NEW ORIENTAL HYBRID IRIS 
This enchanting strain of iris is the result of much intercrossing involving chrysographes, Wilson, delavayi and Forestii. 
Their requirements and habits in general are the same as those for the Siberian varieties. They are a most welcome group 
as their color range is wider and more varied and their flowering between the Siberian and Japanese varieties provides 
color when there is a dearth of iris bloom. Size of flowers is about the same but their form is variable and often unlike the 
Siberians. All are splendid garden subjects and also offer exciting material for flower arrangements. We expect the three 
selected for introduction this year to win great favor with iris lovers and especially those who seek iris interests outside the 
GOLD SPOT 
GOLD SPOT (Chrysographes Hybrid) 
PINWHEEL (Chrysographes Hybrid) 
Each 2.00 
Ever since this charming iris first bloomed 3 years ago it has 
attracted lots of attention. Of Siberian form the flowers are a 
distinct shad2 of reddish mauve set off by a large banana yel- 
low blotch on each fall. See illustration. A lovely iris and 
nice for cutting. 36 inches. 
Each 2.00 
A DOUBLE iris that is most attractive. The symmetrical out- 
line and perfect placement of the extra segments suggested the 
name to an iris critic who admired this unique hybrid. In 
place of 3 standards and 3 falls the component parts number 
4 and 6 respectively. Color is glowing reddish purple or 
Amaranth with the bright gold spear in each fall. This 
hybrid will add interest to any iris collection. 36 inches. 
BLACK PIRATE (Delavayi Hybrid) Each 2.00 
Of largest size this dark beauty has always been a garden 
highlight and we could hardly wait until there was sufficient 
stock to permit its introduction. The velvety blackish violet 
flowers are borne on stiff 40 inch stems and each fall is 
marked by a conspicuous white stripe. An iris of real merit 
that we can recommend most highly. 
The package of plants has arrived and thank you for sending such fine 
healthy ones, also thank you for the extra Iris Karaginu. ... The plants 
were packed so beautifully and were so fresh when they came. Thank 
you again.
