RAMESES (UH. Sass 1929) ML. 38”. 
Another of the great Dykes Medal irises —a stalwart 
giant in tones of golden buff and rosy pink. This iris is a 
rampant grower, a single clump often displaying a score 
or more of open blooms at one time. 25c; 3 for 60c 

RANGITIKEI (Stevens 1941) M. 36”. 
Considered by the originator of Jnspiration to be her 
finest seedling surpassing even /nspiration, itself a remark- 
able iris. Deeper in color it inherits the essential carmine 
rose of Inspiration. A lustrous dark carmine self enriched 
by a bright gold beard. Large flowers of faultless form, 
substance and carriage. $15.00 
RED GLEAM (Lapham 1939) M. 34”. 
A rich velvety yet brilliant red with a chestnut cast. The 
plant is not tall but is a profuse bloomer, both bright and 
cheerful. The blooms are of good_form and smooth texture. 
$3.00 
RED VALOR (Nicholls 1939) M. 38” 
Set of the fire of garnet marked with a brown beard, this 
jewel-like glowing red of ideally formed flowers, domed 
standards and flaring falls gives a most interesting sil- 
houette. Tall branched stems and very imposing. $6.00 
REGAL BEAUTY (Milliken 1939) ML. 38”. 
An iris in a favorite old color —rich glossy purple. 
Almost medieval blackish-purple falls with a gay light 
standard of clear light violet with the whole ensemble capped 
by a rich glowing yellow beard. The iris looks all the more 
luxuriant because of an added glow of brown that centers 
in the falls and center of the flower. $2.00 
RISING SUN (Kirkland 1941) M. 34”. 
Radiant, handsome deep pink bicolor, fresh and attrac- 
tive. The tone gives a bright, fresh color effect. Form and 
growth habits are the best with heavily substanced blooms 
carried on tall, widely branched stems $15.00 
ROSE DOMINION (Connell 1931) M. 38”. 
An iris of marked individuality with rounded ‘“‘half- 
dollar” falls flaring almost to the horizontal. The rosy 
tone is augmented by a fine velvetiness of texture. 
25c; 3 for 60c 
ROSE. TOP. {H.. Sass 1941)) M534". 
A flow of lacy frills and elaborate styling. The needle- 
pointing of novel rose markings on cream-yellow give this 
yellow ground plicata a merry personality and the casual 
ruffle seems to give the flowers a curtsying grace that is 
most endearing. Its novelty lies in the color of the mark- 
ings and the restraint and art with which they adorn the 
petals. $20.00 
ROSY WINGS (Gage 1936) M. 38”. 
A delightful fantasy of colors, rosy red vying with copper 
tones producing a pleasing iridescence. The general tone 
varies with one’s viewpoint and with the light, producing 
a most intriguing effect. J0C yo Om7oc 
ROYAL COMMAND (D. Hall 1939) M. 40”. 
A descendent of Legend inheriting that variety’s splendid 
branching with further refinement; 4 and 5 flowers open at 
same time. The color is rich velvety purple, very close to 
the tone of dark Dubonnet-red. Very pure in color, its 
lustre emits a vibrancy giving a most striking color effect in 
the garden. $1.00; 3 for $2.50 
RUTH POLLOCK (UH. Sass 1939) ML. 36”. 
This is unquestionably one of the finest yellow plicatas. 
Full, broadly-formed blooms held on well branched stems, 
ideal placement, form and size. The ground color is a clear 
tone of medium deep yellow with heavy, yet clearly etched
