OUR INTRODUCTIONS (Cont'd) 
AMBER BEADS. ML; 40”. Golden amber. Open standards of 
medium yellow; down-falling falls of bronze-gold, washed brown, 
and occasionally flecked maroon; veining on light ground prom- 
inent around beard at haft; conspicuous golden orange beard. 
Slightly fragrant, large flowers on good stalks. The amber color 
is unique and different, attracting the eye for yards distant. 50c 
BEAUTY’S SHRINE. E; 36’. Pure white. Closed S. of white; semi- 
flaring falls of white, faintly tinged blue; fragrant gigantic flowers 
on well-branched stalks. $1.00 
BLENDED FEAUTY. ML; 40”. Yellow-rose blend. Closed standards 
of yellow-buff, washed and veined deep rose; conspicuous vein- 
ing on white ground at haft; average appearing gold beard. Large 
blossoms on perfectly branched and exceptionally heavy stalks. 
This splendid flower is considered to be a vastly superior variety 
cf the Mary Geddes color class. 40c 
BLUE SKYSCRAPER (Nat’l.) E; 50”. The outstanding characteristic 
of this lovely variety is its uniform height, placing it among the 
select group of very tallest iris. The stalks are particularly well- 
branched and bear quite large flowers whose S. are medium 
blue and whose F. are of the same color, but slightly tinged 
violet. The F. are semi-flaring with a beard of light gold. 50c 

BROWNGREY BLEND (Nat'l.) M; 44’. Brown and gray. Closed 
standards and semi-flaring falls of brown-gray, with some vein- 
ing on yellow ground seen at haft. Slightly fragrant, large flowers 
on good stalks. We consider this variety to be the peer of dark 
blends. 75c 
CLARET VELVET. EM; 32”. Wine red. Closed standards of dark 
maroon-red; very velvety, flaring falls of dark maroon-red, with 

IRIS, HEMEROCALLIS, POPPIES 
no veining whatever visible; inconspicuous burnt gold beard. 
Slightly fragrant, large flowers on short, well-branched stalks. 
This introduction is a deep, dark wine red self, the same color 
hue as a glass of claret wine. We never have s 
anywhere similar color shading. Rating 86. 
EVOLVED. M; 48”. Bronze-violet blend. Closed standards of 
bronze, suffused with violet; down-falling falls of light violet, 
edged bronze-brown; average appearing gold beard; brown vein- 
ing on amber ground conspicuous at haft. Slightly fragrant, large 
flowers on extra-good, tall stalks. $1.00 
FALL BEAUTY (Nat'l.) 34”. Violet-bronze-brown blend. Slightly open 
standards of bronze-brown, lightly washed violet; semi-flaring 
falls of violet-blue, edged bronze-brown; petals are slightly 
crinkled; short gold beard. Slightly fragrant, good-sized flowers 
on well-branched stalks. Fall Beauty is the MOST DEPENDABLE 
TWICE-BLOOMER in existence, as well as ranking among the 
outstanding beauties of the garden. $3.00 
FIREBRAND. VL; 42". Gold-red bicolor. Closed standards of dark 
gold-bronze, lightly washed red; very velvety, ruffled, down- 
falling falls of dark red, with no undertoning; red veining on 
prominent gold ground seen at haft; conspicuous bright orange 
beard. Strong, well-branched stalks bear seven large, non-fra- 
grant blossoms. This variety is particularly valuable because of 
its extreme lateness to bloom. $3.00 
FOREST AFLAME. (Nat'l.) VL; 35’. Standards closed; falls semi- 
flaring; inconspicuous orange beard; strong fragrance; size 
gigantic; extra well-branched stalks. This huge flower has stan- 
dards of bronze-brown, strongly suffused red, and falls of velvety 
chestnut red-brown. An excellent characteristic of this new orig- 
ination is its extreme lateness to bloom—flowering when nearly 
all other varieties have faded into memory. $1.50
