GYPSY BARON (Schreiner 1942) Each 1.00; 3 for 2.00 
Something on the order of Florentine this very dark plicata 
has deep bluish purple markings over the entire white ground. 
HARRIET THOREAU (Cook 1944) Each 1.00; 3 for 2.50 
A beautiful orchid pink self of much larger size and better 
form than the old orchid pink varieties. Very floriferous and 
most effective in a clump. 
HELEN McGREGOR (Graves 1946) Each 5.00 
The queen of all light blue iris and winner of the coveted 
Dykes medal last year. Of ethereal beauty and majestic port 
this champion iris will be in great demand for years to come. 
One that delights the most fastidious. 
INDIANA NIGHT (Cook 1942) Each 1.50 
Color is similar to its famous parent SABLE but flowers are 
larger and of flaring form. Well branched stems. 
INSPIRATION (Stevens 1937) Each 1.00 
A beautiful and unique variety developed in New Zealand. 
The novel color is described as rose cerise or rosy carmine and 
there is no other iris quite like it. The huge fragrant flowers 
are carried on 40 inch stems. Midseason. 
JAKE (Long-Sass 1943) Each .60 
As the saying goes, ‘’You can’t keep a good man down”. This 
noble iris has forced its way into the company of the highest 
priced white varieties with practically no fanfare to augment 
its popularity. This variety is recognized today as one of the 
topflight whites by most iris critics. 
JASPER AGATE (Williams 1943) Each 1.50 
Perhaps the acme in skillful color blending. Jasper red, shaded 
copper pink with enamel finish. Not tall but a real color 
jewel. 
JEAN CAYEUX (Cayeaux 1931) Each .40; 3 for .85 
This soft colored iris is still quite a novelty. The perfectly 
formed flowers are a light havana brown. 
JUNALUSKA (Kirkland 1934) Each .40; 3 for .85 
Truly a magnificent iris in the garden. Large flowers with 
coppery gold standards and coppery red falls. A very early 
bloomer that attracts everyone. 
KATHERINE FAY (Fay 1945) Each 2.00 
Very large and impressive alabaster white of semi-flaring 
form. Strong grower. 
LADY MOHR (Salbach 1944) Each 1.50 
The most distinctive novelty of the Wm. Mohr derivatives. 
Exotic in appearance and of elegant form this iris is entirely 
different. The domed standards are oyster white, the wide 
rounded falls soft olive yellow with dark veins and a dark 
reddish patch surrounding the beard. 
LADY OF SHALOTT (Schreiner 1942) Each .75; 3 for $1.50 
Our choice of the Schreiner plicatas. Dainty flowers of lightly 
ruffled form with white standards flushed soft rose and white 
falls margined with a peppering of rose pink. 
LAKE GEORGE (Smith 1945) Each 2.00 
Regarded as one of the top ranking deep blues and the parent 
of the new Blue Valley. The color is exceptionally clear and 
the form is flaring. Medium height. 
LAMPLIGHT (Schreiner 1944) Each 2.00 
A placid beauty of smoothest finish and excellent substance. 
Bright pinkish buff gives a good idea of the color of this 
lovely blend. 3 feet. 
LEADING LADY (Lyell 1949) Each 7.50 
Yes, this scintillating lady leads the parade of the new ice or 
lemon yellow iris. In no other variety are the white and 
lemon tones so sharply contrasted. It was a case of love at 
first sight with us and we think you too will be quickly won 
over by this beauty. 3 feet. 
LIGHTHOUSE (Salbach 1946) Each .50; 3 for 1.00 
Very large bright rose blend with just the slightest touch of 
yellow on the haft. A noble flower. 
10 
LIGHTS ON (Lapham 1946) Each 5.00 
A definite step nearer to the first RED iris. A redder and larger 
Red Gleam but not as tall. Outstanding. 
LORD DONGAN (K. Smith 1940) Each 1.00; 3 for 2.50 
A rich dusky purple of pleasing rounded form. Chinese violet 
standards and pansy purple falls. 
LOS ANGELES (Mohr-Mitchell 1927) Each .40; 3 for .85 
With all its admirable qualities this iris still ranks with the 
best blue and white plicatas. The perfectly poised flowers are 
clear white except for the bright blue stitching on the hafts 
and the base of standards. 
LOTHARIO (Schreiner 1942) Each 1.50; 3 for 4.00 
A regal iris of huge and striking color. Color pattern is quite 
like Amigo but twice the size. 
LOUISE BLAKE (K. Smith 1943) Each 1.50; 3 for 4.00 
This was one of the loveliest iris in our garden last year. An- 
other with the Amigo color pattern but so much more glitter- 
ing that it can hardy be compared with the older and duller 
variety. 
LOUVOIS (Cayeaux 1936) Each .50; 3 for 1.00 
The finest dark brown iris with a velvety finish. 
LUCKY STAR (Marx 1950) Each 1.50 
Crossing Amigo with Shah Jehan produced this intriguing 
iris of rounded form and largest size. Standards are creamy 
yellow, falls are the same color tinted blue which vanishes as 
the flower ages. A lovely new cream and a remarkable color 
considering it parentage. The globular flowers are perfectly 
placed on well branched 3 foot stems. Early to midseason. 
LYNN LANGFORD (Hall 1946) Each 3.50 
Occasionally we see a new iris which is much more beautiful 
than anticipated. This is one. A lustrous lavender pink self 
except for the golden yellow glow in the center. Large flowers 
of excellent texture and substance. 
MAGIC CARPET (Schreiner 1942) Each 1.00; 3 for 2.50 
Heavily marked plicata on the order of Firecracker with a 
light color pattern. 
MAJENICA (Cook 1941) Each .60; 3 for 1.50 
A large pinkish blend with just a tint of salmon. An iris of good 
habits and especially colorful in large clumps. 
MARQUITA (Cayeaux 1931) Each .40 
Every iris collection should include this glorious variety. The 
extra large standards are pure cream or ivory, the falls the 
same color but completely veined dark rose red. A rather late 
variety. 
MASTER CHARLES (Williamson 1943) Each 1.50; 3 for 4.00 
A rich refined iris of glowing mulberry purple. And the flar- 
ing form adds more charm. 
MATTERHORN (J. Sass 1938) Each .50; 3 for 1.00 
For those who want the purest white iris at a reasonable price. 
Large graceful flowers without a trace of foreign color. There 
is no veining on the hafts and even the beard is white. 
MELANIE (Hill 1941) Each .50; 3 for 1.00 
Very close to true pink, this splendid iris of lovely form on tall 
well branched stems is of highest quality. 
MELITZA (Nesmith 1940) Each .50; 3 for 1.00 
A pale flesh pink iris with the unique and flashy tangerine 
beard. At its best in part shade. 
MELLOWGLOW (Whiting 1942) Each 3.00 
One of the finest varieties from the Whiting garden and ac- 
claimed as one of the best blends today. The ruffled flowers 
are peach or apricot tinted pink with a conspicuous beard. 
A gorgeous creation. 
MEXICO (Kleinsorge 1943) Each 1.50 
Rich and colorful is this huge variegated blend. Golden bronze 
standards and brick red falls edged golden amber. Massive in 
plant and flower and a most imposing iris. 
MIDWEST GEM (H. Sass 1937) Each .40; 3 for 1.00 
Large buff and pink blend of unusually heavy substance. And 
the edges of the falls are intensely ruffled.
