Moonlight Madonna (J. Sass 1943) This iris can be visualized as a greatly improved 
Elsa Sass, possessing the same fresh coloring with the added beauty of full 
rounded form, heavy substance and excellent branching habit. The flowers are 
ruffied and the crisp texture adds greatly to their beauty. $1.50 
Morning Melody (Becherer 1948) An alluring, soft orchid lavender of grace, purity 
and refinement. The blossom is elegantly styled with an accompanying white 
beard which blends in with the harmony of the flower. Good sized flowers, well- 
branched stalks. 38’. Midseason. $7.50 
Morocco Rose (Loomis 1937) Very large rose-pink self, with a soft yellow glow at 
the heart and a brownish cast about the haft. This is getting the nearest to a 
genuine pink in our recent offerings. Unlike most iris of its color, Morocco 
Rose is a really big flower. Color does not fade. A grand iris, 38”. 75¢ 
Mt. McKinley (Schreiner 1947) An early blooming, tall, derivative of Amigo and 
- Wabash. Color is most pleasing, standards soft and clear, opening with a hint 
of blue that quickly pales to cool white. The falls are rich, sinooth and glossy 
without margining or veining at the haft. The haft has a warm, chestnut-like 
flush (not veins). Better branching than either parent and slightly larger, 38”. 
$2.50 
Mulberry Rose (Schreiner 1941) A large flower of mulberry rose that blooms in 
midseason. It is quite distinct from other iris in commerce. The novel color 
makes it stand out prominently in a garden planting and makes an imposing 
picture with its well branched stems. The general color effect is bright rose- 
purple. Very hardy and vigorous, 40”. $1.00 
Nancy Hardison (G. Douglas 1945) A ‘peach pink with the softest blending of pale 
yellow concentrating in the beard and the heart of the flower. Standards arched 
and ruffled, firmly held together by the strong mid-rib. Flaring falls are broad 
at the haft and rounded at the tips. Firm substance and splendidly branched. 
H.C., A.I.S. 1943. Late midseason. 36”. $3.50 
New Horizon (Fay 1946) Definitely a new color in iris. Not a pink blend but a true 
peach self of beautiful form with a tangerine beard and pink buds. The standards, 
which are slightly deeper peach pink than the falls, are full, ruffled and tightly 
held. The haft is wide and free from markings. The falls are nearly three inches 
wide, tailored and flaring. Flowers above average in size, of exceptional sub- 
stance and carried on strong, well branched stalks. Late bloomer. Plant winter 
hardy, vigorous and an average increaser. 40”. $6.00 
New Snow (Fay 1946) Flowers large and ruffled with no venations. As pure white 
in color as newly fallen snow. Has a full, bright yellow beard that emphasizes 
the purity of the bloom. Tall grower. Highly recommended by the A.I.S. also 
Honorable Mention by the American Iris Society. 40”. $7.50 
Nightfall (D. Hall 1941) Falls are a very rich dark pansy purple with almost no 
veining in the haft. Standards are several shades lighter than the falls, making a 
very striking color combination. Substance and form excellent. Strong grower 
and free bloomer. 36”. $1.00 
Ola Kala (J. Sass 1943) This is a recent origination that has met with a most 
favorable reception. A very lovely, deep yellow; medium large ruffled flowers on 
well branched stems. 36”. $1.50 
Old Parchment (Kleinsorge 1939) We think this one most aptly named. A light 
creamy tan with golden buff overlay; a most unusual color break. Perfectly 
huge blooms with heavy substance and one of the longest lasting varieties in 
the garden. 38”. $1.00 
Ormohr (Kleinsorge 1937) Flowers similar in color to Wm. Mohr but larger with 
better branching. Color is gray-lavender with veins and dots of lavender 
throughout the flower. Rated 89. H.M. and A.M., A.I.S. Midseason. 40”. 50¢
