BUTTERFLY WINGS (White). The 
color in this iris is a definite departure 
from the usual. The standards are trans- 
lucent, reminding one of old, translucent 
glass. The color is pale lilac, blending 
to deeper at the tops of the petals. The 
falls are yellow on the under side with 
green ribs but on the upper side the 
ground is white heavily straited all the 
way from the beard to the edge of the 
petals, hence its name. This striation is 
golden. brown except for the veins which 
start near the point of the beard. These 
are red-lilac, carrying the color harmony 
from the lower part of the falls to the 
top of the standards. The standards 
are charmingly ruffled and the whole 
flower is extremely graceful on slender, 
but rigid, well-branched stalks 36 inches 
tall. It is a very attractive and appeal- 
ing iris. Each $15.00.
