I am again offering the very good iris for your gardens, and for hybrid- 
izing purposes. I continue to discard all inferior varieties. 
This year I have selected two iris for introduction which I feel are dis- 
tinct enough to merit a place among the fine named varieties. Mount Timp is 
a very large early cream ground plicata with orchid-lavender-red edging. Pro- 
vost is something different in the orchid class. It is so different I am introduc- 
ing it this year rather than next, therefore the price is high. 
I have only very limited stocks, but what I send out will be first class 
rhizomes only and guaranteed true to name. We do not grow enough for 
wholesale. Stock of some varieties is scaree and prices have been maintained 
by all the growers. We do not make collection offers, but if you will give us 
a list of alternates these may be included among the “extras” in your order. 
If sold out of any variety we will refund, unless you make other selections. 
Shipping will start July 15th and continue until late September. 
Terms: Cash with order. Postage paid on all orders of $3.00 or more. If 
for less add 25c for packing and postage. 
Join the American Iris Society, 821 Washington Loan and Trust Bldg., 
Washington, D. C. Or send your $3.00 to me and I will include a fine num- 
bered seedling of my own which you will be proud to grow in your garden.

OUR 1945 INTRODUCTIONS 
MOUNT TIMP (Muhlestein 1945) (October Opera x Tiffany) 
Essentially a white plicata, but there is a hint of cream in the falls. The 
flowers are large on well branched stalks 30 inches or a little higher. The 
plicata pattern is of a bright rosy--lavender red. Sweet fragrance. 1 made this 
cross with the hopes of getting a re-bloomer with a plicata pattern, but I have 
moved my plants and have not been able to leave a clump to see if this charac- 
teristic has been inherited. I am hoping this will be manifest in the warmer 
states, however, at least. Early. Price $15.00 each. 
PROVOST (Muhlestein 1945) (Fort Knox x Dr. Loomis’ seedling “Type Dore” 
which is a seedling of Sea Shell) 
Here is a new color-pattern in the lavender class. Standards and falls 
same even lavender-orchid. There seems to be a slight amount of buff some- 
where in the color, but difficult to isolate. The falls are edged with buff. Flow- 
ers are large and waved in form. Heavy substance. Sweet fragrance. Excel- 
lent branching. Height 41 inches. Because of the Sea Shell blood back of it 
this one will undoubtedly prove valuable as a breeder. 
Stock limited. One to a customer only. Price $50.00 each.
