Fiesta—38 in. Illustrated above. Just as the prospector strikes 
gold only after long and tedious exploring, so in Iris breeding 
it is the one in many thousands of crosses that produces an 
Iris of the great beauty of Fiesta. It was released recently 
by the introducer at $20.00 a plant, but I now have a 
limited number of plants to offer it for the first time at 
$2.00 each; $20.00 per dozen.

Thanks Again—For Everything 
We wish to again express our appreciation for the co-operation of 
everybody during the 1943 season. There is a tremendous amount 
of detail involved in growing, selling, digging, and shipping hundreds 
of thousands of plants each year in a nation-wide business such as 
ours; and in times like these, with the severe labor shortage, it be- 
comes increasingly difficult to give the sort of service we like to give. 
We feel rather pleased with the way we were able to handle the 
business during 1943; but of course we have no means of knowing 
what lies ahead of us during 1944, excepting that things will get 
tougher. So thanks again for your courtesy and consideration during 
the 1943 season and let us hope that we will not fall down too badly 
during 1944. 
PLACE YOUR ORDERS EARLY 
Give us a “‘break’’ by allowing us ample time to fill your order. 
Rush orders take five or ten times the amount of time to fill, 
because on a rush order we must have a man travel miles and miles, 
back and forward over our Iris ranch picking out one plant here 
and one plant there, whereas our regular routine calls for digging 100 
orders at one time and all plants of a variety on a day’s work are 
therefore dug at one time. This year we will not have the manpower 
necessary to handle rush orders, aside from the tremendous additional 
cost. If orders must be handled special as rush orders, we will 
do so for 50% additional cost. Otherwise all orders will be filled 
in the rotation in which they are received—first come first served. 
Each order will be acknowledged and approximate date of shipment 
given, unless immediate shipment is being made. If there is any 
date when you will not be home to receive the package, please 
advise when order is sent. 
As usual all of our Tall Bearded Iris, Autumn Flowering Iris, 
Miniature Bearded Iris, and Pogocyclus Hybrids will be sent to you 
direct from my Iris Ranch at Grandview, Washington. 
All other Iris and other plant material are grown at my 110 acre 
a ursery in Northern New Jersey, and will be sent to you direct from 
there. 
All orders will be filled with large, strong, healthy, flowering 
size plants and all plants are of course guaranteed true-to- 
name. There is no place in the world where this is more 
carefully guarded than in my gardens and on my farms. 
I always send the finest plants I have of the variety ordered. Each 
variety will of course be properly labeled excepting where othewrise 
specified and they will be carefully packed. 
If you prefer to leave the selection to me, rather than decide 
upon it yourself, just give me an idea of what you would like 
and I will be pleased to give my personal attention to making 
the selection for you as carefully as though it were made for 
my own planting. | am sure you will be more than pleased 
with any selections | make for you. 
All prices are strictly net cash. Prices are per plant, except- 
ing where otherwise noted. 
Planting and cultural directions will accompany all ship- 
ments. 
ROBERT WAYMAN 
FROM PENNSYLVANIA 
“‘About this time last year, from your ‘ads’ in the Philadelphia Inquirer, 
I ordered 2 or 3 special lots of Iris. The plants were received by a gardener 
and planted while I was away for my health. This Spring I saw the finest 
Tris in bloom in my garden sent by you, I had ever seen.”’
