CHOIR BOY (Schreiner 1947) L. 34”. 
A very late blooming amoena with a noteworthy wave 
and light ruffle to the petals. Medium sized flowers, 
milk white standards and falls a shade of deep blue 
rather than purple. A very interesting amoena. $2.50 
CHRISTABEL (Lapham 1936) M. 38”. 
Melodramatic—a splendid glowing true red. One of the 
great reds not only for individual exhibition bloom but 
for the garden as well. Its size, vigor and floriferous 
habit make a clump a perfect mass of glowing copper- 
red. It is one of the most effective Iris in the garden. 
50c; 3 for $1.25 
CITY OF LINCOLN (H. Sass 1937) ML. 42”. 
King of the variegatas. The variegata by which all 
others are judged. Possesses rich golden standards and 
velvety, fiery red falls. This is the boldest color con- 
trast to be found in Ivis and makes a clump of this 
variety a very striking focal point in any Iris picture. 
Flashy color contrast. Illustrated on page 37. 
50c; 3 for $1.25 
CLOTH OF GOLD (Whiting 1945) M. 38” 
A sensation—the brilliant color and volume of bloom 
stamp this as something different and not just another 
yellow. Clear, even, bright deep golden yellow. Nice 
flaring form, heavy substance, widely branched stem. 
The perfect trim form is accentuated by the glowing 
orange beard. $3.00 
COPPER GLOW (Douglas 1945) ML. 37”. 
Bright copper brown fairly deep in color yet brilliant and gleam- 
ing like autumn foliage. The copper brown flowers and dark 
green foliage make a very pretty garden picture. $5.00 
COPPER LUSTRE (Kirkland 1934) M. 36”. 
Instantly distinguishable from other Iris is this large, odd and 
beautiful copper toned Iris, the whole overlain with a golden 
iridescence. A much-liked Iris because of its unusual color. 
50c; 3 for $1.25 
COPPER PINK (Kellogg 1941) M. 36”. 
Beautiful soft pink flushed sparkling copper with haft dusted 
gold. A blue shading on the midrib with an orange-brown beard 
completes this harmonious combination. $1.00 
COPPER RIVER (DeForest 1945) M. 36”. 
This glistening tan with an overlay of bright new-penny copper 
surely has the accent on color. The bright shade seems to reflect 
a tone of henna. Flaring form. $6.00 
COPPER ROSE (P. Cook 1941) M. 38”. 
Shimmering rose-copper, tinsel-like with its golden terra cotta 
glitter from an afterglow like blending of rose, tan and copper. 
Clean gold haft. Throughout the flower there is the absence of 
any venation which gives the flower a smooth, silky finish. A 
flower that stands out in any company. $1.50; 3 for $4.00 
CORAL MIST (Grant 1941) M. 36”. 
Pink and deeper coral with a cinnamon flush on the falls. Large 
flowers, flaring form with very nice, tall, widely branched stems. 
$1.50 
CORDOVAN (Kleinsorge 1946) M. 34”. 
A very rich brown-red with a glossy finish like a piece of fine 
textured cordovan leather. A seedling of the famous Bryce Canyon, 
it has the unusualness of coloring of this famous Iris. A nice rich 
blend. $4.00 
CRIMSON TIDE (Nicholls 1939) ML. 40”. 
Large, deep red with velvety flaring falls. A heavy orange beard 
provides a bold contrast. 75c 
DANUBE WAVE (Schreiner 1947) M. 38”. 
A lovely harmony of color and style. This rich mid-blue arises 
from the cross of Anitra and Narain and combines the splendid 
breeding of these two distinct families of blues most effectively. 
A self, a rich shade of remarkable marine-blue. Its outstanding 
quality is its depth of color. Very thrifty with exceptionally well- 
substanced and poised blooms. It is an Iris the fancier seeking 
a color note will prize. A good illustration of this fine Ivis on -

DAYBREAK (Kleinsorge 1941) M. 36”. 
A gay, percolating golden pink with a coppery under- 
tone. One of the finer pink blends. Good form and 
substance and a good stalk. A slight suggestion of 
ruffling gives it a delightful informal air. Colored as 
the first blush of morn. $2.00; 3 for $5.00 
DEEP VELVET (Salbach 1939) ML. 36”. 
An Iris of precise styling. Perfectly formed blooms 
with marvelous silken sheen, not velvety, but a very 
deep, clear purple-violet. The combination of deep 
silky glisten with haft shading to claret-brown and 
dusky gold beard give it color from the depths. 
Pleasantly scented. $1.00 
DESERT SONG (Fay 1946) EM. 40”. 
A nicely proportioned, artfully ruffled cream Iris with 
a butterscotch tinge. This delectable cream shaded 
primrose combines good form, smooth color and qual- 
ity. Carried on branched stems with an easy grace it is 
one of the finest creams. The individual florets and 
specimen stems are both superb. See page 6 for a good 
color reproduction of this fine cream that withstands 
wind and rain. $10.00
