associate with the darker colored Iris. Has perfection of form, styling and 
color. A vibrant and brilliant shining gold, no veining or shading mars the 
purity of coloring which is enhanced by a rich beard. Pictured on page 24, 
AM’42. DM’44. $1.00; 3 for $2.50 
STAINED GLASS (Wilhelm 1939) M. 36”.

STARDOM (Hall 19471) M. 36”. 
Rapturous salmon shading to apricot-buff. A clump gives the effect of glow- 
ing coppery salmon. Bright orange beard, extremely vigorous. A heavy 
flowering, lusty growing, hardy, effective garden Iris. HM’40. AM’43. 
50c; 3 for $1.25 
STORM KING (Nicholls 1940) L. 40”. 
Massive and imposing, silky blackish purple flowers. A very late flowering 
variety of immense blooms, wide flaring falls. The uniformity of color 
without veins of any kind gives a rich and original Iris. Not a fast grower.

SUKEY OF SALEM (Nesmith 1946) M. 38”. . 
A pleasant medley of beige and rose tints skillfully combined with a gleam-

SULTAN’S ROBE (Salbach 1945) M. 36”. 
A rich deep rose to red shaded with varying hues of copper and gold. The 
big broad flaring falls have a dashing accent of color. A bright violet-blue 
blaze in the center of the falls accentuates the colors in a striking manner. 
$3.00 
SUNSET BLAZE (Kleinsorge 1948) EM. 40”. 
An impressive, blazing golden flame blend. In some lights it seems almost 
red, at another angle it looks heavily influenced with burnished gold. ‘This 
Iris was the winner of the President’s Cup for 1949 for the striking display 
it gave in the garden. HM’49, $10.00 

GOLDEN FLEECE > 
SPANISH PEAKS (Loomis 1947) ML. 38”. % 
A flower from Colorado and like its snow-capped 
peaks this Iris is as we would expect it. It is 
completely white—the flower, the throat, the haft, 
the beard, the style arms—all white. Very nicely 
formed blooms, broad petaled, heavily sub- 
stanced and fine textured. One of the finest new 
white creations. As evidence of its fine qualities 
it placed high in the symposium of the AIS the 
first year it was distributed, an achievement very 
few Iris can boast. HM’48. $12.50 
SPINDRIFT (Loomis 1944) ML. 36”, * 
A remarkable Iris is this seashell-pink. One of 
the most decided color breaks in years. A trans- 
lucent, delicate seashell or coral-pink. Its crown- 
ing glory, a deep tangerine-orange beard, is 
boldly accented against this lovely color. Its wax- 
like substance holds the delicate coloring very 
well and flowers take the hottest sun without 
fading. We regret that the colored illustration 
on page 23 could not quite capture the more 
salmon-coral tint which would be an even finer 
reproduction. Very popular. HM’45, 
$2.00; 3 for $5.00
