LIGHT BLUES Contined from previous page 
Great Lakes, the reliable and beautiful, is a leader. Newer Bandmaster, a powder blue of very large size, looks promising. The 
quality and appealing color of Anitra along with the more frosty lavender G/oriole deserves high praise. Sparkling Blue is a free growing, 
well groomed flower. Exclusive, a soft French blue is novel. In the wistaria (lavender tinted) blues Azure Skies and tall Tishomingo have 
a cool, peaceful air about them. Though tender Shining Waters is a most beautiful blue, cool and peaceful.

An engaging shade of blue. Here we have famous Chivalry. Well formed, finished and effectively colored The Admiral along with 
that superb garden iris Blue Zenith, are two of the garden indispensibles. Méssouri of lovely form and regal, square shouldered West 
Point along with tall Sierra Blue are excellent examples of fine garden iris. Janice for late flowering and Gallantry for a jaunty, flaring 
type are something different. The four trial varieties have exceptional promise.

The dark blues, indigos and blacks are characterized by their rich, velvety petals. New Black Forest is the nearest black we have 
in iris. Sable, a claret black, is a fine dark iris. Two smooth, splendid dark blues are sleek Bonsor and free flowering Nightfall. Interest- 
ing studies in two tones of coloring are Amigo, Louise Blake and the imposing Lothario. Numbering among the most satisfactory garden
