BLUE SHIMMER Charming and capricious, a plicata 
of utmost originality. The handsome blooms are well 
formed with the clearest tone of blue of any iris polka dotted 
and dappled on crisp, enameled white. The plant habit in 
stem, stalk and flower are all very satisfactory. It is one of 
the most distinct iris originated in this class in a long time 
and it will be grown for years as it has that certain intrinsic 
quality that stamps it as outstanding. 15.00 
BLUE TRIUMPH Smooth textured light blue with fine 
stems. 30c; 3 for 75c 
BLUE ZENITH One of the most distinct and individual 
new blue iris, a class in which, generally speaking, varieties 
are often rather similar. Blue Zenith’s lovely light ruffling 
and pleasing campanula blue large flowers combine to give 
a most effective flower. Its growth, hardiness and general 
prolificness are added points of merit. It is proving one of 
the finest of many new blues. We recommend it. $3.50 
BOMBAY High ranking, free flowering and a fitting 
brother to City of Lincoln. Bright and clear yellow 
standards and bright coppery maroon falls. Since good 
variegatas are few this free growing plant is recommended. 
$2.00 
BONSOR A silky deep velvety blue-blue of exceptional 
finish and rich color. We think this is one of the most 
overlooked iris of its color range. There is no iris as deep 
that has so pure and brilliant a hue, rich aniline blue. The 
entire flower has a well tailored look. A handsome combi- 
nation of extraordinary rich color and texture. A complete 
absence of venation accentuates well defined carrying qual- 
ity. Highly recommended. $1.75 
BROWN THRASHER As unusual a color as can be 
imagined, the entire flower glows and glistens with a 
brilliant iridescence. In color it is like a piece of highly 
polished brass or bronze only this flower glistens more as if 
from innumerable sparkles from hidden jewels. The color- 
ing is very smooth. It is a beautiful iris both for its appealing 
coloring and its highly original color value. There is no iris 
like it. $15.00 
BRUNHILDE This grand flower holds its place year 
after year as one of the classics. A very dark, uniform 
self of deepest tones, a rich violet-blue, beautiful in its regal 
simplicity. Unusual bluish beard, well branched stems with 
widely flaring blossoms that have the added interest of 
being very fragrant. An imposing and indispensable aa 
Oc 
BUFFAWN A flaring large buff-fawn blend. Close at hand 
it shows a flesh tinting. Extremely effective as a garden 
clump giving a shrimp to salmon buff foil both lively and 
bright. $1.50 
CALIFORNIA GOLD One of the first big yellows and 
the best of the yellows in its price bracket. Large flower, 
prolific grower and a deep yellow with a hint of brass. 
30c; 3 for 75c 
CALIFORNIA PEACH Melodious pink-peach blend 
with apricot shadings. Impressive, well branched stems, 
long blooming season. $6.50 
CAPTAIN WELLS Luxuriant maroon purple of a fine 
clear color and wonderful habits of growth. It is a rich, 
solidly colored self, one of the darkest and richest iris. 
Late blooming with such a smooth haft and heavy substance 
you will remember it. It is very alive in color and warm 
toned and has a well tailored, finished look about it. 
$5.00 
CAROLINE BURR A delicate colored ivory-white with 
something different in a cream — a soft, mirage-like dash 
of palest green. Large blooms of ideal proportions. $6.00 
CEDAR ROSE Pleasing rich rose-brown self of good 
form and substance and great garden value. $2.50 
CHARM Likeable strawberry rose red. Very broad, large 
flowers heavily substanced. Striking garden alee 
c 
CHEERIO One of the bulwarks of the red color section, 
a bicolor of great brilliancy and splendid form and size. 
It has deservedly been called ‘‘a flame in the garden.” A 
cheerful, friendly iris that we are pleased to recommend. 
30c; 3 for 75c 
CHINA MAID A snatch of grace beyond the reach of 
art, this lovely iris is extremely hard to describe. Practi- 
cally a self of soft mallow pink enhanced by an intriguing 
blending of golden buff at the haft and edges of the petals. 
Of rare charm it is one of the finest pinks having with us 
the fault of not always standing up in hot, windy weather. 
Delicately scented. $1.00; 3 for $2.50 
CHIPPEWA One of the deep yellow ground plicatas with 
brown markings. Standards very heavily suffused and 
dotted brown. California authorities hold this iris in high 
esteem. $12.50 
CHRISTABEL Melodramatic — it is a splendid glowing 
true red. One of the great reds, not alone for individual 
exhibition bloom but in the garden, its size, vigor and flori- 
ferous habit make a clump a perfect mass of glowing copper 
red. It is one of the most effective iris in the garden. 50c 
CITY OF LINCOLN King of the variegatas! The var- 
iegata by which all others are judged. Possesses rich 
golden standards and bright velvety red falls. This is the 
boldest color contrast to be found in irises and makes a 
clump of this variety a very striking focal point in any iris 
picture. City of Lincoln possesses fine height, excellent 
branching, splendid flaring form and equals most of the 
newer irises in size. We are glad to give this variety one of 
our strongest recommendations. $1.50; 3 for $3.75 
COPPER LUSTRE Instantly distinguishable from other 
iris is this giant, odd and beautiful copper toned iris, the 
whole overlain with a golden iridescence. A much discussed 
iris because of its unusual color. 35c; 3 for 90c 
COPPER PINK Beautiful new pink of softest pink 
flushed with sparkling copper and haft dusted gold. A 
leading contestant for tops in the pink class. $10.00 
COPPER ROSE Shimmering rose-copper,  tinsel-like 
with its golden terra cotta glitter from an afterglow-like 
blending of rose, tan and copper. Clean gold haft. Absent 
entirely throughout the flower is any venation which gives 
the flower a smooth silky finish. A flower that stands out 
in any company. $6.00 
CORALIE A charming bicolor of shell pink and light 
rose. 25c; 3 for 60c 
CORAL MIST Another of the very newest fine pinks, 
it has a tinting or cinnamon flush that gives the effect of 
a coral pink shade that is arresting. Fine plant and flower 
habits. $15.00 
CORITICA For artistry, precision and beauty this is the 
outstanding yellow ground plicata. Neat, delicate mark- 
ings are trim and precise, done in a rich warm brown tone. 
Mellow yellow background, a handsome creation. $12.50
