shade of yellow at the base, softening

have edges that are crimped and wavy. 
Unusually large flowers on 4-foot well-branched stalks. An ex- 
ceptionally fine yellow iris. $15.00 
CHEERIO (Ayres) 
Those who are looking for red in an iris will just about find it here 
and yet it is not a color that will offend the most conservative iris 
grower. It is one of the brightest of all irises in the red tones. The 
form of the flower is good and the falls are exceptionally beautiful 
with their bright velvety sheen. A brilliant yellow beard completes 
the picture. 50c, 3 for $1.25 
CHINA BOY (Milliken) 
Those who see this magnificent iris with its huge flowers of rich 
red bronze, toned with shades of brown and carried on tall stately 
stems, immediately determine to have it in their own garden. China 
Boy is one of those rare flowers that has a universal appeal. It is 
stunning growing near a deep blue-purple such as Royal Salute. 
3% feet. $1.00, 3 for $2.50 
CHINA MAID (Milliken) 
Words simply fail to convey an adequate impression of the 
beauty this flower possesses with its intriguing blend of pink, 
golden bronze and soft lilac—and color is only one of its beauties. 
The lerge, well-proportioned flowers of sturdy substance and 
smooth even texture are carried on tall graceful stems. Try China 
Maid w:th some of the light blues. Perfectly hardy. 4 feet. 
One of the outstanding iris critics in the United States in speaking 
about pink blends says, “China Maid is one of the very best intro- 
ductions in this color class and liked tremendously.” See illustra-
