STORM KING (Nicholls 1940) L. 48”. 
Massive —a vision of sombre fascination. One of the 
top notch dark iris, being as dark as any named variety 
and of splendid form and growth habits. It shares with 
Sable, which is a blue purple while Storm King is true pur- 
ple, the joint honor of being the outstanding dark iris in 
commerce today. The dusky Castor and Pollux of our 
gardens. $12.50 
SUMMER IDYL._ (Schreiner 1942) EM. 36”. 
A very delicate, lovely shade of blue. In shade it is 
smooth, unveined porcelain blue, lighter than any other blue 
we list but definitely a blue like a delicate tint of a summer 
sky. $1.50 
SUMMER TAN (Kirkland 1935) E. 30”. 
Sleek as a well-preened bird of tropic plumage is this 
exquisite blend of golden-tan, rose, and olive. There is 
nothing else like it and the subtle color harmony is sure to 
have an irresistible appeal. 30c; 3 for 75c 
SUNDANCE (Nesmith 1940) L. 39”. 
Restless colors — like a trailing flame leaving chamelion- 
like tones that blend, change and create a very unusual 
color effect. In the vivid display of color we find the range 
of golden tan to rose sienna, falls shaded the same with a 
reddish mahogany zone on the upper portion and wide 
border of gold, corona-like, surrounding the brilliant red 
area. A brilliant and uniquely colored iris. $3.50 
SUNDAY BEST (Grant 1941) ML. 36”. 
Well formed, heavily textured, large ivory self. The 
flower is very broad petalled with semi-flaring falls. A bright 
orange beard caps this fine bloom. A fine garden subject 
with very great weather resistance. 
SUNDUST (Washington 1936) M. 35”. 
A rounded semi-flaring deep yellow. Particularly meri- 
torious is its ability to withstand hottest sun and not bleach 
its rich pigmentation — a point particularly appreciated in 
some of the hotter sections of the country. Pure deep 
chrome yellow self, rich orange beard, tall, sturdily branched 
stems. 75c; 3 for $2.00 
SUN SPOT (Grant 1941) ML. 36”. 
Brilliant yellow, tall and well branched. It is of interest 
because the bright color is set off by a small white spot in 
the center of the falls. This color pattern is a variation in 
manner of coloring and appeals very much to those people 
who like this type of color pattern. $3.00 
SUNSET TAN (Egelberg 1940) ML. 36”. 
Entrancing, harmonious combination of soft buff-fawn 
with a pale copper-pink glow. Fine formed flower, self in 
tone, of good substance with more pink and less bronze in 
its coloring than most other similarly colored. Strong stalks 
of moderate branching. $3.50 
SYMBOL (White 1941) M. 36”. 
A yellow with a heart of apricot and orange and a paint- 
ing of fawn brown brushed on each side of the beard; very 
neat and trim. An interesting variation in color pattern. 
Medium large flowers, well branched stems. $10.00 
THE ADMIRAL  (D. Hall 1941) ML. 36”. 
Profound and stately, an effective, dark, brilliant violet- 
blue with a blue-tipped beard. The standards are lightly 
frilled, the falls flare in a dashing way. A luscious color, 
finely formed blooms, the stem is high branched. Especially 
effective as a clump because of its dramatic carriage and 
happy combination of color. $4.00 
THE BISHOP (Washington 1937) M. 36”. 
A smooth, long formed flower of intense Bishop’s purple. 
Blooms are well formed and are carried on well branched 
stems. It can best be visualized as being midway between 
that fine lustrous purple, /ndian Hills, and the more violet, 
San Diego. $1.00

THE BLACK DOUGLAS (J. Sass 1934) EM. 30”. 
This pansy-violet of moderate size and height, has the 
richest, most velvety texture of any deep violet. One of 
the near-black iris; a very high class flower. 
25c 
THE GUARDSMAN (Grant 1939) EM. 34”. 
Standards of rosy fawn or the new shade called dusty 
pink with semi-flaring falls slightly deeper in tone with a 
rich velvety overlay of deep rosy bordeaux. An interesting 
novelty, one of its highlights is a quarter-inch distinct 
margin of dusty pink extending completely around the fall.

Mab eee ee et ou CS 1S A'S SC Sass 1937) Mile gG @ 
A magnificent iris, we think it one of the finest iris we have 
grown and it is unquestionably close to the apex of all the 
dark red purples. Although there are redder iris there is 
no more beautiful dark red. A vibrant red of rich plush- 
like quality giving the flower a deep glowing ruby-like lustre. 
The entire flower is pure and unmarred by any haft venation; 
a self, the rich overall gives it a most sumptuous and courtly 
appearance like the sterling thoroughbred it is. 
$1.00; 3 for $2.50 
THELMA JEAN (Peck 1939) EM. 34”. 
A production from New England. A rich self shade of 
petunia violet with ideal stiff, upright standards; crisp, 
broad, straight hanging falls. Early flowering, branched 
stalks; very pretty and a novel coloring we recommend. 
$2.50 
THEODOLINDA (Ayres 1932) ML. 37”. 
This is a larger plicata than Los Angeles. The flowers are 
satiny white with button-hole stitchings of bright yet deli- 
cate blue. Very hardy and a vigorous grower. 
25c; 3 for 60c 
THiREGe S| StERS=(Derorest:1941)' L307. 
Original in expression it is an amoena of cream-white 
standards and rounded flaring falls of red or Indian lake. 
In effect a red and white amoena. The flowers are medium 
sized, the stem is not too regular being a little short. Its 
appeal is its color pattern. With us its hardiness is ques- 
tioned. $10.00 
TIFFANY (H. Sass 1938) M. 32”. 
A gaily painted yellow plicata. It has rose, or deep pink, 
stitching on a yellow background in place of the usual white. 
The pattern is broadly marked in the standards and falls 
and the contrast with the pure yellow note is quite pleasing. 
The flower is large, of excellent substance. There is a fresh- 
ness about this yellow plicata that makes it our personal 
choice among the yellow plicatas as being the most pleasing 
and different. (Pictured on page 19.) 75c; 3 for $2.00 
TOBACCO ROAD (Kleinsorge 1942) M. 34”. 
Stiff, horizontal flaring flowers with rigid upright stan- 
dards give this iris a crisp effect. A unique color, a golden 
tobacco brown in tone, which is lighter in tone than other 
browns. A striking and different new blend. $17.50 
TOP SERGEANT (Kirkland 1941) ML. 34”. 
Brilliant red-brown, almost a self. LDown South this is 
proclaimed the most outstanding red iris excelling others in 
richness and clarity of color. Falls velvety and slightly 
deeper in tone, very well substanced. $10.00 
TREASURE ISLAND (Kleinsorge 1937) ML. 36”. 
A massive flower of a rich shade of vivid yellow. The 
pure golden tones are untarnished by any flaw of flecking 
that appears as a shortcoming in others at times. ‘Tall 
stems, moderatley branched, hardy, it is a highly meritori- 
ous variety. 50c; 3 for $1.25
