BAYOU VERMILLION (Debaillon-Dormon). This crimson Abbeville is con- 
sidered by some to be the best red in that group, is widely used for hybridizing. 
Its 614” flowers are borne on an 18” to 24” stem. The signal patch consists of four 
gold lines. $2.00. 
BEAUTIFUL MELODY. (Chowning, ’50). H.M., A. I. S., 51. Hybrid of Ac- 
colade X Dan Debaillon. Exquisite and dainty apple-blossom pink self, which has 
been greatly admired by all who have seen it. A truly lovely and distinctive 
Iris. Narrow gold line on sepal. 30 to 36 inches. Clean foliage. Hardy. Mid- 
season. $12.50. 
BLUE CHIP. (Smith, S., 50). H. M. ’51. This iris is heralded as the first 
blue of Abbeville form—an entirely new and much-sought-for coupling of form 
and color. The 6-inch flowers of hyacinth-blue have the form of Peggy Mac, long 
acknowledged the most perfect form of the Abbeville type. The 36-inch stalk with 
lateral branching displays the blooms to Biers debate One of the most advanced 
iris to date. $10.00. 
BRIARWOOD PUNCH. (Conger, ’50). This seedling of Cajun Joyeuse is a 
blend giving the effect of daphne red (Ridgway) with an undertone of gold, moss 
pink veining. The 54-inch flowers are displayed on a 30-inch stem. The rhizome 
does not grow in such strides as do most of these iris, thus affording a more com- 
pact clump. The name comes from the punch made of wild fruit juices served at 
Briarwood, the home of Miss Caroline Dormon and Mrs. Virginia D. Miller. Because 
it is a good multiplier, it is available at the low introduction price. $3.50. 
BRIGHT GALAXY. (Chowning, ’50). Extremely dark red-purple hybrid of 
Haile Selassie X Louise Austin. Flowers are flat, of medium size, extra good sub- 
stance and broad in their segments. Large greenish-yellow signal patch on sepal. 
Three:open flowers to a stem. Clean foliage, lasting color. 18 to 24 inches. Hardy. 
Early. $5.00. 
CADDO. (Trichel, 50). H.M., A. I. S., 50, M.S. D. Award ’50. This award- 
winning iris deserves the attention. The brilliant red-bronze or deep burgundy 
coloring of the well-formed flowers is contrasted by large, circular signal patches 
of bright gold. The sepals are orbicular and reflex gracefully. Hardy in New 
England and increases rapidly. 30” to 36”. $7.50. 
CAJUN JOYEUSE (Thomas). The general effect of this iris is rose-pink with 
the sepals a deeper shade than the petals. For consistancy of good bloom, and 
showiness of the clump, it is hard to beat. An excellent parent for hybridizing. 
$.50, 3 for $1.25, 6 for $2.25. 
CAMERON WHITE. (Cornay, ’47). A white noted for its large flaring white 
flowers of good substance. When most of the whites of giganticaerulea form were 
hurt by late freezes, this variety stood the adverse weather wonderfully. <A strong 
grower and excellent multiplier. $3.50.
