ELMOHR 
GREAT OEAKES 



BEARDED IRISES IN MODERN VARIETIES 
E. B. WILLIAMSON (Cook, 1937). M. 36”  506¢ 
Coppery-red, but neither copper nor red. Its large flowers 
have silky texture and are fragrant. Garden standby. AM 1939. 
ELMOHR (Loomis, 1942). M. 36” $2.00 
Faster growing in popularity and more interest exciting than 
any iris to date. ELMOHR is a giant sensational seedling of the 
iris William Mohr, winning the Dykes Medal in 1945—top 
honor. The color is rich bishop’s purple with a unique manner 
of venation. It’s a good garden iris with outstanding individ- 
uality in the bloom, and a fine increaser. 
ELSA SASS (H. Sass, 1939). ML. 36” $1.00 
A new shade of yellow, lemon-ice toned. This sulphur yellow 
in elongated blooms, edge frilled, of medium size, is exception- 
ally attractive and desirable. AM 1941. 
EXCLUSIVE (Grant, 1937). M. 38” 60c 
Silvery mist overlays a light blue of great purity, excluding 
similarity to other blues. Rich luxury in color value is displayed 
here. AM 1939. 
FAIR ELAINE (Mitchell, 1938). M. 38” $1.00 
This yellow bi-color, with standards of cream white perched 
over falls of rich golden yellow, cries out for a place in your 
garden. Slightly fragrant, too. Effective for massing. Innovate 
with Elaine! AM 1940. Illustrated on page 5. 
FIREBRAND (National, 1941). VL. 42” $2.00 
Golden red in a bi-color! Dark golden bronze, lightly washed 
red standards with undertoning absent in dark velvety red ruf- 
fled falls. Rich and abundant color recklessly dispensed. Fits 
the very tall and very late demand. 
FLORA CAMPBELL (Hill, 1940). ML. 34” $1.50 
Drama in red! Radiating warm tones of red-brown to peach- 
red lend character to beautiful style. Falls are velvety and flare 
strikingly. 
FLORA ZENOR (J. Sass, 1942). M. 40” $2.00 
Exotic and novel in color—at first glance misunderstood. Pale 
cameo-pink shading to deeper rose at the hafts, strikingly and 
brilliantly stabbed by a shrimp-red beard. Interestingly differ- 
entumnivVial ose 
FOREST AFLAME (National, ‘40). L. 36’ $3.00 
Flashing, leaping color! Bronze brown in standards suffused 
with red is softened by falls of velvety red-brown. Soft brown 
appears in style arms. 
FORTUNE (Kleinsorge, 1941) M. 32” $2.00 
Pirates’ treasure in color! Here is old gold in solid intensity 
—rusty red with an unobtrusive overlay—yet brilliant. Gigantic 
blooms take a broadly spreading form. 
FRANK ADAMS (Lapham, 1937). M. 40” 715¢ 
Rosy fawn tan standards are flushed yellow against rosy red 
falls in soft blending harmony. The flower is well proportioned 
on tall bloom stalks. 
FRECKLES (Becherer, 1941). M. 32” $1.00 
Distinctive in style and garden effect, these shorter stemmed 
beauties make fine foreground masses. It’s a plicata whose 
rich cream yellow background is uniquely marked with light 
chocolate. In this case freckles are becoming. 
GALLANT LEADER (Wiesner, ‘39). L. 40 $1.50 
Splendid, stately character is denoted in broad well arched 
standards of deep rose red. Velvety maroon falls are touched 
with coppery gold. Intensely pleasing. HM 1939. 
GARDEN GLORY (Whiting, 1943). M. 33’ $10.00 
Rich, true red—pure and deep. It is smoothly finished and 
begets attention and admiration in the garden. Absence of 
venation at the haft adds to apparent purity of color. 
GENERAL MacARTHUR $4.00 
(National, 1943). VL. 36” 
Commandingly tall, this enormous cream white is a late sea- 
son sentinel for the garden. It’s a self, with an inner glow en- 
closing a broad golden beard. Possessive admiration is yours 
from first glance of this stately flower. See front cover. 
GILT EDGE (Whiting, 1941). M. 38” $1.00 
Descriptively named, this distinctive and different creamy 
pale yellow is on tall and well branched stalks. The deep gold 
edging clearly outlines the falls.
