PINK CAMEO 
One of the Finest Flamingo Pinks 





Here are two of the most effective colors 
for your garden. Notice on page 34 and con- 
tinuing we have gathered like colored Iris 
for comparison and evaluation. Also on page 
33 some interesting color planting suggestions 
are given. 


PURPLE MOOR 
An Iris of Plush Like Richness 


MAGIC CARPET (Schreiner 1942) ML. 33”. 
Largest of all the colored plicatas marked in the Orloff stlye. The 
flower has an informal ruffling combining effectively with the 
unusual and attractive rose-red markings on the buff standards 
and the gold-cream falls. Its size is exceptional. One of the 
largest of all colored plicatas and brightly arresting. The illus- 
tration on page 14 is a good likeness. $3.00; 3 for $7.50 
MAIDEN BLUSH (Hall 1943) M. 35”. 
Rich pleasing shade of apricot with a soft blending of pink. A 
pleasing Iris with heavily substanced flowers. 
$1.00; 3 for $2.50 
MAJENICA (P. Cook 1941) M. 36”. 
An exciting salmon tinted pink blend, wide petaled flowers. A 
clear, bright, smoothly colored self with very stiff, lasting sub- 
stance. A refreshing color, bringing the salmon tones into a 
larger, broader petaled flower of substance; branched stems. See 
it in color on page 22. $1.00; 3 for $2.50 
MANYUSYA (J. Sass 1944) M. 32”. 
A derivative of Noweta and an exquisite orchid pink. You will 
like this pure colored, ruffly flower for its charm and gaiety. 
$1.00 
MANDALAY (Hall 1943) L. 33”. 
A smooth reddish rose self. Falls are held stiffly horizontal. 
Though the flowers are not large, this new and attractive color, 
individual from every other rose Iris, will be used by the en- 
thusiast who wishes to have something really different. 
$1.00; 3 for $2.50 
MARINE WAVE (Schreiner 1941) VE. 26”. 
Very early blooming medium deep blue with a solid uniformity 
of color even to the blue beard. 75c 
MARQUITA (Cayeux 1931) ML. 34”. 
An amoena type in cream and watermelon-rose. Its luminous 
cream standards, “silken, hushed and chaste,” are the last word 
in serene but warm exquisiteness. ‘The watermelon-rose falls are 
veined candy striped rather than solidly colored. A very lovely 
Iris. A0c 
MARY E. NICHOLLS (Nicholls 1939) M. 34”. 
Beautiful, magnolia-like finished Iris of frosty cream-white tex- 
ture, like a kid glove, with a generous smooth overlay of dull 
gold at the haft. A gleaming white encrusted gold, refined and 
chaste. 75c; 3 for $2.00 
MARY VERNON (McKee 1942) M. 36”. 
Blended variegata of golden bronze flushed standards with widely 
flaring falls of bright ruby-red. $2.50; 3 for $6.00 
MASTER CHARLES (Williamson 1943) M. 38”. 
A smooth and refined glowing mulberry-purple. A charming 
feature is the flare of the flower which with its pronounced sheen 
gives life to the garden. A mellow note of brown blending near 
the heart of the flower accentuated by the bluish undercast makes 
it one of the most brilliant and distinctive Iris, rich and finished. 
$3.50; 3 for $8.25 
MATTERHORN (J. Sass 1938) EM. 38”. 
Sparkling pure white. Of faultless, beautifully rounded form, 
generous size without a trace of foreign color. The haft is utterly 
devoid of markings producing a chaste immaculate serenity, even 
to the white beard, such as is reserved only for true self colors. 
A sparkling sheen, firm substance, broad flaring falls and splen- 
did branching complete the qualifications of this fine white Iris. 
75c; 3 for $2.00 
MATTIE GATES (Sass 1946) ML. 36”. 
For beauty and symmetry of color this Iris can scarcely be ex- 
celled. So celestial it could go in a bridal bouquet. A limpid 
cool yellow with bright gold on the crisp white heart of the falls. 
The flowers seem wax-like with a pronounced sheen and finish. 
$20.00 
MATULA (H. Sass 1939) ML. 35”. 
One of the most unusual blends. A warm medley of rose, rich 
orange, apricot-red and buff. Large flowers are airily waved and 
crimped; superb substance and a rugged plant. 50c
