COPPER CASCADE. But add to your mental picture large 
blooms with heavy substance and flaring falls. $1.25 
AIDA (Mitchell 1938) M—36". The floral counterpart of

COPPER LUSTRE (Kirkland 1934) M—30"'. Winner of the

buff, from that breeder who specializes in tones of brown and 
bronze. Flowers large, on well-branched stalks. $5.00 
MIDWEST GEM (H. P. Sass 1937) M—36"'. You will like the

CALIFORNIA GOLD 
YELLOWS, ENRICHED WITH BROWN

SUTTER’S GOLD (Salbach 1941) M—34". A bright yellow 
with heavy brown veins on the haft extending down into the 
falls. We like this Iris as it reminds us of historic Sutter’s Mill, 
only a few miles from our gardens, where Marshall discovered 
gold in ‘48 and started an avalanche of pioneers westward. 
75¢ 
ALTA CALIFORNIA (Mitchell 1931) M—48". The tallest

orange’. Formal, bearing 9 to 11 flowers per stalk. $2.50 
PRINCE OF ORANGE (Kleinsorge 1940) M—32‘’. A gorgeous 
creation in rich golden orange. We have yet to see an Iris 
nearer in tone to a true orange self than this. A ‘45 SYMPO- 
SIUM Iris. Falls flaring, of heavy substance. Produced by cross- 
ing FAR WEST and NARANJA, this outclasses both its parents. 
$2.50 
GOLDEN AMBER (Sturtevant 1937) M—30"’. This one is soft 
amber fawn and gold, not exactly orange, yet it fits better in 
this class than in any other. Admired by many. 65c 
NARANJA (Mitchell 1935) L—36". The only inexpensive 
Iris approaching orange. Has often been described as an orange 
Iris. Actually it is a splendid orange-yel’ow, with falls flushed 
reddish brown. Probably very different from any Iris in your 
garden, and a fine acquisition at this low price. 35c

GOLDEN MAJESTY (Salbach 1938) M—42"’. The least expen- 
sive of all the bright yellow Iris that won a place in the ‘45 SYM- 
POSIUM. Few are so nearly perfect in many respects, for this 
has color, ideal form, substance, wonderful poise, adaptability, 
and a haunting fragrance. A real value at only $1.00 
SONG OF GOLD (Essig 1937) EM—38”. If you like Iris in the 
modern style. with flaring falls, this one is hard to beat.\’A 
soft yet bright yellow self of distinction. Large, well-branched.

less yellow, much sought because it blooms over a long period.

price. 40c 
CALIFORNIA GOLD (Mitchell 1933) M—36’'. A beautiful 
bright yellow with striking metallic sheen. Flowers large and 
of faultless form. Noteworthy for its very commendable ten- 
dency to bloom again in the fall, and sometimes more or less 
all winter in mild climates. In the arid West, summer watering 
helps to favor autumn bloom. Unquestionably the best all- 
around yellow at a moderate price. Plant liberally. 
40c; 3 for $1.00
