FAIR ELAINE (Mitchell 1938) M. 35”. 
One of the liveliest in the yellow color class totally distinct 
from the others. An entrancing bi-tone. Fresh and alluring, 
a pale primrose to cream-white standard and blazing rich gold 
falls accentuated by a deep beard. Very attractive. HM’39. 
AM’40. 50c; 3 for $1.25 
FANTASY (Hall 1947) EM. 34”. * 
Possessing that touch of distinction, this Iris is one of our 
favorites. Different from any other sort of rose and orchid- 
pink combination, the shadings have a touch of purplish rasp- 
berry about them. ‘The broad, full blooms have a bit of a 
ruffle, the heart of the flower is brilliantly lit up by an effec- 
tive tangerine beard and the contrast between the large purple 
buds and new rose-lilac flowers is most individual. HM’47. 
AM’49. $15.00 
FIRECRACKER (Hall 1943) M. 33”. * 
Brilliant dark burgundy-red marked plicata with a yellow 
trim. This showy Ivis with its vivid shading of red on yellow 
looks like a red Amaryllis with white stripe from a distance. 
It is an Ivis that commands attention, snappy and brisk. The 
most brilliant plicata we grow and one we like very much. 
Pictured on page 14. HM’43. $3.00 
FIREDANCE (Fay 1947) ML. 36”. 
A deep, glowing red marked plicata, the striking pattern of 
marking gives a strident note. The falls are marked in a nar- 
row perimeter while the standards are more generally marked 
a shade of wine-red. Not large yet most effective. HM’47. 
$7.50 
FLORA ZENOR (J. Sass 1941) EM. 40”. 
A fascinating and singular Iris. Melting pink color, like foam 
on a strawberry soda with deeper lines of rose at the haft and 
a vivid shrimp-red beard. Novel for color alone. As a clump 
it is striking. Close up the flowers are disproportionately 
small for the tall stems. HM’42. AM’44. 75¢; 3 for $2.00 
FLORENTINE (Cayeux 1937) M. 37”. 
Individually different—a plicata entirely dotted, speckled and 
freckled in an overall effect so the flower seems engulfed in a 
flaky blue dust. Large sized flowers; good plant habits. AM’40. 
50c; 3 for $1.25 
FRANCELIA (McKee 1944) M. 34”. # 
Deservedly this bright chrome-yellow is one of the forefront 
yellows. Not recognized to the degree it deserves, it nonethe- 
less is establishing itself in its rightful position with a flower 
of faultless form, doined standards and semi-flaring falls, good 
substance and rich gold color as if the sun itself were con- 
gealed within. HM“44. $3.00 
FRANK ADAMS (Lapham 1937) M. 48”. 
This flamboyant Iris carries its bloom on about as ideally 
proportioned branches as could be desired. A rosy fawn-tan 
blended with pink and falls rose with a tantalizing tan un- 
dercoat giving unusual warmth and vibrancy to its colors. 
HM’38. AM’40. 50c; 3 for $1.25 
FRANK PUGLIESE (Lapham 1947) M. 38”. 
A redder, more vibrant Christabel, possibly a shade or two 
darker and even more of a self. ‘The standards are so rich 
they are practically the same shade as the lustrous, fiery falls. 
When viewed with the sun shining through it does seem as 
if it were a “house-afire-red”; fragrant. $5.00 
FRIEDA MOHR (Mohr 1926) ML. 38”. 
One of the aristocrats of the Iris world. A large lilac-rose 
bicolor of classic flaring form and splendid texture. This is 
one of the oldest Iris we grow, but we would never consider 
an Iris garden complete without Frieda Mohr, one of the all- 
time greats. Sweet fragrance. Pictured page 17. 
35c; 3 for 90c 
GALLANTRY (Whiting 1945) M. 38”. 
A uniform rich blue copiously composed with pleasant fluting 
of its petals. A full, rounded medium blue; fragrant. $4.00 
Page 16 
GARDEN FLAME (H. Sass 1941) ML. 34”. 
A rich rose with deeper tints of rose and brown in the center 
or perhaps more truly descriptive, a rosy garnet. A striking 
Iris with large, rounded flowers enriched by brown tints over- 
laid on the rosy garnet-red. We like it. HM’40. AM’43. 
$1.00; 3 for $2.50 
GARDEN GLORY (Whiting 1943) ML. 33”. * 
A pure enameled, rich Bordeaux red, or velvety ruby, one of 
the most stylish of the reds. Clear color, classic form and 
smooth finish. Distinctive because of its rich, glowing red, 
smooth haft and dark bronzy beard and its enamel finish and 
flaring form. Not Jarge or tall it is one of our favorites be- 
cause it has such a sleek, smooth finish. HM’45. AM’47. 
$4.00 
GARDEN MAGIC (Grinter 1936) ML. 38”. 
One of the top flight reds. Flowers of smooth, velvety toned 
red on tall stems. Rich color, good substance, good form. 
The flowers are full formed with hafts solidly colored red and 
more glossy velvety falls handsomely contrasted by the rich 
beard. Not a fast grower, it takes about 2 years to give its 
best performance. HM’37. 75c; 3 for $2.00 
GENERAL PATTON (Kleinsorge 1947) ML. 38”. 
An intense and brilliant copper-brown self that glows and 
glistens with great elegance. The darker brown shading of 
this blend with its sparkling iridescence is quite novel. HM’47. 
$10.00 
GLAD TIDINGS (Whiting 1947) ML. 34”. 
If you are interested in an Iris that is a little different this 
Iris will delight you. A taffy-colored, wax-yellow with a flat 
fall. The spike is branched closely giving a Gladiola-like 
effect. $3.00 
GLORIOLE (Gage 1933) M. 38”. * 
Brittle, cool, sheer—a giant ice-blue of unmatched substance 
overlaid with a sparkle like frost crystals. Supremely beau- 
tiful, splendid branching, wavy petals. HM’33. AM’35. 
50c; 3 for $1.25 
GOLDBEATER (Kleinsorge 1944) M. 36”. * 
Solidly colored chrome-yellow without markings or blendings 
of any kind. Very large flowers on excellent branched stems. 
A novel effect is given to a clump of this Iris by the bright 
coloring the deep yellow buds themselves make. Very fra- 
grant. Highly praised by Iris judges. HM’45. 
$2.00; 3 for $5.00 
GOLDEN EAGLE (Hall 1942) EM. 38”. 
Sparkling light, clear yellow with a satiny sheen. Unlike most 
yellows it is without a hint of orange or amber. Extremely 
laree, 6-inch flowers and a rapid grower. Perhaps the largest 
yellow. HM’42. $1.00; 3 for $2.50 
COLDEN FLEECE (J. Sass 1940) ML. 36”. 
A beautiful lemon-yellow with the creamy falls provocatively 
edged and banded limpid gold, wholly unlike other yellow 
Tris. ™t has a suggestion of ruffling and tall stems. HM’40. 
AM’42. Pictured on page 34. $1.00; 3 for $2.50 
GOLDEN HIND (Chadburn 1934) E. 30”. 
One of the most colorful rich yellows, being bright, clear 
buttercup yellow. Not large, it has a richness and depth of 
colo~ possessed by few. Floriferous and a rapid increaser; 
stunning color. AM 27. DM’39. 35c; 3 for 90c 
GOLDEN LUSTRE (Fass 1948) E. 32”. 
This early blooming pure golden yellow has the clearest 
golden yellow tones we have seen in the early blooming Ivis. 
Its season of bloom is altogether invaluable. A color gem 
with nicely proportioned blooms and stems. 
$2.00; 3 for $5.00 
GOLDEN MASESTY (Salbach 1938) ML. 36”. 
One of the very fine golden yellows, it is glistening smooth 
and does not fade. Of gleaming gold, the good sized blooms 
with splendid dome form are majestic and classic looking. 
One of the very finest Iris of its color in its price class. 
HM’39. AM’40. 50c; 3 for $1.25
