An unusual color class because combined in it are pinks too dark to be placed with the light pinks and the very light reds which are 
generally blended with yellow or brown in varying oes We believe variety is as noticeable in this classification as in any table. 
Two iris of this color stood out in our garden head and shoulders above the entire field of 400 varieties. They were striking, carmine- 
rose Inspiration and our own Mulberry Rose whose name is most descriptive. A newcomer to our 100 Best having a real future is splendid 
Red Amber. The seeker of color should seriously consider Alastor, a kind of cyclamin-pink, most novel and pretty. 
Aubanel and Sandia are considered by some experts the pinkest iris extant. From tones of deep rose to the pink reds we would in- 
clude blended At Dawning, ever popular; darker, more of a self, is colorful Lighthouse, with Monadnock the darkest. A blend variation 
in a broad flower would be Matula. 
Less commonly grown and a neglected iris is Avondale sort of raspberry toned. One of the oldest iris of this section is ever lovely, 
queenly Frieda Mohr. We could not be without her growing in our garden.

A striking color. Using some of these iris your garden will enjoy richness as they are invaluable for accent planting. A liberal 
use of this color can be enjoyed at a modest investment. Three of the finest of this color are most modest in price. We place foremost: 
Indian Hills glossy bishops purple, more brown-cast Directeur Pinelle, a regally cast flower, and smooth finished, almost ebon-hued 
Destiny. An altogether satisfactory trio. Our newest arrival is spectacular Elmohr a rich purple hybrid of Wm. Mohr. Smolder rich 
and deep and its child, Storm King, are two of the finished iris of the kind Col. Nicholls puts out. We must not neglect to mention two 
unusual iris color gems, unexcelled Boris a rich claret and Thelma Jean petunia violet; completely original. A variance possessing perhaps 
the largest size is huge William A. Setchell.
