ORMOHR (Kleinsorge 1937) M. 36”. 
A flower larger than William Mohr carried on tall 
branching stems. It is a uniform silver-lavender with 
infiltrated veins and dots of violet similar to its famous 
parent. One of the largest Ivis. 50c; 3 for $1.25 
OVERTURE (D. Hall 1944) M. 34”. 
Another flamingo-pink, a little larger flower than 
Dream Girl, but of a different shade. An advance into 
the field of true pink pleasingly pure with a prominent 
tangerine-orange beard as a high note to the color 
composition. A valuable parent. $5.00 
OZONE (J7 Sass/1935) ML: 37”. 
As distinct and original an Ivis as can be imagined, one 
of our favorites. A pearly mauve to rosy lavender, a 
pure self with unusual, pronounced area of warm 
coppery brown throughout the center and on the haft. 
50c; 3 for $1.25 
PALE DAWN (Fay 1947) EM. 38”. 
A very pale blue Ivis, near white in tone. Large, nicely 
formed blooms with a well tailored look borne on 
strong, perfectly branched 40-inch stems. Holds its 
color very well for such a delicate shade. $7.50 
PALE PRIMROSE (Whiting 1946) L. 38”. 
An attractive cream-primrose-yellow with a touch of 
wax-yellow at the haft. Wide standards seem to give 
the flower a swirl-like effect. Substance is extra fine 
and its bloom is very late. Stem is inclined to bunch 
but in spite of this it is very worth while. 
$1.50; 3 for $4.00 
PATHFINDER (Whiting 1948) M. 35”. 
This is the exceptionally broad petaled pink with a 
hint of blending from the garden of this illustrious 
hybridizer in Iowa. The blossoms are both wide and 
very full. Extremely heavy substance and glistening 
texture. It is remarkable. $20.00 
PATRICE (DeForest 1945) M. 38”. 
A stately plicata of beautiful form distinguished by the 
subtle brushing of pale gold at the haft and lovely 
speckling of peach and rosy lavender on the creamy background. 
Refined and one of the distinct plicatas. Excellent substance, 
$3.00; 3 for $7.50 
branching and texture. 
PEACHBLOW (H. Sass 1943) M. 34”. 
A warm, fluffy pinkish plicata with a generous outpouring of 
mellow peaches-and-cream coloring throughout the entire flower. 
The color has instant appeal. It carries most effectively in the 
$1.50 
garden. 
PENSIVE (Grant 1947) M. 38”. 
One of the last Iris from the hands of our late friend Dr. Grant. 
It is interesting to note that Dr. Grant named several of his crea- 
tions after winners of the Kentucky Derby in the Blue Grass 
State. Pensive is one of these and one of the finest dark Iris. A 
sleek, glossy rich purple with a blackish luster. It has depth of 
$7.50 
color, form, size and stem height. Very fine. 
PERMANENT WAVE (Williams 1948) ML. 40”. 
Imagine this flower—crisp cut, horizontal flaring falls, full and 
rounded, petals with a jaunty whirl to the very edges. ‘The entire 
bloom is colored sweet lavender shading to blue with golden 
brown hafts with a metallic luster. Picture such an Iris and you 
have a good idea of this most novel formed flower. The entire 
$12.00 
flower is most original and without counterpart. 
PESHAWAR (Schreiner 1937) VE. 26”. 
Rich brown-purple veined and dotted a deeper shade. 
charm of this flower is its dusting of silver-gray like a morning

dew. An ideal Iris to force for early bloom. 
The 
PINK CAMEO (Fay 1946) EM. 36”. 
An exquisite fresh pure pink; one of the latest creations 
of the famous flamingo-pink line. Outstanding qual- 
ities are the pinkness, smoothness, purity of tone and 
melting softness of color. The unusual freshness of 
tone in Pink Cameo is due to the almost entire absence 
of other coloring in its makeup, producing tones of 
ethereal freshness. The pointed buds, much deeper in 
color, are a picture in themselves, opening to give an 
entirely new conception of what a pink Iris can be. 
The shading is a beautiful translucent cameo-pink with 
a striking tangerine-orange beard, the “trade mark” so 
typical of the new pink Iris. Excellent branching, 36- 
inch stems, good substance, fine sized flowers lightly 
flaring and early blooming. It is as fine an Iris as has 
been developed in this exciting new color class. One 
of the loveliest Iris we have offered. See page 18. 
$10.00 
PINK LACE (Sass 1947) M. 36”. 
This is one of Sass’ newest pinks, a descendent of 
Flora Zenor with the “new look” shade of pink and 
accompanying tangerine beard. It has the tendency to 
rebloom in fall as well with us. $7.50 
PINK REFLECTION (P. Cook 1942) ML. 36”. 
A nymph-like, exquisite chamois-pink with a delicate, 
enchanting quality. An underlay of creamy pink com- 
bined with the finest substance gives this flower a crisp 
quality. It has also been described as a hydrangea-pink. 
Crisp and clear cut like a piece of silk brocade. 
$3.00; 3 for $7.50 
PLATINUM BEAUTY (Schreiner 1941) ML. 36”. 
Entrancing, delicate pastel blend of lilac-pink with 
softest blendings of lemon-yellow especially concen- 
trated toward the heart of the flower. The golden 
sheen makes it appear as though sprinkled with star 
dust. 50c; 3 for $1.25 
PRAIRIE FIRE (Tompkins 1945) ML. 38”. 
A rich, coppery, flame colored yellow blend. A deriva- 
tive of Far West x Nylon, with tall stems finely 
branched. Bright and effective. $8.00
