PEGGY MAC (McMillan). This is the ideal in the flat, overlapping Abbeville 
form. The 6” magneta-rose flowers are borne frequently three at one time on a 
30” stem. Has proved an excellent parent. $2.00. 
QUAPAW TRIBE. (Chowning, ’50). Hybrid of Cardinalis X Louise Austin. 
Large flowers of bright copper-rose with long gold signal patch on sepal. Three 
open flowers to a stem. Fast color, clean foliage, 20 to 24 inches. Hardy. Late 
Mid-season. $5.00. 
_; ROSE OF ABBEVILLE. (Dormon, C., 50). H. C., A. I. S., ’51. A result of 
Old Coral X Peggy Mac. The large 6-inch flowers are quite ruffled and creped. 
The form is flat with broad overlapping segments. The color is soft rose. Here 
is the first iris of Abbeville form with a triangular signal patch. Height 30 inches. 
$7.50. 
ROSES AND WINE. (Conger, ’50). A sister seedling of Caroginia, similar, 
but with an entirely different personality. Whereas Caroginia is more stately and 
tailored, Roses and Wine is a bit more merry. The sepals of the 5%4-inch flowers 
have an ochraceous salmon ground closely and heavily veined bordeaux, shading 
out to dahlia purple at the edge. At the tip it pinches slightly—just enough to 
add a mark of individuality. The fluted petals are jasper pink with an occasional 
stitch of dahlia carmine for good measure. 30 inches. Mid-season. $5.00. 
ROYAL GEM. (Smith, S., 50). H. M., A. I. S., 751, A. I. S. President’s Cup, 
’51, Horticultural Achievement Award, National Council of State Garden Clubs’ 52. 
Another iris of beautiful form, texture, substance, and coloring. The form is flat 
with overlapping floral segments; the petals stand stiffly at a 30-degree angle over 
the sepal; the sepals are flaring, are orbicular, and display a triangular signal patch 
of bright gold that does much to enhance the beauty of the intense red-violet of the 
rest of the flower. The texture is of a high sheen velvet; the substance is firm. 
Three blooms open simultaneously on one stalk is common. Occasionally there will 
be four. A most worthy iris. $7.50. 
SPRING SORCERY. (Chowning, 50). A hybrid of an Abbeville Red X (Hex- 
agona X Giganteacoerulea). Large golden-apricot self. Very floriferous with 
strong clean foliage and upright stalk. 30 inches. Hardy. Early, but long flower- 
ing. $7.50. 
SUNNY. (Smith, S., 50). This clear yellow flower is a bright spot in any 
planting. On a 30-inch stalk are displayed its 54-inch flat flowers. Lateral 
branching helps make this one of our most floriferous yellow iris. A charming 
variety. $3.50. 
SUSIE KLINE. (Trichel, ’51). Mrs. Trichel is honoring one who has done so 
much for horticulture in North Louisiana by her writing and lecturing. Long a fa- 
vorite with many before its introduction, it is a welcome addition to commercial 
lists. The flaring, graceful flowers of rosemauve and campanulate form with a 
brilliant large signal patch are shown three and four at one time on a sturdy stem 
of 30” to 36”. An excellent variety. $7.00.
