K N G L I S H IR I S (ILLUSTRATED ON BACK COVER) 
For the past several years we have been trying to 
build up a fair stock of good named varieties of English 
iris. This year we are listing a few of them. Stocks are 
not too plentiful and we have no idea how long they will 
last, so please order early and you won’t be disappointed. 
Even the mixed seedlings sell short, and we have never 
had enough to fill our orders. The named varieties have 
been selected for vigor and distinct coloration. You are 
sure to like them. 
EMPEROR. Tall, deep blue, vigorous; occasionally flecks 
darker. 3 for 35c; 12 for $1.25. 
FASCINATION. True cattleya orchid. Our favorite. 3 for 
50c; 12 for $1.75. (See back cover.) 
GALE S. HILL. A color break that’s different. Deep red- 
dish purple. 3 for 50c; 12 for $1.75. (See back cover. ) 
MT. RAINIER. Pure white, sturdy; the tallest we have 
grown. 3 for 50c; 12 for $1.75. 
R. M. COOLEY. Light blue, nice wide falls with yellow 
spot. 3 for 50c; 12 for $1.75. (See back cover. ) 
SANTIAM. Light orchid, having a tendency to fleck with 
violet, which does not detract from its appeal. 3 for 
90c; 3 for $1.75. 
MIXED COLORS. English iris in many colors; mostly 
mixed seedlings that have never been segregated. All 
colors are included, but we can’t tell what you will get. 
All are beautiful, with a possibility of finding some very 
outstanding ones. Colors include orchids, light and 
dark blues, medium blue, purple and white. 12 bulbs 
for $1.25. 
NEW IMPROVED DUTCH IRIS 
In the past few years we have tried out many new 
varieties of Dutch iris. Some have been discarded as not 
being superior to older sorts. From our plantings we have 
selected the following list as being the best we have 
grown. Priced somewhat higher than common varieties, 
they are just as hardy, average taller, with greatly im- 
proved colors. Because they are really outstanding and 
little known, a small planting in your garden will thrill 
you and your friends. We wouldn’t want to be without 
them. 
All priced at 3 for 35c (all one variety); 12 for $1.35; 
100 for $9.50. 
BELLE JAUNE. A two-toned orange-yellow that blooms 
rather late. 
BLUE PEARL. Extra tall, deep blue with yellow spot in 
falls. A newcomer with plenty of class; the tallest 
grower in this list. 
BRONZE BEAUTY. Standards violet blue, olive green 
falls with orange blotch. 
JEANNE D’ARC. Enormous creamy white with yellow 
blotch on falls. 
KING MAUVE. Very large orchid-lavender; a much 
needed color. 
LE MOGUL. Deep bronze with olive-bronze lip. It’s dif- 
ferent. 
LEMON QUEEN. Beautiful lemon yellow standards; falls 
slightly scalloped with even rounded notches. One of 
the loveliest, and an unusual color. 
MAUVE QUEEN. Very fine lilac-mauve. 
PRINCESS BEATRIX. Very deep golden yellow. Large 
flower. 
PRINCESS IRENE. Yellow with large orange-yellow 
blotch on falls, standards creamy white. Very distinct. 
SAXE BLUE. Standards delft blue, falls lighter blue with 
orange yellow blotch. Very strong grower and really 
an outstanding blue. 
WHITE TROPHY. Large, fine white with yellow blotch 
in falls.

“Last year I ordered your collection of rare Dutch Iris and was very 
pleased this spring with the assortment of colors, which I had never 
seen before in this type iris.” 
Mrs. J. S. Duthridge, Calif. 
NEW DUTCH IRIS 
“Am finally getting a little report to you about the bulbs of ENG- 
LISH IRIS you sent me a year ago. They were planted the first few 
days of Sept., used a heavy covering of leaves placed over branches to 
keep them from packing. It was all covered over with deep snow as we 
had a heavy snow fall before the ground froze. The iris all came up and 
bloomed the Iasi part of June, lasted about 10 days, and were beautiful 
and thoroughly enjoyed as they are so different.” 
Amy Ekstrand, Cokato, Minn. 
GOLDEN LION (Spanish iris). The blossoms on the 
Spanish iris are the same general shape as the 
Dutch, but this variety is in a class all its own. 
Standards are lemon yellow; falls, beautifully 
ruffled, are deep golden yellow. Without a doubt 
it is the finest Spanish iris, as large as any of the 
Dutch iris and more ruffled, but, being Spanish, 
blooms later. Stock limited. 3 for 40c; 12 for 
$1.50.
