1943 IRIS INTRODUCTIONS 
We have never had so many fine new varieties to choose 
from. It became extremely difficult to eliminate many splen- 
did seedlings from our prospective list of new introductions. 
We offer the following and feel certain they will meet with 
the approval of the iris fans as well as the home gardener. 
BLACK & GOLD (Kleinsorge-Salbach 
1943). We have never seen a more strik- 
ing variegata. Standards deep rich 
chrome, almost gold, falls black maroon 
with slight reticulation of yellow at the 
haft. We first saw a clump of this in Dr. 
Kleinsorge’s garden that was simply stun- 
ning. It seems to grow even better in our 
own garden. Good size blooms. Tall, fairly 
well branched flower stalks. 36”. Mid-sea-

1943). A brilliant iris in shades of copper, 
gold and violet. Standards are garnet 
brown shading to golden brown at haft. 
Falls are coppery brown, suffused gold. 
Bright orange beard, supplemented with 
a dash of bright peacock blue in center of 
falls. Not large but tremendously effec- 
tive in the garden. 30”. Mid-season. $15.00 
CHIPPEWA (Salbach 1943). A new plicata 
in deep yellow tones. Standards clear 
golden yellow with slight brown markings 
near the haft. Falls pinard yellow very 
heavily suffused and dotted brown.

cream in the center of falls. Blooms of 
good size, nicely placed on well-branched 
30” steams. Mid-season............ $15.00 
MISTY ROSE (Mitchell-Salbach 1943).

iris, well described by its name. Tall, 4 ft. 
-low and wide branched with 7 buds. Flow- 
ers large 5” x 6”. Standards pearly-pink, 
falls deeper, suffused brownish rose be- 
low the beard. Should be a fine seed- 
parent for either pinks or plicatas. The 
soft harmonious shape of pink is both 
new and attractive. Mid-season 40” .$10.00 
ORCHID LADY (Salbach 1943). Large per- 
fectly formed blooms in a lively shade of 
lilac, the standards being slightly deeper 
in color than the falls. Standards well

Blooms are well spaced on 36” flower 
stalks. Fine growing habits. One of our 
best introductions. Late mid-season . $10.00 
SANTA ROSA (Mitchell-Salbach 1943). 
(Monadnock x Seedling.) The largest and 
tallest flower we have seen in the pink to 
rose shades. Four feet high, fairly well 
branched, 7 buds. Large, wide flowers of 
heavy substance. Falls flaring before they 
curve down, standards pink, falls rose 
somewhat lined towards the haft. Gives
