LA MIERKA (Millet, 1926). This being a new French novelty that 
has not yet bloomed in my garden, I give the originator’s de- 
scription: “A plicata with flowers of good size. Standards red- 
dish magenta, speckled reddish brown at the base. Falls the 
same color, but lighter, with an enormous white flake on the 
centre and same speckling at the throat.” Those visiting my 
gardens in June, 1931, will have an opportunity of verifying 
this description. $2.50 each, 3 for $6.75, 6 for $12.00

finest of the new French introductions. The standards are light

a Certificate of Merit by the French National Horticultural

lavender edging. Produces small rhizomes, but a very hand- 
some flower. $3.50 each

standards shaded light slate; falls bishops violet on a coppery 
rose ground; throat strongly reticulated canary yellow—dquite 
unusual. $5.00 each 
LODESTAR (Hall, 1925), 36 inches. Given an Award of Merit by the 
American Iris Society. This is unquestionably the most brilliant

much attention as any Iris in my garden this past season. 
The standards are the most vivid chrome yellow and the falls 
are velvety claret brown, with a narrow edging of the same 
deep chrome yellow as the standards. The flower is of good 
size, perfect form and excellent substance. This variety is 
quite scarce. $5.00 each
