SHANNOPIN (Pillow 1940) M. 40”. 
A striking iris and most original, close to a cream and rose 
amoena. Clear cream ruffled standards with pink to rose 
cast falls, medium .ized flowers. $3.00 
SHINING WATERS (Essig 1933) M. 36”. 
Still as a mountain lake at sundown, reflecting an un- 
clouded blue, is the halcyon sheen of this exquisite iris. 
The blooms, carried on tall, well-branched stems, are won- 
derfully symmetrical and alluring. Among the loveliest of 
all blue iris, and worthy of the extra protection its slight 
tenderness may require. 35c 
SIEGFRIED (H. Sass 1936) L. 40”. 
The pioneer of the yellow-ground plicatas. A very large 
flower stippled and dotted brown on both the yellow stand- 
ards and the creamy falls with a touch of fluting and ruffling 
throughout. Height and branching are excellent. A re- 
markable color advance. 50c; 3 for $1.25 
SIERRA BLUE (Essig 1932) ML. 40”. 
A slightly deeper-toned companion of Shining Waters 
A smoothly lacquered medium-blue with broad, flaring falls 
of unusual length. A true self-color that is really magnifi- 
cent in the clump. A good performer everywhere. The 
Dykes Medal winner for 1935. 30c; 3 for 75c 
SILVER TWILIGHT (Schreiner 1941) EM. 34”. 
Frosty silver-lilac with a subtle flush of pale, nymph-like 
pink. A light fluting gives the blooms an airy carriage. A 
delicate shade withstanding hot weather surprisingly well. 
$2.50 
SIR KNIGHT. (Ashley 1934) M. 36”. 
A large, deep violet self of glossy texture. Standards 
domed, falls flaring. 25c; 3 for 60c 
SMOLDER (Nicholls 1937) ML. 38”. 
Classically formed, trim and imposing, this iris is a deep, 
monastic black-purple self with an underglow of red. The 
richness of texture is enhanced by a velvety finish, particu- 
larly in the falls. Large flowers with well domed standards, 
falls curve out and down very gracefully. ‘Tall, nicely 
branched and late blooming. $1.00 
SNOQUALMIE (Brehm 1938) M. 36”. 
There has been considerable interest in cream iris and of 
the many Snoqualmie is one of the very best. It reminds 
one of the thick cream on a crock of rich Jersey milk. And 
just like this rich, luscious cream which seems to have so 
much body, this iris is heavily substanced. Large size and 
flaring falls. $1.00 
SNOW CARNIVAL (Graves 1942) M. 38”. 
This outstanding ruffled white was one of the nicest new 
iris we grew on test last season. Possesses balance and 
beauty, a splendid, striking cold white whose frilled form, 
large flowers and nice branched stem combine to give an 
iris Dr. Graves can indeed be proud of. Clearly colored, it 
promises much. $12.50 
SNOW FLURRY (Rees 1939) EM. 40”. 
Like an enveloping soft snow spray, we have the per- 
fectly formed blooms of Snow Flurry. A beautiful ruffled 
blue-white. The unopened buds are lightly tinted blue but 
the bloom opens a cool white. Large flowers, striking in 
the many blossoms it has per stem, strong substanced and 
long lasting. Not widely branched the ruffled flowers are 
beautiful. $5.00 
SNOWKING UU. Sass 1935) ML. 38”. 
A king indeed! Radiant as sun on arctic snows, this 
serenely poised giant, of glacial purity and regal carriage, 
DrORVCE RES 
CR Aelia Ge Dy 
is generally recognized as one of the top notch white iris 
of today. It is ideal in stem and branching and, fortunately, 
of a rugged hardiness. 35c; 3 for 90c 
SNOW SENTINEL (Baker 1942) M. 50”. 
A new white developed in the East. The huge flowers 
are well proportioned; flaring falls and domed standards. 
The waxy substance is heavy and very weather resistant 
both to wind and rain. A glistening foil to the clear white 
color is the orange-yellow beard which brightens the entire 
flower. A glitter of gold upon the falls. $6.00 
SONG OF GOLD (Essig 1937) M. 34”. 
This iris is a pure medium tone of yellow. A self, its 
rippling color suggests the fluid grace of the flower as a 
whole. Individual in the yellows because it has such pro- 
nounced flaring falls. The only iris of this color with this 
type of carriage, it reminds one of a yellow, stiffer Shining 
Waters. It is not tall but is well branched and has fine 
textured flowers very pleasantly scented. 
$1.00; 3 for $2.50 
SONNY BOY (Kirkland 1939) EM. 34”. 
Dr. Kirkland has produced a series of coppery blends for 
which he is known throughout the iris world. Twinkling 
with light and life these unusually colored coppery blends 
in varying tints are very well received. Sonny Boy is our 
selection as about the finest of the entire series of this color; 
a brighter and larger King Midas, a lovely color. $1.25 
SOQUEL (Reinelt 1940) EM. 28”. 
Light colored Wm. Mohr development. Large and well 
formed blooms; fine, broad foliage and a good grower. 
SOUTHLAND (H. Sass 1934) VE. 28”. 
Deep yellow-chrome in color. Good sized flower and a 
dependable fall blooming variety in sections where these 
iris bloom again. 25c 
SPOKAN (J. Sass 1933) M. 34”. 
Huge glowing red-brown. ‘The falls are similar but 
slightly deeper in shade. A rich, velvety flower that makes 
a very rich looking clump in the garden. 25c; 3 for 60c 
SPRING GLOW (Schreiner 1942) VE. 28”. 
Very early flowering fine red-brown intermediate. A 
seedling of Cheerio, it is a gorgeous maroon brown — a color 
nearly unobtainable in this group. $2.00 
SPRING SECRETARY (White 1941) M. 38”. 
A sleek intermingling of chamois and tinted lilac. The 
ground color is old gold shaded lilac with a tawny cast in 
the hafts tinged brown. A very lovely smooth flower of 
clean pure colors. $2.50 
SPUN GOLD (Glutzbeck 1940) ML. 38”. 
A breath-taking, significant introduction. Striking, 
gleaming velvety yellow with the glistening thick texture 
we generally associate with the darker colored iris. Moulded 
in a perfection of form, styling and color — deep golden 
yellow with the vibrancy and dash of brilliant shining gold. 
The petals have a thick, plush-like body and texture, 
standards and falls very broad of the same shade of yellow. 
No veining or shading mars the purity of coloring which is 
gloriously enhanced by the rich beard. 
It is a sensational creation glowing like a golden comet. 
Good sized, well formed flowers distributed on branched, 
very sturdy stems. The last word in yellows well provided 
with lustrous velvety texture of petals in which respect it 
stands alone. A highwater mark in iris hybridizing achieve- 
ment. $7.50
