EASTER MORN 
MISSOURI (Grinter) 
A little darker than Sierra Blue and not so blue in tone as Shining 
Waters and Early Mass. There is considerable purplish-brown in the 
haft. The newly opened flowers have good substance and the falls 
flare nicely. 3 feet. 50c, 3 for $1.25 
MME. LOUISE AUREAU (Cayeux) 
A striking plicata of silver white, heavily dotted and sanded 
with rosy heliotrope. A very free bloomer with large flaring flowers 
on 2¥2-foot stems. 50c, 3 for $1.25 
MONNIERI (See Spurias, Page 13.) 
MOROCCO ROSE (Loomis) 
One of the very finest of the "’pinks’’. The flowers are large, their 
full size being made apparent by the drapery-like hanging of the 
falls. The plants are vigorous. 3 feet. $1.50, 3 for $3.75 
MOUNT CLOUD (Milliken) 
This iris is particularly clear arid clean in its whiteness; the sur- 
face of the large petal is smooth and polished. The veins in the haft 
accent the unusual purity of this superb iris. It blooms on stems 
more than 50 inches tall and the flowers are 5 inches high by 5 
inches wide. 35c, 3 for 90c 
MOUNTAIN SKY (Milliken) 
This is certainly one of the bluest. A uniform soft blue with a 
suffusion of yellow in the center of the flower that adds a warm 
glow. Both standards and falls wavy. A competent English collec- 
tor wrote us: 
"T like this better than any iris I have ever seen. I think most 
people would. I would term the flowers exquisite and your 
catalogue description of it is most modest. Apart from its beauty, 
two of its outstanding points are long lasting qualities, either 
against bad weather or when used as a cut flower, and its 
fine perfume. The plant you sent me sent up three spikes of 
blooms, is increasing well, and proved absolutely hardy dur- 
ing one of our worst winters.” 
$2.00, 3 for $5.00 
MOZO (C. G. White) 
Mozo is certainly outstanding in the onco-bred group of gem-like 
irises. The ground color of the flower is creamy yellow and both 
standards and falls are strikingly veined in bronze red. The falls 
are darker than the standards to closer veinings. Early. 24 feet. 
75c, 3 for $2.00 
MUSTAPHA (White) 
An interesting variety with an Iran atmosphere. The maroon 
falls flare which is rather exceptional for onco-breds. The signal 
patch is small and velvety. The standards are taupe-gray and 
lavender. Sold this year for the first time and only in “Early Spring 
Collection’’. Onco-bred. 2 feet. See collections. 
NARANJA (Mitchell) 
One of the richest yellows, thanks to the definite orange cast of 
the falls. Distinctly orange while in bud. Strong and rapid grower. 
30c, 3 for 75c 
NATIVIDAD (Mitchell) 
A warm cream self lighted in the center with a glow of soft yel- 
low and sprinkled as with tiny beads of glistening dew. 3 feet. 
3 for 60c 
NEAR EAST (C. G. White) 
The ground color of Near East is a soft creamy yellow and both 
standards and falls are veined and dotted with deep maroon- 
purple. Has medium sized flowers and slender foliage. Hardy. Onco- 
bred. 2 feet. $1.00, 3 for $2.50 
OLD IRONSIDES (Milliken) 
An iris to use where a brilliant clump of color is desired. A com- 
bination of copper, gold, and carmine flowers carried on tall, strong 
stalks. A showy flower with an orange beard. 40 inches tall. 
75c, 3 for $2.00 
ORMOHR (Kleinsorge) 
Giant flowers of a uniform grey-lavender veined violet, almost 
40 inches tall. A faint rosy glow envelops the entire flower and 
unlike its well known parent, William Mohr, it has a tall stem that 
branches near the top and is evidently perfectly hardy and easy to 
grow. $1.50 
PAINTED DESERT (Milliken) 
A flower which has brought to life the brilliant coloring of part 
of the Arizona Mesa. The colored reproduction is the best descrip- 
tion of the results. The plants are strong, the stalks well branched. 
4 feet. Stock limited. $20.00 
PALE MOONLIGHT (Essig) 
Large stately flowers of pale blue, uniform throughout, carried on 
tall sturdy stems. The standards are four inches high, the falls 
slightly flaring and four inches long, and the beard a bright orange. 
For mild climates. 4 feet. See illustration. 35c, 3 for 90c, 12 for $3.00 
PASTORAL (Nies) See Spurias, Page 13. 
PERSIA (Ayres) 
There is something particularly appealing about this lovely blend 
of smoky blue, grey and bronze that grows upon one with each 
renewed acquaintance. Large handsome flowers. 3 feet. 3 for 60c 
PEWEE (Williamson) 
Another of the "table irises,’ and a perfect gem of a tiny pure 
white flower on graceful well-branched stems 17’ high. 3 for 60c 
fi 
PIUTE (Thomas) 
Another iris hailed as one of the most outstanding red irises. ’'It 
is a pure rich red self with not a trace of blue or purple in it.’’ Over 
3 feet tall. 50c, 3 for $1.25 
PRESENT (C. G. White) 
Here is a glimpse of the soft coloring of the Orient embroidered 
in some of the finest and most delicate handiwork of the East. The 
beautifully shaped flowers of firm substance are of pinkish tints, 
with veins and dots set off by a velvety rose signal patch on the 
falls. 22 feet. Onco-bred. : $3.00
