16 OH RE UNE Res 
JANICE (Schreiner 1943) VL. 38”. 
This attractive rich blue iris resembles Missouri some- 
what only in place of the brown throat Sheila is a com- 
pletely uniform blue. Broad, full flowers blooming toward 
the end of the season, it is heavily substanced. We have 
grown this seedling of Sensation x Zulu for some years and 
it is constantly selected by our visitors in preference to 
many newer kinds. It is a fine iris and we should have in- 
troduced it years ago as it has proven its worth through the 
stiffest competitive trials. The price is modest; it is well 
worth it. $1.00 
JASMANIA (Ayres 1936) M. 38”. 
For perfection of form, this copious, full petaled flower 
rates high among the yellows. The color is a rich tone of 
banana yellow with a brilliant orange beard. The color is 
enhanced by a shadow of pale buff near the heart of the 
flower. Tall and distinguished in carriage. One of the finest 
yellows; in all ways excellent. 35c; 3 for 90c 
JEAN CAYEUX (Cayeux 1931) M. 34”. 
Full-petaled flower with its slight suggestion of a frill, has 
a pleasing grace and opulence of form. Its novel tones of 
light havana brown with a lustre of golden biscuit-tan show 
up at their richest in the slanting rays of the early morning 
sun. 25c; 3 for 60c 
JELLOWAY (Parker 1936) M. 42”. 
One of the deeper toned of the newer yellows. An iris 
of good size and substance, lovely oval form, and excellent 
branching. A great garden iris because of its fine stem, 
and clear color. 50c; 3 for $1.25 
JOY CETT BaQiesasssl922)NViE 36" . 
A truly great red. Its nicely branched stems often carry 
two or three open blooms at the same time. Joycette is 
one of the largest in its color section and of a deep, glowing 
crimson color, being practically a self. We consider its 
clean-cut styling unsurpassed by any of the reds. 
25c; 3 for 60c 
JUNALUSKA (Kirkland 1934) EM. 36”. 
Essentially a red iris, but, unlike other reds, blended by 
an infusion of gold and copper about the throat. A splendid 
regal sort that wins a great deal of admiration. 
40c; 3 for $1.00 
KING’S RANSOM (Miliken 1940) M. 40”. 
Ruffled, rich gold, deeper in tone than Happy Days or 
Lady Paramount, an iris whose characteristics make it sound 
very interesting indeed. Being a Southern California origi- 
nation it requires testing for hardiness. $3.50 
LADY NAOMI (Fay 1941) M. 38”. 
Dainty, nymph-like, finest soft pale lavender network 
of markings so minute and compact that the ground color 
of this plicata seems to disappear. Broad segments, large 
and hardy; very novel. $10.00 
LADY PARAMOUNT (White 1934) EM. 38”. 
A noble, exquisitely poised, large primrose yellow. Ex- 
cellent form with full, broad standards and broad, semi- 
flaring falls. The silken texture gives this flower a soft, 
translucent glimmer. Tall stems, gracefully branched. A 
very fine light yellow. 35c; 3 for 90c 
LA LORRAINE (Ayres 1940) M. 33”. 
A collaboration of two, three or more colors unexpectedly 
assembled yet so smoothly and artfully combined the effect 
is a most pleasing soft pastel blend. The main color is 
fawn with an overlay of coppery pink, falls lightly tinted 
heliotrope or lavender mallow. The smooth finish of the 
chamois-like substance blends imperceptibly to suffusion 
of gold at the throat. Not tall, moderately branched, its 
gleaming crystalline silver iridescence carries as lovely cop- 
per pink; good sized blooms. Rigid standards, semi-flaring 
falls recalling K. V. Ayres in form. $2.50 
PERALS. 9 cGaACR GD EAN:S 
LANCASTER (P. Cook 1940) M. 36”. 
A pronounced emphasis is given to the broad form of this 
flower. Flat pendant falls, very heavy substance. In 
coloring — fluid swirls of deep pink to old rose. A dash of 
yellow gleams imperceptibly to give the flower light from 
below and gives the pink tones just the faintest hints of 
tan-pink. Both floriferous and hardy. $7.50 
LATE SUN _ (DeForest 1940) ML. 42”. 
A comparatively new yellow that is becoming popular in- 
creasingly fast. In color it is a clear rich deep yellow with 
a red-gold overlay. The blooms are quite large, 6 inches, 
and the stems branch well, very good height. A very fine 
iris. $4.00 
LIGHTHOUSE (Salbach 1936) ML. 34”. 
A most unusual coalition of colors, a clear old rose to 
rose-red light bicolor. A torch-like center of yellow sends 
slithering streams of gold from the heart of the flower. 
Good substance and smoothly textured. 75¢ 
LILAMANI (J. Sass 1938) M. 38”. 
Striking new blue-black, dusky yet richly glowing. The 
blooms are large with broad, thick velvety falls. Sturdy 
stalks, very tall. A free growing, imposing development in 
our violets. 50c; 3 for $1.25 
LORD DONGAN (kK. Smith 1940) M. 37”. 
Striking solemn new purple composed of Chinese violet 
standards and spaciously broad rounded falls of a very 
deep plush, solidly colored, pansy violet. A warm toned 
pees provides a sparkling contrast to rich tones of the 
ower. 
LOS ANGELES (Mohr-Mitchell 1927) M. 38”. 
Snowy white throughout save for a slight stitching of 
‘cerulean at the haft and at the base of the standards and 
a beard of soft yellow-gold, Los Angeles is an exquisitely 
sculptured beauty with the finest satin sheen — tall, vig- 
orous, well-branched — a classic iris that is a cornerstone 
of any collection worthy of the name. 25c; 3 for 60c 
LORI MAY (DeForest 1941) ML. 30”. 
A harmonious daphne pink very lightly shaded rose; pert 
and flippant. Clear colors, starch-like substanced blooms, 
a bright new color note. Good sized blooms, stem could be 
better branched; in color getting very close to true pink. 
$8.00 
LOUVOIS (Cayeux 1936) M. 35”. 
Incredibly, amazingly rich and lustrous! The brown iris. 
A wealth of rich maroon brown enfolds the flower with 
standards of light chocolate brown and falls a very rich, 
glossy red-maroon with a chocolate border along the edge 
of the petal; nice gold beard. The color is very rich and the 
flower is pure, remarkably free from veins. From a dis- 
tance it looks like two tones of chocolate, a harmony of 
brown. Not tall but noteworthy for its rich color and defi- 
nite margined fall. Richly endowed with qualities ensuring 
lasting distinction and charm. $1.00; 3 for $2.50 
LUCREZIA BORI (Schreiner 1935) L. 40”. 
Delightfully ruffled and fluted the falls are slightly deeper 
in color than the standards and have a bronze-olive reflex 
which pales shortly after the bloom opens. Large, late 
blooming, dusky deep yellow. Well substanced, branched, 
good height. 25c; 3 for 60c 
MAJENICA (P. Cook 1941) EM. 36”. 
An exciting salmon tinted pink blend, wide petalled 
flowers. A clear, bright, smoothly colored self with very 
stiff, lasting substance. A refreshing color bringing the 
salmon tones of Eros into a larger and broader petalled 
flower of substance. Branched stems $8.00
