BEVERLY HILLS (Milliken) 
This variety is very effective in the garden. The vinaceous 
and mallow shades produce a strong pink tone which is notice- 
able at a distance. The carrying quality of the flower is aided 
by the coloring of the standards being as deep as that of the 
falls. The flowers are large and hold their shape well. 2% to 
3 feet. $1.50; 3 for $3.75; 12 for $13.50 
BLUE CRYSTAL (Milliken)

higher each time you see it. Virginia comments: One of the 
most striking vivid dark irises I have ever seen.

BLUE RIVER (Milliken) 
A uniform deep blue, one of the bluest. It blooms early, along 
with the intermediates. With us here in Southern California it 
usually flowers throughout the winter. The flowers are of me- 
dium size, well rounded form, and are carried on well-branched 
stems. The fragrance is delightful. 214 feet. 
$1.00; 3 for $2.50; 12 for $8.50 — 
BLUE SHIMMER (J. Sass) 
There are many blue plicatas, white with a blue buttonhole 
stitch around the borders of the petals, but this variety at once 
strikes one as something different and very beautiful. Fine blue 
dots soften the coarser stitching and make the blue framework 
to the white centers of the petals very pleasing. Flowers are 
large. 3 feet. $7.50 
BLUE SPIRE (Milliken) 
This is a blue iris that seems to possess all the qualites of 
perfection. Blue Spire is tall and stately. It has large, beauti- 
fully-shaped flowers of the clearest, cleanest shade of medium

many other irises, and other flowers. See illustration, page 13.

BUDDHA (Milliken) 
This exceptionally large bronze is impressive in its somber 
brown tones. It suggested to us the quiet dignity of the image 
whose name it bears. It has strength not brilliancy, calmness 
not gaiety. It stands out in the crowd around it and one re- 
members it. 40 inches. $2.00; 3 for $5.00; 12 for $17.50 
BUFFAWN (Andrews)
