ETHIOP QUEEN (Schreiner 1938) ML. 34”. 
One of the “black” iris. Extremely dark, this dusky 
queen is of almost sooty blackness. Practically a self, the 
sheen of the heavy falls is so lustrous that a large part of 
their area appears literally black, reminding one of the black 
pansies. Heavily substanced with a velvety glistening 
sheen, very rich. $1.00; 3 for $2.50 
EXCLUSIVE (Grant 1937) ML. 40”. 
A distinguished light blue iris considered by many who 
have seen it to be one of the most beautiful in its color 
class. The light blue color which is of great purity is over- 
lain with a silvery mist producing a “powder blue” or French 
blue effect. This very serene iris of opulent oval form is a 
most reposeful color. 60c; 3 for $1.50 
FAIR ELAINE (Mitchell 1938) M. 38”. 
A distinct innovation in the yellow color class, a bi-toned 
yellow. Delightfully fresh and alluring with its full ma- 
jesty of cream-white standards and blazing rich gold falls 
accentuated by a deep gold beard giving this flower a most 
stately effect. Full formed, nice sized blooms, solid, un- 
colored hafts on tall, very well branched stems. A splendid 
achievement. $1.50 
FAIRY LUSTRE (Washington 1940) ML. 36”. 
Mellow primrose yellow self of unusually fine texture and 
very lustrous finish. Domed standards, very nice form 
unmarred by foreign color. $2.50 
FAVORI (Cayeux 1934) M. 30”, 
Rich, fluted true purple. <A striking self color, very 
effective. 25c; 3 for 60c 
FIESTA (White 1936) ML. 34”. 
A coppery-apricot iris of uniform coloring and smoothest 
satiny sheen. The fine oval blooms are borne in great pro- 
fusion. A very lovely iris. $2.00 
FLORA CAMPBELL (Hill 1940) M. 34”. 
An iris of precise styling. The form and carriage are 
magnificent. In effect it gives the impression of restless 
colorings — really glowing with intense, warm tones of 
red-brown and peach-red. A self in color, the more rich 
velvety falls seem a tone darker giving a dramatic accent 
to the flower. $2.00 
FLORA ZENOR (J. Sass 1941) EM. 36”. 
A singular new iris color — palest cameo pink, like the 
foam on a strawberry soda with lines of rosy color at the 
haft. The plant is novel for its color alone. Its small, 
narrow flowers on too tall stems for the flower are unhar- 
monious. It is a breeder’s iris. $10.00 
FLORENTINE (Cayeux 1937) M. 35”. 
An individual plicata. The finely formed flowers are 
entirely dotted, speckled and freckled in an overall effect 
that the flower seems engulfed in flaky blue dust. Very 
good plant habits, misty and cool, yet tranquil. $2.00 
FORT KNOX (Milliken 1941) M. 38”. 
This is rated as one of the finest golden yellows from 
Southern California. It is recommended for the mild por- 
tions of the U.S. It is proving slow and shy blooming in 
many sections of the country. $7.50 
FORTUNE (Kleinsorge 1941) M. 32”. 
Large coppery brown-gold self. Broad formed flowers, 
heavily substanced. Flaring falls add to the distinctive 
svelt lines of a very nice iris. Height moderate, well 
branched. $3.50 
FRANCES DOUGLAS (Gage 1940) M. 32”. 
» A rich blending haze of golden-tan on bewitching back- 
ground of lavender blue. Nicely proportioned plant. $2.50 
FRANK ADAMS (Lapham 1937) M. 48”. 
This flamboyant iris carries its bloom on about as ideally 
spaced and proportioned branches as could be desired. The 
fine form reminds one of the all around excellence of Depute 
Nomblot. It is a rosy fawn bicolor with standards fawn-tan 
blended with pink and falls rose with a tantalizing tan 
undercast giving unusual warmth and vibrancy to its colors. 
60c; 3 for $1.50 
FRECKLES (Becherer 1941) M. 32”. 
A yellow plicata with informal, light chocolate markings 
on a rich cream-yellow back-ground. The small fleckings 
are dextrously and delicately applied giving the flower a 
buoyant charm and a pleasing informality. Reminiscent of 
the old variety King Karl. $3.00 
FRIEDA MOHR (Mohr 1926) ML. 38”. 
One of the aristocrats of the iris world; a large lilac-rose 
bicolor of classic flaring form and splendid texture. This is 
one of the older iris we grow but I would never consider my 
garden complete without Frieda Mohr, one of the all time 
greats. 25c; 3 for 60c 
FROSTY BLUE (Whiting 1941) EM. 38”. 
Calm, cool limpid blue. A delicate shade of near cam- 
panula blue. A self with a sprightly, frosty, silvery lustre 
on heavily substanced petals giving a crisp cool effect. 
Very well branched stems. $5.00 
GARDEN FLAME. (H. Sass 1941) ML. 34”. 
A luminous rich red, perhaps not as red as the Lapham 
reds being a tone closer to garnet, but very rich and lustrous 
and a courtly figure in the garden. Rich self-toned with 
very quiet haft and harmonious yellow beard. $10.00 
GARDEN MAGIC (Grinter 1936) ML. 38”. 
Ranks as one of the very top flight reds as we have 
achieved them in iris. Medium tall stem with flowers of 
smooth, velvety-toned vivid red. Possessing real color ap- 
peal it is as pure red as any iris in commerce today. Rich 
color, good substance, good form. The flowers are full 
formed with hafts solidly colored red and more glossy yel- 
vety falls, handsomely contrasted by the rich beard. Not 
a fast grower, it takes about two years to give its best per- 
formance. $1.25 
GLEN ELLEN (Connell 1939) M. 36”. 
Attractive new luminous golden tan blend. The golden 
tan echoes in tones of bronze-yellow with faint brushings 
of brown and plum. Well branched stems, tall. $2.00 
GLORIOLE (Gage 1933) M. 38”. 
Brittle, cool, sheer — a giant ice-blue of unmatched sub- 
stance overlain with a sparkle like frost crystals. Supremely 
beautiful. 30c; 3 for 75c 
GOLDEN BEAR (Mitchell 1936) ML. 36”. 
Rich golden yellow of medium size without haft markings. 
Remarkably even-toned and smooth in texture. A beau- 
tiful new yellow from the originator of many of our best 
in this color class. 75¢c 
GOLDEN BOW HU. Sass 1935) VE. 26”. 
Long, large flowers of chrome yellow — very rich, 25¢
