CHOIR BOY 
See page | for full description 
CASCADE SPLENDOR (Kleinsorge 1945) L. 38”. 
A very colorful crimped flower that mingles pink, apricot 
and tan smoothly into one color. Pleasant form with the 
blending of pink more noticeable at the edge of the petals 
contrasting with the orange beard and yellow style arms in 
a delectable way. Heavily substanced; heavy, tall stalks. 
$15.00 
CEDAR ROSE (Whiting 1941) M. 36”. 
Pleasing rich rose-brown self of good form and substance. 
Fine warm coloring and great garden value. $2.00 
CHAMOIS (Kleinsorge 1944) M. 34”. 
Most appropriately named. As its name implies a pure 
chamois self, standards and falls without a vein or marking. 
An iris of distinction and refinement. Well substanced for 
its large size; excellent form, petals slightly waved. Very 
novel and different, one of the finest pastels. $15.00 
CHANTILLY (Hall 1945) M. 36”. 
The crinkled and ruffled iris. The interesting point about 
this iris is its creamy lace edging crocheted on standards, 
falls and style arms. Inferior to others in the orchid class 
except for this most interesting character, it is different like 
a parrot tulip. An iris of particular interest to hybridizers. 
$12.00 
CHEERIO (Ayres 1934) E. 40”. 
One of the most satisfactory reds, a bicolor of great bril- 
liancy and good form and size. A cheerful and friendly iris, 
vigorous and dependable and one of the most popular iris 
we grow. 35c; 3 for 90c 
CHICORY BLUE (Douglas 1942) EM. 38”. 
Large chicory blue self with closely domed standards and 
broad flaring falls. Much talked of in the south, inclined to 
be a bit weak stemmed for us. $5.00 
CHIEF POKING FIRE (DeForest 1942) ML. 35”. 
A red heavily blended with a copper yellow undertone; a 
sort of brick red which carries redder in the distance, rounded 
petals, $3.00 
CHINA MAID (Milliken 1936) E. 36”. 
Noble, soft mallow pink self enhanced by an intriguing 
blending of golden buff at the haft and edges of the petals. 
Of rare charm, a luscious color, rampant grower. With us 
it does not stand-up in hot, windy weather. 
$1.00; 3 for $2.50 
CHIPPEWA (Salbach 1943) M. 32”. 
The soft yellow plicata dotted brown from California. 
The markings are a light clear tone. $2.50 
CHIVALRY (Wills 1944) ML. 36”. 
Rated by an overwhelming number of iris experts as the 
outstanding iris in the medium blue range. A finished iris 
of excellent form, slightly ruffled, a metallic blue. It is 
probably the most sought after iris in America. Our limited 
stock permits us to offer only a few rhizomes of this won- 
derful iris for 1948 delivery. 
CHRISTABEL (Lapham 1936) M. 38”. 
Melodramatic — a splendid growing true red. One of the 
great reds not only for individual exhibition bloom but for 
the garden also. Its size, vigor and floriferous habit make 
a clump a perfect mass of glowing copper red. It is one of 
the most effective iris in the garden. 75¢c 
Clin Ore EINGCOENM(Eissass1937)e Miley 42 2 
King of the variegatas! The variegata by which all others 
are judged. Possesses rich golden standards and bright 
velvety falls. This is the boldest color contrast to be found 
in irises and makes a clump of this variety a very striking 
focal point in any iris picture. Possessing fine height, ex- 
cellent branching, splendid flaring form, it equals most of 
the newer iris in size. We are glad to give this variety one 
of our strongest recommendations. $1.00; 3 for $2.50 
COPPER GLOW (Douglas 1945) ML. 37”. 
About the finest copper iris we have seen; a copper that 
glows bright copper brown, fairly deep in color yet brilliant. 
It makes a spectacular flower, smoothly finished, heavily 
substanced. The dark green foliage and the rich copper 
brown flowers make a stunning garden picture. $18.50 
COPPER LUSTRE (Kirkland 1934) M. 36”. 
Instantly distinguishable from other iris is this large, odd 
and beautiful copper-toned iris the whole overlain with a 
golden iridescence. A much liked iris because of its unusual 
color. 50c; 3 for $1.25 
COPPER PINK (Kellogg 1941) M. 36”. 
Beautiful soft pink flushed sparkling copper with haft 
dusted gold. A blue shading on the midrib with an orange 
brown beard completes this harmonious combination. 
$3.00 
COPPER RIVER (DeForest 1945) M. 36”. 
As if it were bespangled with the brightest glowing copper 
this glistening tan with an overlay of bright new-penny 
copper surely has the accent on color. In some lights this 
bright shade seems to reflect a tone of henna. In the very 
bright sun it pales some. Flaring form, nicely branched 
stems, an unusual and bright color. $15.00 
GOPRPER, ROSE (PYGoole 1941) Ms 337 
Shimmering rose-copper, tinsel-like with its golden terra- 
cotta glitter from an afterglow like blending of rose, tan and 
copper. Clean gold haft. Entirely absent throughout the 
flower is any venation which gives the flower a smooth, 
silky flnish. A flower that stands out in any company.
