ELSA SASS (H. Sass 1939) M. 36”. 
Enticing ‘‘lemon-ice” toned yellow, an entirely new shade 
of yellow. Cool and frost-like, a shade of sulphur yellow 
with a white blaze near the haft. A refreshing, beautiful 
iris. Elongated blooms, medium size, frilled at the edges. 
One of the most striking iris the Sasses have released. 
$1.50 
ETHELWYN DUBUAR (Lapham 1932) ML. 34”. 
A large flowered orchid pink with soft lemon yellow beard. 
Attractive, broad, lightly fluted petals. 30c: 3 for 75c 
ETHELYN KLEITZ (Gage 1940) E. 36”. 
A light red, hydrangea red with an imperceptible blend- 
ing of gold tan. It carries as blended raspberry red. $1.00 
ETHIOP QUEEN (Schreiner 1938) ML. 34”. 
One of the “black” iris. Extremely dark, almost sooty 
black. Practically a self with such lustrous, heavy, velvety 
falls that a large portion appears literally black. Good sub- 
stance with a rich glistening sheen. $1.00 
EXGEUSIViEs(GrantelO3 7) e3oue 
A distinguished light blue iris quite different from other 
blues. A light blue color which is of great purity is overlain 
with a silvery mist producing a ‘powder blue’’ or French 
blue effect. This serene iris of opulent oval form and 
enamel-like finish is a most reposeful color. 
60c; 3 for $1.50 
EXTRAVAGANZA (G. Douglas 1944) VL. 36”. 
A new amoena of cream white standards and rich velvety 
prune-plum falls with a copper intensification toward the 
haft and the edge of the petals. So late flowering many 
people miss this most striking new iris. We consider it one 
of the most unusual new iris we have seen. $25.00 
FAIR ELAINE (Mitchell 1938) M. 35”. 
A distinct innovation in the yellow color class, a bi-tone. 
Fresh and alluring, a pale primrose to cream-white standard 
and blazing rich gold falls accentuated by a deep blazing 
beard. A variety that is absolutely an innovation in the 
yellows. $1.50 
FLAMELY (P. Cook 1943) M. 36”. 
Radiant red self with an incandescence to the entire 
flower given by the orange-red cast. A slight bicolor with 
falls a bit more garnet brown. Medium large flowers of 
good shape and texture. One of Paul Cook’s fine reds. 
5.00 
FLORA CAMPBELL (Hill 1940) ML. 34”. 
Beautifully styled rich russet-red to peach-red. The more 
velvety falls which flare strikingly are a tone darker giving 
a dramatic accent. $2.00 
FLORA ZENOR (J. Sass 1941) EM. 40”. 
A singular new iris color — melting pink, like foam on a 
strawberry soda, with deeper lines of rose at the haft. A 
rich startling tangerine beard. Novel for color alone as the 
flowers are too small for the stems. An iris to be enjoyed 
as a clump for its novel coloring. A breeder’s iris. $3.00 
FLORENTINE (Cayeux 1937) M. 37”. 
Individually different —a plicata entirely dotted and 
speckled and freckled in an overall effect that the flower 
seems engulfed in flaky blue dust. Large sized flowers, good 
plant habits. $2.00 
FRANCELIA (McKee 1944) M. 38”. 
New bright chrome yellow from Massachusetts. Bright 
chrome with roundly domed standards and semi-flaring falls 
enlivened by a rich heavy beard. Good substance, branch- 
ing and stalk habit and a reliable clear yellow. $12.00 
FRANK ADAMS (Lapham 1937) M. 48”. 
This flamboyant iris carries its bloom on about as ideally 
spaced and proportioned branches as could be desired. The 
fine form reminds one of the all around excellence of Depute 
Nomblot. It is a rosy fawn-tan blended with pink and falls 
rose with a tantalizing tan undercast giving unusual warmth 
and vibrancy to its colors. 75c 
FRECKLES (Becherer 1941) M. 32”. 
A yellow plicata with light chocolate markings and fleck- 
ings on a rich creamy-yellow background. Reminiscent of 
the old variety King Karl. $2.00 
FRIEDA MOHR (Mohr 1926) ML. 38”. 
One of the aristocrats of the iris world. A large lilac-rose 
bicolor of classic flaring form and splendid texture. This is 
one of the oldest iris we grow but I would never consider 
my garden complete without Frieda Mohr, one of the all 
time greats. 35c 
FROSTED GLASS (Becherer 1943) EM. 38”. 
A fascinating iris which beggars description both for its 
pale opalescent cream coloring with a pearliness contributed 
by the very frost-like iridescence and a finish that is alto- 
gether novel. Fine form, ideally branched stems. $5.00 
FROSTY BLUE (Whiting 1941) EM. 38”. 
Calm, cool, limpid blue. A delicate shade of blue near 
campanula blue. A self with a sprightly, frosty, silvery 
lustre on heavily substanced petals giving a crisp, cool ef- 
fect. Very well branched stems. $5.0 
GARDEN FLAME (UH. Sass 1941) ML. 34”. 
A rich garnet red iris being more a rich rose than red. A 
deep rose and brown area near the center of the large, broad 
falls. A handsome iris different because it does not have a 
copper cast to the flowers. $10.00 
GARDEN GLORY (Whiting 1943) ML. 33”. 
A pure, enameled rich bordeaux red, one of the most 
stylish of the new reds. Very near true red in a deep regis- 
ter; pure, deep and rich. No haft venation, smoothly fin- 
ished, not tall or large. A real favorite. $10.00 
GARDEN MAGIC GGrinter 1936) ML. 38”. 
One of the top flight reds. Flowers of smooth, velvety- 
toned vivid red on medium tall stems. Rich color, good 
substance, good form. The flowers are full formed with 
hafts solidly colored red and more glossy velvety falls 
handsomely contrasted by the rich beard. Not a fast grower, 
it takes about two years to give its best performance. 
$1.50 
GAYOSO (Williams 1943) M. 36”. 
A bright vivid colored yellow iris, a deep shade of yellow. 
Mr. Williams has been working for years with Golden Hind 
and this frilled iris is his pick as the best of the lot. $5.00 
GLEN ELLEN (Connell 1939) ML. 36”. 
Attractive, luminous old ivory washed burnished tan. 
The golden tan echoes in tones of copper brown with faint 
brushings of brown and plum. $1.50 
GLORIOLE (Gage 1933) M. 38”. 
Brittle, cool, sheer — a giant ice-blue of unmatched sub- 
stance overlain with a sparkle like frost crystals. Supremely 
beautiful. 50c 
GOLDBEATER (Kleinsorge 1944) M. 36”. 
Solidly colored chrome yellow without markings or blend- 
ings of any kind. Very large flowers on excellent branched 
stems. A novel effect is given to a clump of this iris by the 
bright dabs of deep yellow the buds themselves make. Very 
highly praised by the iris judges. $10.00
