GOLD BEATER (Kleinsorge 1944) M. Solidly colored 
chrome yellow self that has been given high praise by many 
A. I. S. judges. It is a very bright deep yellow without 
marking or blending of any other color. The buds are espe- 
cially attractive on account of their intense coloring. In- 
creases rapidly, and the large flowers are well spaced on 
excellent branching stalks. H. M., A. I. S. 1945. Per. R. 
88 1946. 36 in. $7.50 
GOLDEN EAGLE (D. Hall 1942) M. A large luminous 
yellow with a satiny finish. It is a very unusual yellow 
for it has a particular quality that seems to put life and bril- 
liance into a light yellow and yet there is no hint of orange

GOLDEN EPAULETS (Grant 1946) M. L. A new white and 
gold iris of extremely heavy substance, full rounded form 
and as smoothly finished as a piece of polished ivory. The 
standards are broad and very firmly held; the falls are full 
and flaring and the neat heavy flush of gold on the haft 
is as trim and precise as the epaulets on a uniform. The love- 
liness of this warm white is enhanced by the smooth firm 
finish, and the infusion of gold in the throat and beard. 
Good branching and increases rapidly. 38 in. $12.50 
GOLDEN FLEECE (J. Sass 1940) M. A well known iris of 
cool lemon cream intensified by deeper lemon at the haft 
and around the edge of the falls. The graceful ruffled form 
and elusive coloring make it a great favorite. H. M., A. I. 8S.

strong sturdy growth. R. 88 1946. 465 in. $12.50

GOLDEN SPANGLE (Cassebeer 1944) E. M. Deeper yel-

lavender pink. Refined trimly rounded flowers evenly 
spaced on well branched stalks. 38 in, $5,00

of Chamois and Bryce Canyon, and while not quite as tall, 
its brilliant color and floriferousness more than make up 
for this. A rich mustard gold self with very wide domed

copper on the fluted edges. Beard is dull gold. Good 
branching. 33 in. $10.00

won high acclaim from iris enthusiasts in many parts of the

the beard is blue. While all dark blue iris have some purple 
in their pigment, this one is much more blue than any very 
dark iris that I have seen. The medium sized flowers are 
well shaped and have exceptionally firm texture. Vigorous 
growth and thoroughly hardy. H.C., A. I. S. 1945. H. M..,

GYPSY (Kleinsorge 1944) L. Very late flowering iris that

HELEN McGREGOR (Graves 1946) M. L. Seldom has an iris 
been greeted with such enthusiastic praise as Helen McGregor. 
The color is clear blue, lighter than Great Lakes and with 
not a trace of lavender in it. The flowers are large of 
rounded form with very broad hafts and beautiful ruffling 
on the border of both standards and falls. There is a silvery 
white flush surrounding the almost white beard that en- 
hances the beauty of the blooms. The flowers have excep- 
tionally heavy substance and the very sturdy stalks are 
adequately branched to display the blooms but it is possible 
that the first year after planting they may not reach their 
full height. The refinement of form and beauty of color 
are ideal and quite different from any other iris. H. C.,

stance, and texture. The stalks are tall and well branched.
