light glow. $5.00 
LANCASTER (Cook 1940). M 36 in. 
Growing by our walk last year, in well 
fertilized ground, many inquired as to 
what this iris was. The copper rose 
blend looks somewhat more deep pink

of good size, with the falls unusually 
broad. Grows somewhat taller in good 
garden soil. $1.00

Introduced more than 20 years acon,

LOUVOIS. A brown bi-color, unusual

ily overlaid, veined and dotted rosy 
heliotrope. Prolific grower and free 
bloomer. 40c 
MAGENTA (Cayeux 1927) L 30 in. This

well-formed flowers come late, prolong- 
ing the iris season. 35c¢

Termed a new color, the large, well 
proportioned flowers are of cinnamon 
buff. Nice grower here. $2 00 
MARINELLA (Cayeux 1947). We pre- 
fer this iris to Louvois, for while the 
color is somewhat different, being a rich 
brownish red and golden bronze, the 
growing habits are decidedly better. 60c 
MARQUITA (Cayeux 1931). 36 in. A 
French import with large, creamy yel- 
low standards and falls of deep cream

orange, crimson and buff, with arched 
standards and slightly ruffled falls. Fine
