EO Se eS 
ICY BLUE (Weed, 1941) E At rhage IBN 
high ranking light blue, clear in color, 
with blooms of large size, well spaced 
on tall stems. i feye: 
ILLINOIS SUNSHINE (Faught 1946). 
An extremely large, heavily substanced 
yellow. The rather long flowers shade 
from light yellow at the center of the 
falls to extremely deep yellow at the 
edges of the petals, and flaunt a deep 
orange beard. The branching is good, 
and Ralph Schroeder of Illinois adds 
that this iris “enjoys poor soil.’ $10.00 
INDIANA NIGHT (P. Cook 1942). M 
28 in. A seedling of Sable, this is a 
deep velvety purple iris of good size, 
substance and texture. Stalks are tall 
and well branched. HM and AM Rat- 
ing 90. $6.00 
INDIAN HILLS (Grant-Schreiner 1937) 
M 37 in. Another “old” iris we wouldn’t 
be without. ‘The color is a rich true 
purple. _ 35¢ 
INNOVATION (Hall 1945). M 36 in. A 
rose trimmed plicata that looks like a 
solid rose-colored iris at a distance. 
The flowers are large, of good form and 
substance; the stems are strong and 
well branchd. A vigorous grower, free 
blooming and as a clump, brightly at- 
tractive. $4.00 
INVICTUS (Hall 1941). M 38 in. A 
deep yellow with subdued orange tone. 
Flowers large. heavy substanced, and 
of fine form. 90c 
iodo (66 SEES HGERD) avidin sh itak, ek 
truly fine white, this seedling of Tif 
fany and Maid of Astolat. The flowers 
are medium large, crispy waved, and 
glow like silk in the sun. A rugged 
grower and free bloomer, this quality 
white sells on sight. $1.00 
JASMANIA (Ayres 1936). M 36 in. 
Another unsurpassed old-timer, this 
deep or banana yellow, harmoniously 
touched with brown in the falls. 35C 
JEAN CAYEUX (Cayeux 1931) L 34 
in. A pleasing iris of Havana brown, 
this French Dykes winner. Joc 
JUNALUSKA (Kirkland 1934.) EM 36 
in. This coppery red iris still ranks as 
one of the finest blends. 35c 
KALINGA (Kleinsorge) An_ older 
cream of g00d_ size, whose broad 
Spreading ivory textured blooms come 
out several at a time, making a grand 
garden show Profuse bloomer and 
rapid grower. 35c 
KATHERINE FAY (Fay 1945). This 
is rated as one of the best whites of 
the present day. The large blooms of 
pure white have closed ruffled stand- 
ards, with a slight ruffling on the semi- 
flaring falls. The stems are strong and 
well branched. The plant itself has 
large rhizomes, that develop rapidly 
into a clump and the blooming habit is 
generous. While we prefer the flowers 
of Frostia or Snow Carnival, we must 
admit the growing habits of Katherine 
Fay are superior. $5.00 
KATHERINE LARMON (Graves 1942) 
M 38 in. A rich blend of yellow, copper 
and brown, with ruffled standards and 
arched flaring falls and a prominent 
orange beard. $2.59 
KLONDIKE GOLD (Kirkland 1941) M 
34 in. A deep pure yellow of exeel- 
lent substance, smooth finish, and nice 
growing habits. $1.50 
L. MERTON GAGE (Lapham 1942). M 
40 in. A pleasing blend of raspberry 
pink and yellow, blooming over a tong 
season. $2.00 
LADY BOSCAWEN (Graves 1946). M 
42 in. This new frilled and ruffled 
pure white, with broad fiuted standards 
and flaring falls slightly ruffled, looks 
like a good one. The flowers have 
much substance, and are well spaced on 
tall, graceful stalks. Although winter 
hardy, the growth is not as vigorous 
nor the increase as generous as we like 
—somewhat like Premier Peach in this 
respect. $12.50 
LADY MOHR (Salbach 1944). E 36 
in. This widely discussed Pogocyclus 
hybrid of Wm. Mohr ancestry lays claim 
to a novel coloring—a two-color com- 
bination with standards of oyster white 
and falls of veined chartreuse. As 
one gardener commented: “This is ei- 
ther a must have, or not at all. You 
can’t be indifferent to it.” We don’t 
think it is a beauty but a novelty—a 
collector’s, or hybridizer’s flower. $5.00 
LADY NAOMI (Fay 1941) M 46 in. 
A rather well liked plicata. The pale 
lavender standards are pleasingly com- 
bined with white falls. heavily Inel 
and dotted lavender. The large flow- 
ers are boldly carried on tall stalks. 
Lady Naomi blooms freely and incre2s°s 
rapidly for us. $1.00 
LAKE GEORGE (Smith 1945) ML 39 
in. A blue violet self, with broad, round- 
ly domed slightly ruffled standards and 
firm flaring falls without venation at 
the haft This new blue appears to 
be a fine one in every respect. inclu4d- 
ing growing and blooming habits. HC 
and HM, rating 89. $7.50 
LAKE SHANNON (De Forest 1945). An- 
other new blue, not very well known as 
yet. The flowers are attractive with wide 
fluted standards ana we!l shaped and 
proportioned falls. The blue beard is
