OLD LACE (Mitchell 1945) M. A unique bicolor blend with 
ruffled standards of palest parchment and a suggestion of 
mauve through the center, Base color of the falls is the 
same as the standards with a broken wash of mauve. Good 
habit of growth. 36 in. $3.50 
OLYMPIAN (G. Douglas 1948) M. Imposing and quite dif- 
ferent, this handsome iris is most resplendent in the garden. 
It is a bi-tone with perfectly domed standards of buff lightly 
blended with rose. The flaring and very broad falls are rosy 
brown with a deeper velvety flush of rose in the center. The 
flowers are very large of heavy thick substance, and have 
great weather resistance. The exceptionally fine branching 
allows perfect placement of the 10 or more blooms on the 
strong tall stalk. 42 in. $11.00 
ORANGE GLOW (Cassebeer 1943) M. This most attractive 
iris has the brilliance of a ruddy sunset glow. The stand- 
ards are coppery gold, firm and strong. The semi-flaring 
falls are bright reddish terra cotta overlaid with a velvety 
sheen. Larger and more brilliant than Radiant. H. C.,

OVERTURE (D. Hall 1944) M. This iris is one of the first

PAGAN PRINCESS (G. Douglas 1948) M. Something new! 
The first deep pink with a brilliant tangerine beard. The 
conic, closely held standards of Persian pink (nearest color 
in Maerz and Paul) with firm texture. The flaring falls are 
deeper in tone (Persian rose. R.H.S.) with a narrow edging 
of the same color as the standards. The color extends well 
into the center of the flower; no venations mar the haft. The 
bright tangerine beard is in striking, but pleasing contrast 
to the rosy pinkness of the flower. We offer this iris to 
those interested in breeding the new tangerine bearded pink- 
buds, not as the ultimate in pink, but rather as a great ad- 
vancement in deeper coloring and also as an iris of new color 
effect in the garden. H, M., A. I. S. 1948. 38 in. $10.00 
PALE PRIMROSE (Whiting 1946) L. Cool primrose yellow 
with a flush of wax yellow at the haft. The heavy sub- 
stanced flowers have an oval shape with the broad standards 
closely swirled, and the wide falls nearly meet. Good 
branching. 388 in. $1.50 
PATH OF GOLD (E. L. Hodson 1948) E. A delightful yel- 
low dwarf iris that is well named for it literally makes a 
Path of Gold. The plants are very floriferous and hardy, 
a gem for bordering a path, in a rock garden or about a Peek

PENN CHARTER (H. F. Hall 1948) L. Yellow iris with 
flaring form are rare, but here is one, a brilliant yellow self 
of flaring form with glistening finish, and substance of vel- 
lum. The standards of aureolin yellow are broad, strong, 
and firmly domed. The almost horizonta] falls are slightly 
ruffled at the tips, of the same color as the standards. Beard 
and styles same tone. Clarity of color and great garden 
value characterize this clean cut iris. Exceptionally heavy 
substanced flowers with 8 to 10 blooms on widely branched 
strong stalks. Last season during an excessive downpour 
of rain, it remained untouched. 40 in. $15.60 
PENSIVE (Grant 1947) M. Few very dark iris have depth 
of color, excellent form and substance, but in Pensive we 
find all three. It is a self of velvety blackish purple, with 
uniformity of color throughout. A cross of Sable x Deep 
Velvet, it has better branching, substance, and nonfading 
qualities than either of its parents. One of the most pleas- 
ing dark iris of recent years, and has been praised by many 
iris lovers. Heavy substanced flowers, good branching, and 
vigorous growth. 38 in. $7.50 
PERSIAN PRINCE (H. P. Sass 1941) M. A very brilliant

heavily overlaid with green gold deepening decidedly toward 
the throat. Broad beard of javel green. H. M., A. I. S. 1941. 
Per. R. 87 1942. 40 in. $1.50 
PICOTEE (C. P. Connell 1942) E. M. The standards and 
falls are very pure white bordered with pencikings and dots 
of deep Cadet blue. Flowers very freely and gives the 
bluest effect of any plicata in the garden. Excellent for 
mass planting. R. 87 1942. 38 in. $1.00 
PINK CAMEO (Fay 1946) E. The name is most descriptive 
for the color reminds you of the lovely pale pink cameos that 
before the war were found in the quaint little shops on the 
Ponte Vecchio in Florence, Italy. Delightful in color, the 
orange tangerine beard is in pleasing contrast to the smoothly 
finished flowers. A self with lightly flaring blooms, evenly 
spaced on well branched stalks. H.C., A. I. S. 1945. H. M.,
