INSPIRATION (Stevens 1937) M. 38”. * 
This sensational, vividly colored Iris is always the focus of 
attention. One of the very richest of all the rose toned Iris, 
the giant blooms possess an unrivalled luster. The broadly 
formed flowers are precisely formed as if carved. In tone it is 
light carmine or rose-cerise. A self of good size and nice 
branching stem. One of the most startling breaks in Ivis 
coloring. Without a doubt it is one of the most original Iris 
we grow. As gorgeous a color as can be imagined and one 
of the best rose Iris on the market; fragrant. Illustrated 
page 2. $1.00; 3 for $2.50 
ITALIAN JOY (See introductions page 7.) 
JANICE (Schreiner 1943) VL. 38”. 
This attractive blue iris resembles Missouri somewhat, only 
in place of the brown throat Janice is a completely uniform 
blue. Broad, full flowers blooming toward the end of the 
season. Constantly selected by our visitors in preference to 
many newer kinds. 75c; 3 for $2.00 
JASMINE (Grant 1944) ML. 38”. 
A smooth golden yellow, Gardenia-like texture. The color is 
poured on so smoothly not a vein or variation of shading of 
coloring is noted. The beard is almost the same color. Stems 
are inclined to be a bit weak. HM’44. $3.50 
JASPER AGATE (Mrs. T. Williams 1943) M. 34”. 
A jewel-like red Iris. A medley of gold and copper-red with a 
beautiful lacquer-like finish. Though not large or tall its 
individuality and charm in color are readily apparent. HM’44. 
$2.00 
JEAN CAYEUX (Cayeux 1931) M. 34”. 
Full petaled flower with a slight suggestion of a frill, it has 
a pleasing grace and opulence of form. Its novel tones are 
distinct—light havana-brown with a luster of golden biscuit 
tan. DM’31. 35c; 3 for 90c 
JULIET (Kleinsorge 1946) M. 36”. 
A fiery blend from Prairie Sunset. A flame-copper with sal- 
mon shadings, the center portions of the flower are a brilliant 
burnt-orange. Crisply cut blooms; flaring falls. A colorful 
Iris. HM’47. $3.00 
JUNALUSKA (Kirkland 1934) EM. 36”. 
Essentially a red Iris but unlike other reds uniquely blended 
by an infusion of red and copper-gold about the throat. 
A splendid regal sort that wins a great deal of admiration; 
an early bloomer. HM’36. AM’37. A0c; 3 for $1.00 
KATHARINE FAY (Fay 1945) M. 36”. 
An exquisite pure white, cool and starchy looking, without 
any yellow in the center of the flower. Broad formed petals, 
not ruffled but sort of waved ever so lightly; fragrant. 
$2.50 
KENTUCKY BEAUTY (Carpenter 1943) L. 38”. 
Imagine Lighthouse in a larger flower with more cream 
rather than yellow cast in the center of the flower. A flower 
about one-third larger with a smart flare to the falls. A fine 
rose bicolor. We like this Iris very much. 
$1.50; 3 for $4.00 
KING’S JESTER (See introductions page 7.) ; 
KLONDYKE GOLD (Kirkland 1941) M. 34”. 
Enormous rounded flowers of rich gold. The copiously 
formed blooms have a good finish and substance. A quality 
Iris, missed by many of the experts. It ranks with the best 
large yellows. 75c; 3 for $2.00 
LADY BOSCAWEN (Graves 1946) M. 40”. * 
A white of elegant beauty in style of bloom, in color and in 
ruffling. Broad, fluted standards of pure white with moulded, 
flaring falls delightfully ruffled. Substance is strong and firm; 
large flowers well spaced on graceful stalks. The poise and 
decorum of this statuesque white are singled out by the dis- 
criminating Iris enthusiast. HM’46. AM’48. $6.50 
LADY MORR (Salbach 1944) E. 36”. * 
A headliner—positively unique. It is the most distinctive 
seedling of the interesting Wm. Mohr family breaking sharply 
from the lavender and violet colorations. It likewise brings 
to the bearded Iris a color combination unheard of until now. 
Impressive and exotic combination of oyster-white standards, 
rounded and lightly fluted; falls a contrasting pale char- 
treuse or greenish yellow with prominent veining and promi- 
nent dark patch of red-violet surrounding the beard. Un- 
expected and unusual. HM’44. AM’46, (Pictured page 27.) 
$2.50; 3 for $6.25 
LADY OF SHALOTT (Schreiner 1942) M. 34”. 
Precisely formed and lacily frilled, a charming, delicate color 
in the plicata group. Standards are heavily flushed rose-pink 
and the falls delicately edged with a peppering of minute 
pinkish dots both dainty and charming. 75¢; 3 for $2.00 
LAKE BREEZE (Fay 1945) M. 38”. 
Cool and refreshing Wisteria blue with just a suspicion of 
pink delicately suffused throughout. A descendant of Gloriole 
with that flower’s easy grace and casual ruffle. HM’45. 
$3.00 
LAKE GEORGE (Smith 1945) ML. 38”. 
A deep blue notable particularly for its nearly horizontal 
flaring falls. The parent of the new Blue Valley. HM/‘45. 
$3.50 
LAKE SHANNON (DeForest 1945) M. 36”. 
A broad petaled bright indigo-blue. Very intense coloring 
with the veins in the flowers interestingly suggesting even 
more blue throughout the flower. HM’46. $4.00 
LAMPLIGHT (Schreiner 1944) M. 34”. 
Tranquil, beautiful soft blend. A sprightly flesh-buff self with 
a lamplight glow. The flower possesses lots of style and is 
lovely because its color is softly, deftly combined without vein- 
ing in a harmonious whole. Smooth color, very well sub- 
stanced. Illustrated on page 12. $3.00; 3 for $7.50 
LANCASTER (Cook 1940) M. 36”. 
A very broad flower, the falls are full and rounded. In color 
a copper, old rose blended with a soft brown haft. HM’41. 
50c; 3 for $1.25 
LATE SUN (DeForest 1940) M. 40”. 
Rich, deep solid yellow with a red-gold overlay. The blooms 
are quite large and the stem branches well. Very good height. 
HM’42. 75c; 3 for $2.00 
_ LIGHTHOUSE (Salbach 1936) ML. 34”. 
A bright old rose. One of the most sought after of this color 
with a radiant golden glow from within; branched low. 
A crisp substanced flower certain to add life to your garden. 
HM’37. AM’40. 50c; 3 for $1.25 
LIGHTS ON (Lapham 1946) EM. 33”. 
One of the reddest Iris. Rich, smooth uniform color through- 
out. The color, glowing like a live coal, recalls the color tones 
of Red Gleam; fragrant. $6.00 
LILAC LANE (Whiting 1947) M. 36”. * 
A delicate toned lilac self with petals of surprising substance. 
A pearly iridescence enhances the tone. A cool, tranquil 
shade refreshing as lilac fragrance wafted on the breeze. 
There are few, if any, modern Ivis which resemble this one 
in tone. A splendid Iris of superb form. HM’48. $8.00 
LOCKWOOD (DeForest 1947) ML. 38”. 
Smooth bright brown blend with an attractive blaze on the 
rounded falls. A smooth flower of harmonizing colors on a 
well-branched stalk. $6.00 
LORD DONGAN (K. Smith 1940) M. 37”. * 
A grandee in the Iris world. Striking, solemn, even colored 
purple of Chinese-violet standards and broad, deep pansy- 
violet, plushlike falls. Unmarred by a solitary vein, a thick, 
intense yellow beard emphasizes its richness. An imposing 
and stunning harmony of rich violet tones. HM’40.
