THE WORLD’S FINEST IRISES 
SIBERIAN AND ORIENTALIS IRIS—Continued 
BLUE HERON (Cleveland, 1927), 36 inches. This variety is especially 
handsome because, besides being a large flower of perfect form, 
the styles are almost pure white, just tinged the faintest pale 
blue. These clean cut styles stand out in the sharpest contrast 
against the flaring medium violet falls and erect violet stand- 
ards, this striking contrast being the distinctive charm of this 
very fine variety. $3.50 each 
BLUE KING, 42 inches (Barr, 1903). This variety was collected by 
Barr in Japan. The color is a deep blue-purple and it has been a 
great favorite. 50c each; 3 for $1.25, 6 for $2.00, 100 for $25.00 
BLUE OWL. (Cleveland, 1927), 36 inches. An exquisite rich blue 
variety of fine form and texture and graceful poise. There is a 
beautiful triangular zone of white at the throat, veined purple 
and blending into a prominent bronze throat, veined brown. The 
soft blue styles are lighter than the balance of the flower and 
add to its attractiveness. $2.50 each 
BLUE RIDGE (Cleveland, 1929), 30 inches. A lovely light blue flower, 
shaded turquoise. $5.00 each 
BLUE STAR (Cleveland, 1927), 29 inches. A fine large flower, with 
erect standards of rich violet; the falls are of clear soft lav- 
ender and stand out in strong contrast with the balance of the 
flower. It is a very attractive Iris. $3.50 each 
BLUE WINGS (Cleveland, 1929). This distinctly new variety should 
flower in my garden for the first time in 1931. The originator 
describes it as tall, with very large flowers of a beautiful clear 
light blue. $10.00 each 
BOB WHITE (Cleveland, 1927). A lovely pure snow white, with waxy 
petals and a bright lemon zone at the throat. As it does not 
grow tall, it is excellent for the front of the border. $2.50 each 
BUTTERFLY (Cleveland, 1920), 88 inches. This is a very lovely 
variety, with standards and styles of a soft uniform sky blue. 
The falls are flushed soft blue over a white ground, the throat 
being white with purple veins. 
75c each; 3 for $2.00, 6 for $3.50 
CAESAR (F. Cleveland Morgan). This new introduction is by far 
the richest colored Siberian Iris we have, being a brilliant red- 
purple, with flowers of largest size and the finest form and 
texture. $5.00 each 
DRAGONFLY (Dykes, 1923), 58 inches. This is a very fine extra tall 
variety, the standards, falls and styles being a uniform bluish 
violet, with a bronze throat veined purple. There is a white 
zone near the throat of the lower petals, with purple veining. 
It is one of the finest and tallest Siberian Iris, being nearly 
five feet tall. $1.00 each; 3 for $2.75, 6 for $5.00 
DUCHESS OF YORK (Perry, 1924). An exceptionally fine flower of 
large size with broad dark violet standards and massive rich 
deep blue circular falls, with a prominent yellowish brown base. 
$2.00 each; 3 for $5.50, 6 for $10.00
