GRACE MOHR (Jory 1935) M. 35”. 
Seedling of William Mohr. Pale lilac veined and netted 
a deeper shade of lilac (manganese), flaring falls — tall, 
branched stems. $1.00; 3 for $2.50 
GRAND CANYON (Kleinsorge 1941) M. 38”. 
A subtle deep colored blend of plum, copper and gold 
with center brightened by a gold beard and throat. An iris 
that is best when admired at close range. Shows wonderful 
play of colors planted in the half shade and an admirable 
iris to bring indoors. Its coloring is very reminiscent of the 
famous scenic area it was named after. 
$2.00; 3 for $5.00 
GREAT LAKES (Cousins 1938) M. 40”. 
Winner of the Dykes Medal in 1942, this is about the 
finest light pure blue. Of splendid mien with a pronounced 
flare, stiff, crispy petal texture, it is strikingly fine. Fine 
stems of good height, well branched. Rugged and hardy, 
we highly recommend it. Present day preeminence and 
popularity surpass practically every other iris! 
$1.50; 3 for $4.00 
GUDRUN (K. Dykes 1931) EM. 32”. 
One of the finest whites for foreground planting. A very 
large variety with shapely blooms of splendid texture. A 
warm white despite its snowy coloring due in part to the 
warm golden beard and haft markings and in part to gold 
dust sprinklings throughout the flower. 35c; 3 for 90c 
GULF STREAM (Fay 1946) EM. 38”. 
This iris as it flowered for us last season was one of the 
most individual dark blue iris. Rich in color, refined in 
form, an absolute self without a haft marking. The blue 
beard continues the pleasant harmony in the large, well 
formed flower. It is deeper than practically any other blue 
iris yet it is not a purple. Its name is highly descriptive. 
The branching is moderate, the poise, rich color and distinct 
shading are excellent. $15.00 
GYPSY (Kleinsorge 1944) L. 38”. 
A warm orangy cast variegata with copper gold standards 
and solid chestnut brown falls. Imposing stems, a vibrantly 
colored iris. One of the most promising variegatas we have 
seen in several years, it brings to this class a warmth of 
coloring many of the other varieties lack. $5.00 
GYPSY BARON (Schreiner 1942) EM. 40”. 
A striking and different development in the plicata fam- 
ily. Unusual because of its unique marbling and striation 
of mulberry purple on a crisp, silvery white background. 
It is like a feathery tracery of frost on a window pane. 
Splendid substance. $4.00 
GYPSY ROSE (Whiting 1946) ML. 38”. 
Tall and stately, 4 warm hellebore red with a smooth 
brushing of copper at the haft and a hint of blue at the tip 
of the heavy yellow beard. It is tall and beautifully branched 
with strong stems that take all weather. Well substanced, 
rounded flowers. $20.00 
HARRIET THOREAU (Cook 1944) M. 38”. 
A recent orchid pink self with great style and individ- 
uality. The flowers are large and substantially built, slightly 
waved. A fine creation, well colored and one of the very 
finest iris of its color. A vast improvement over old orchid 
pink iris. Floriferous and makes a lovely clump. $7.50 
HARVEST MOON (Whiting 1944) M. 34”. 
A luscious apricot blend. Large flower, full rounded pet- 
als. A nice color with rather garish haft pattern. A good 
massing iris. ‘ $4.00 

HOOSIER SUNRISE (Lapham 1942) M. 40”. 
Magnificent growing, large, lovely pink blend with broadly 
rounded standards and falls. A very pretty iris colored like 
the rosy fingered sunrise. Good substance and a splendid 
garden iris. $4.00 
ICY BLUE (Weed 1941) EM. 44”. 
Crisp light blue with a frosty lustre. The lightest blue 
self we have. In very hot weather the color fades. The 
blooms are well substanced and flare prettily. $1.00 
IDANHA (Kleinsorge 1942) EM. 36”. 
There are few iris that are so individually distinct from 
other varieties that they cannot be compared. /danha is an 
iris practically alone in a new color pattern. In effect the 
standards are apricot-buff with pleasing pink falls. As 
pleasing as it is individual. $2.50 
ILLINOIS SUNSHINE (Faught 1946) M. 38”. 
Color a rich golden yellow with a bright orange beard. 
The falls have a creamy white brushing. Both tall and large 
with good weather resistant qualities to the slightly elon- 
gated flowers. A good grower and bloomer. $15.00 
IMPERIAL BLUSH (UH. Sass 1932) EM. 38”. 
Silvery lilac with a creamy-pink iridescence. Tall, free 
flowering blush pink, the lemon beard adds an interesting 
touch. 30c; 3 for 75c 
INDIANA NIGHT (P. Cook 1942) ML. 38”. 
A seedling of Sable only a shade of deep blue rather than 
claret. Large and tall, a fine deep colored variety. Unfor- 
tunately it has been a slow grower for us. $8.00 
INDIAN HILLS (Grant 1937) M. 37”. 
A rich true-purple, large sized, a self. Good substance 
and fine oval form. A thrifty grower and good propagator. 
Unexcelled for massing, it makes a gorgeous rich clump of 
color with unusual carrying power. 40c; 3 for $1.00 
INSPIRATION (Stevens 1937) M. 38”. 
The focus of attention is always drawn to this sensational, 
vividly colored iris. One of the very richest of all the rose 
toned iris, the giant blooms possess an unrivalled lustre. 
The broadly formed flowers are precisely formed as if 
carved. In tone it is a large, glistening light carmine or 
rose madder. A self of good size and nice branching stem. 
One of the most startling “breaks” in iris coloring. Without 
a doubt it is one of the most original iris we grow. As gor- 
geous a color as can be imagined. $3.00 
JANICE (Schreiner 1943) VL. 38”. 
This -attractive blue iris resembles Missouri somewhat 
only in place of the brown throat Janice is a completely 
uniform blue. Broad full flowers blooming toward the end 
of the season. Constantly selected by our visitors in prefer- 
ence to many newer kinds. $1.25 
JASMANIA (Ayres 1936) M. 38”. 
Full petalled, copiously formed yellow. The color is a 
rich tone of banana yellow. Tall and pleasant carriage, an 
excellent iris. 35c; 3 for 90c 
JASMINE (Grant 1944) ML. 38”. 
__A gorgeous smooth golden yellow, gardenia like texture. 
(he color is poured on so smoothly not a vein or variation 
of shading of coloring is noted. The beard is almost the 
same color. The flower has a glitter and shine. Stems are 
inclined to be a bit weak in our experience. $18.50
