Probably the best all-around brown is Lowvois called rhe brown iris. A handsome newcomer, sensational Brown Thrasher is novel in 
tone. For brilliancy and cheeriness Sonny Boy and richly colored Beowulf are two very fine browns, totally dissimilar. This class is 
numerically small but in color very different. Depute Nomblot is fine, tall and reliable.

Spectacular improvement and enlargement has been noticed in several different approaches toward red pigmented iris. In comparing 
the sub groups in this years catalog you will notice a reassortment of material. 
Principally the band of color that is the most original has been the creation of our copper and near orange-red iris. Brilliantly 
colored Radiant is well known. Newer Wakarusa brilliant, pink-orange-copper is unique. Softer looking like a newly minted penny 
is Copper Rose; another splendid sort. Flora Campbell reminds one of a full colored cling peach. 
One of the most striking red iris and a visable red progression is dynamic Edward Lapham. We yearly feel that Christabel remains 
one of the finest reds. Older and reliable, early flowering Cheerio deserves high praise. Perhaps just a tint deeper, Setting Sun when seen 
Gen the rays of the sun shining through it is so fiery it is claimed by many to be the purest red yet developed. Spokan is a huge copper- 
red-brown. 
The varieties of the Ruby sub-division are all true colored reds of uniformly high quality. Garden Magic is one of our very great 
favorites, rich and velvety and so imposing. More of a bicolor Marco Polo is a fresh colored, sprightly type. Its standards are more 
tinted rose than red. Junaluska is similar only lighter and profusely blended with yellow. Crimson Tide is an overlooked red iris, a 
full bodied, flaring flower. Piute, not large, has a gleam-like quality to its deep cast. 
Perhaps this last division and the one just mentioned are very close but a hint of purple does enter into their makeup here. The 
Red Douglas a beautiful plush red would be a beautiful iris no matter what color it was. It is all the more exciting being Shs range. 
Red Valor a garnet shade is unusual. Two older, yet all time reliables, are Ethel Peckham and Joycette, our Damon and Pythias of irisdom. 
New Garden Flame gives a lovely garden effect, moderately tall.
