SHASTA DAISY 
GERMAN IRIS 
Beowulf. Is the nearest true maroon of 
any iris. 
Buechley’s Giant. A truly large flower 
of silky lavender-blue which because 
of its superior size, texture, and plant 
habits has displaced the older “Lord 
of June.” 
Mary Geddes. An American introduction 
to receive an Award of Merit in Eng- 
land also first year highest internat- 
ional honors. Its beauty is hard to de- 
scribe. An attempt would be a lovely 
blending of soft pink tones, overlaid 
Pomeranian red. 
Snowking. Regal in bearing with broadly 
flaring, great white blossoms, lit with 
gold at the throat. Heavy of sub- 
stance, and strong in growing habit. 
Venus de Milo. Dr. Ayres’ gigantic new 
pure white. Honorable Mention Ameri- 
can Iris Society. Considered by many 
the best white. 
William Mohr. Immense blooms of pure, 
delicate lilac, standards flushed darker. 
Any of the above are 50c each, or $5 00 
per dozen.
