, but not quite so large or so 
tall. Free flowering and makes an 
excellent garden mass. A great bar- 
gain at this year’s price....... .20 
Senlac—40 in. DELIGHTFULLY 
FRAGRANT. GIVEN AN AWARD 
OF MERIT BY THE ROYAL 
HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY OF 
FRANCE. A GORGEOUS IRIS in 
a unique and very lovely mulberry 
tone and one of the most beautiful 
Iris in my collection. I am sorry I do 
not have a color plate of it, as it is 
wanted by everyone who sees it. 
SOLD IN 1932 FOR $25.00 FOR A

of extra large fine plants now permits 
a very low price. 66.5 se6se00s 25

EN AN AWARD OF MERIT BY 
THE ROYAL HORTICULTURAL 
SOCIETY OF FRANCE. A REAL 
SENSATION IN A CLEAR ANA- 
LINE BLUE, created by Cayeux of 
France. A perfect flower of gigantic 
size and one of the most prodigious 
bloomers. Considered one of the best 
blues and the most popular of all of the blue toned varieties to-day.

Serenade—30 in. A REAL GEM OF A PINK TONED IRIS AND I 
BELIEVE THE TRUEST PINK TONED IRIS CREATED TO 
DATE, being a purer pink than Pink Satin illustrated on Page 3, but 
not so tall and of entirely different form. Marvelous for landscape or 
mass effect in the garden and excellent as a cut flower. Always admired

Shah Jehan—328 in. GIVEN AN AWARD OF MERIT BY THE AMERI- 
CAN IRIS SOCIETY IN 1937 AND A BRONZE MEDAL BY THE 
IRIS SOCIETY OF ENGLAND. A most unusual and very beautiful 
new Iris, being the most striking of the ‘‘Amoena’’ type. A multi-colored 
Iris with seven distinct colors, but a flower of the greatest refinement 
notwithstanding its lavish colors. It is considered by many as one of 
the greateat achievements of Iris development. The standards are soft 
creamy buff, flushed soft lavender and suffused gray, fading to almost 
pure white as the flower ages. The falls are deep rich ruby-red, with a 
one-eighth inch white border. This is but an inadequate description of 
this very fine Iris. An extra fine large stock of this new variety enables 
me to offer it at a very low price for such a fine Iris. See illustration on 
the front cover, but no picture of this unusual Iris can be half as hand-

Shining Waters—4 to 5 ft. EARLY. VERY SWEET FRAGRANCE, 
This very delightful Iris is most aptly named, for there is a “‘sparkle”’ 
to the surface in the sunlight similar to the sparkle of the sunlight shining 
on the water. On close inspection the surface seems to be studded with 
tiny jewels, giving this unusual sparkle. The color is a uniform clear 
sky blue, of a most delightful shade. The flowers are of perfect form, 
gigantic size, and imposing appearance. I vote it the most outstanding 
Iris of its type. It is very greatly under-priced for such a fine Iris. The 
illustration on Page 27, which is about half the natural size, gives but_a 
faint idea of the great beauty of this magnificent Iris............ A

Shrine of Gold—36 in. A super-fine, soft pastel blend with a ‘‘shrine of

tints, with a flush of yellow to add to its attractiveness. It has ‘‘class.”” .15 
Sierre Blue—50 in. WINNER OF THE DYKES MEMORIAL 
MEDAL FOR 1935, HIGHEST INTERNATIONAL HONORS, 
AS THE BEST IRIS OF THAT YEAR. An exceptionally 
smooth refined flower of clear blue, with heavy substance, im- 
mense size, perfect form and towering over four feet high. Sierre 
Blue has every good quality to make it a real Champion. See

Simonne Vaissiere—36 in. A GREAT IMPROVEMENT ON THE

blue standards and brilliant analine blue falls. Makes a magnificent 
garden mass, being hardy, vigorous and very free flowering...... Sls 
FROM GEORGIA 
“T am enclosing an order for Iris. The new ones I bought from 
you last season produced more fans and more bloom stalks the 
first year than any I have ever grown. Goldilocks had four bloom 
stalks.”’
