DUBROVNIK. (Williamson 1938) M. 36”. 
A deep rose tinged with yellow blend. It has some blue 
too but this is subdued by the gold-copper-rose effect. The 
finish in very smooth. 75c; 3 for $2.00 
DUET (Grant 1942) M. 37”. 
In some lights this iris comes closer to a true approxima- 
tion of a blue blended with yellow than any other. Both 
the standards and falls have a wide zone of honey beige 
blending on the violet-blue coloring. In this respect it 
stands alone as there are very few iris of this coloring. Most 
have the combination of pink in the blend. We think it 
quite original. $4.00 
E. B. WILLIAMSON (Cook 1937) M. 36”. 
Spirited, coppery red. A crimson red that reflects the 
light like burnished copper. Sparkles from its silken finish 
in many hues. A prolific flowering, satisfactory red iris. 
50c; 3 for $1.25 
EDWARD LAPHAM (Lapham 1942) ML. 36”. 
A top notch red, about the reddest iris in existence, un- 
believably pure toned. The uniformity of color, a self even 
to the haft and throat of the flower, all smoothly colored, 
instantly singles it out. The coloring is a rich, glossy crim- 
son. Trimly tailored flowers with a dramatic finished look. 
One of the reddest iris from the hand of a hybridizer whose 
specialty is producing iris such as Christabel, Red Gleam, 
Wakarusa. Edward Lapham is distinctly different from any 
of these. $7.50 
ELLA CALLIS (H. Sass 1942) M. 36”. 
A brilliant long-shaped flower — so gypsy like in color. 
A deep chrome yellow with a vivid overlay of orange copper. 
The colors are applied with a dash and whirl. It is startling, 
so bright it requires careful placement in the garden. 
ELMOHR (Loomis 1942) ML. 36”. 
To see a huge bloom of this iris unfold one can understand 
why this has been one of the most exciting and talked of 
iris we have grown in years. The most sensational seedling 
of Wm. Mohr, it is an exquisite shade of rich, reddish mul- 
berry incredibly glossy and lustrous; the color seems to 
smolder as if some interior source of light were seeping out 
of imprisonment. There is an unforgetable distinction in 
Wm. Mohr’s rounded form and unique manner of venation 
and this is inherited by this flower in a rich color pattern. 
Fine sturdy stems, branched, clean foliage. A good garden 
iris and an iris that will thrill anyone who sees it, we are 
proud to have assisted in introducing this iris to commerce. 
$2.00; 3 for $5.00 
EL MOROCCO (Becherer 1945) M. 36”. 
A beautiful opal pink iris whose broad rounded petals and 
heavy leather-like substance quickly attract attention. A 
self, the flower is closest to an opal shade of pink. It is a 
descendant of that fine iris Angelus being larger and some- 
what earlier blooming with a better branched stem. There 
are very few iris in this class and we offer this variety as a 
fine addition. $5.00 
ELSA SASS (UH. Sass 1939) ML. 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. 
$1.00; 3 for $2.50 
ETHELWYN DUBUAR (Lapham 1932) ML. 34”. 
A large flowered orchid pink with soft lemon yellow beard. 
Attractive, broad, lightly fluted petals. 35c; 3 for 90c 
8 
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 
EXCLUSIVE (Grant 1937) L. 38”. 
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 (Douglas 1944) L. 36”. 
A new amoena of cream white standards and rich velvety 
prune-plum falls with a copper medley artfully touching up 
the haft and the edge of the fall. Clear cut, memorable and 
pleasant, it is missed by many because it is so late flowering. 
A striking novelty in a color class where we have too few 
additions. $20.00 
FAIR ELAINE (Mitchell 1938) M. 35”. 
One of the loveliest in the yellow color class, an entrancing 
bitone. Fresh and alluring, a pale primrose to cream-white 
standard and blazing rich gold falls accentuated by a deep 
beard. $1.00; 3 for $2.50 
FIRECRACKER (Hall 1943) M. 33”. 
Brilliant dark burgundy red marked plicata with a yellow 
trim. This showy iris with its vivid shading of red on yellow 
looks like a red amaryllis with white stripe from a distance. 
It is an iris that commands attention, snappy cece 
.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. 
$4.00 
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. $1.50; 3 for $4.00 
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 and 
a vivid shrimp-red beard. Novel for color alone. As a 
clump it is striking. Close up the flowers are dispropor- 
tionately small for the tall stems. A breeders iris. $2.00 
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. 34”. 
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. $10.00 
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; 3 for $2.00
