blend of raspberry red and golden tan, 
very distinctive, and delicately scented. 
Grows vigorously, increases’ rapidly. 
LOG 
EXCLUSIVE (Grant-Schreiner 1937) 
ML. Still one of the best light blues. 
Flowers are large, and powder or French 
blue in effect. 40c 
FAIR ELAINE (Mitchell 1938) M 38 
in. Long overlooked, this fine yellow 
bi-color is now coming into its own. 
The standards are of pale primrose, ap- 
proaching white, the falls golden yel- 
low with beard of bright orange. The 
form is good, stems well branched, and 
the plant grows vigorously and blooms 
freely. 75c 
FAIRY LUSTRE (Washington 1940) M 
86 in. Like Fair Elaine, here is anoth- 
er iris coming into prominence. The 
flowers, of clear light yellow, are car- 
ried on sturdy, well-balanced stems. 
For us this variety grows vigorously 
and starts blooming early and over a 
long season. 7OC 
FIESTA (C. G. White) ML 38 in. Stand- 
ards of sparkling copper and falls of 
copper tinted with rose purple; with a 
beard of brilliant orange make this a 
striking color note. $1.00 
FIRECRACKER (Hall 1943) M 32 in. 
A brilliant plicata, with undercolor of 
yellow marked with Burgundy red. 
Free flowering, good substance, and nice 
growing and blooming habits. HM 
1943. $5.00 
FLORA CAMPBELL (Hill 1940) ML 
34 in. Radiating warm tones of red- 
brown to peach red. Falls are velvety 
and flare strikingly. 65c 
FLORA ZENOR (J. Sass, 1942) M 40 in. 
An iris increasing in popularity. The 
growth and color in our garden last 
year was so good that even iris experts 
did not recognize this as Flora Zenor 
at first. The flowers, of medium size, 
are of light shell or cameo-pink shad- 
ing to deeper rose at the hafts, set off 
by a prominent tangerine beard. 75c 
FLORENTINE (Cayeux 1937) M. This 
French importation is a blue-toned 
plicata with white ground color. The 
standards and falls are evenly dotted 
and lined with lilac mauve. Blooms 
are of large size, good form, and gen- 
erously produced. Grows about 36 in. 
tall for us. $1.00 
FOREST AFLAME (Weed 1940) L 36 
in. Bronze brown standards suffused 
with red, with falls of velvety red- 
brown. $1.00 
FORT KNOX (Milliken 1941) M 40 in. A 
GARDENS 

most effective light yellow self, of good 
growth and fine branching. $1.00 
FORTUNE (Kleinsorge) M 32 in. Huge 
blooms of old gold overlaid with rusty 
red make this a novel, attractive, and 
muchly desired iris. $1.00 
FRANCONIA (Graves 1942) 38 in. A 
large flowered, classic white with domed 
standards and flared falls. HC 1941, 
HM-1942. Rating 89. $7.50 
FRANK ADAMS (Lapham 1937) M 40 
in. A rosy bi-color that stands out be- 
cause of large sized flowers borne on 
tall, well branched stalks. The stand- 
ards are fawn, blended pink, the falls 
are of acrushed strawberry color. Give 
plenty of room, as rhizomes are large 
and increase is heavy. 50c 
FRIEDA MOHR. An old-time large or- 
chid pink, tall and stately, delightfully 
fragrant, and fine for mass planting 
at border back. 35c 
FROSTIA (Hall 1947). Another Top- 
notch introduction, and a white we un- 
hesitatingly recommend. The flowers 
are large and full, a pure, clean white 
with a bright yellow beard. Stem and 
branching are excellent, growth good. 
About 36 in. tall and blooming season 
fairly late. $4.00 
FROSTY MOON (Maxwell 1944) 38 in. 
A white, lightly tinted lavender iris, 
with golden beard and haft. The stand- 
ards are ruffled, with crimped ruffled 
edges on falls. The large flowers are 
of good substance and well spaced, and 
an established plant carries many bloom 
stalks. $3.50 
FULL MEASURE (DeForest). A tall, 
large deep yellow iris as yet not well 
known in the Midwest. $1.00 
GARDEN FLAME (Sass) ML 35 in. 
One of the newer reds. Best described 
as garnet, this iris has nicely closed 
ruffled standards, and handsome flar- 
ing falls, unspoiled by venations. HM 
1940 AM 1943. Rating 89. $2.00 
GARDEN GLORY (Whiting 1943). This 
rich, perfectly formed iris easily chal. 
lenges all others to the claim of “best 
red.” Smoothly finished, without haft 
venation, and with a growth and bloom 
dependability often found lacking among 
newer reds, Garden Glory has made a 
name for itself not only in America but 
in England. $5.00 
GARDEN MAGIC (Grinter 1936). An 
older and a smooth, dark velvety red, 
almost maroon. Blooms are large and 
well formed. Slow to establish but 
magnificent as a clump. Not so tall as 
the Red Douglas, but color similar. $1.00 
GAY SENORITA (Salbach 1944). A
