GYPSY (Kleinsorge 1944) L. 38”. * 
A warm orangy cast variegata with copper-gold standards and

of the other varieties lack. HM’45. $1.00; 3 for $2.50 
GYPSY BARON (Schreiner 1942) EM. 40”. 
Unusual because of its unique marbling and striation of 
mulberry-purple on a crisp, silvery white background. It is 
like a feathery tracery of frost on a window pane. A digni- 
fied and mysterious plicata of splendid substance; fragrant. 
$1.00; 3 for $2.50 
GYPSY ROSE (Whiting 1946) ML. 38”. 
A warm tapestry red, tall and stately, with a smooth brushing 
of copper at the haft and a hint of blue at the tip of the 
heavy yiellow beard. ‘The blooms are extra large and broadly 
round in form so it ranks as one of the largest Iris. Well 
branched on strong stems. HM’49. $4.00; 3 for $10.00 
HARLEQUIN (Stevens Iris—See page 8). 
HARRIET THOREAU (Cook 1944) M. 38”. * 
A recent orchid-pink self with great style and individuality. 
The flowers are large and substantially built, slightly waved. 
A fine creation, there is a liquid quality to the coloring. It is 
one of the very finest Iris of its color and a vast improvement 
over old orchid-pink Iris. Floriferous and makes a lovely 
clump. See color illustrations pages 3 and 32. HM’45. 
$1.00; 3 for $2.50 
HEATH CREST (Whiting 1950) ML. 38”.

Iris for the background of your Ivis border. The striking 
tangerine beard and pleasant color are perfect foils for many 
unusual color combinations. $4.00 
HELEN McGREGOR (Graves 1946) EM. 36” * 
The illustration of this Iris aristocrat shows the superb form 
and beauty of coloring of this supreme light blue. One of 
the finest of all new Ivis. An ethereal clear light blue, the 
large, rounded and ruffled blossoms give a feeling of tran- 
quillity, serenity and repose marking it as a top notch Iris 
indeed. Beautifully spaced branches on correspondingly har- 
monizing stems. A Queen in the Iris Greats. Ilustrated on 
page 28. Dykes Medal Winner in 1949. $5.00 
HERITAGE (Hall 1949) EM. 34”. 
If you are intrigued by the new pinks this is one to consider. 
From a host of seedlings of this general color, Heritage was 
selected. A slightly deeper flamingo than Cherie with nicely 
formed, informally waved petals, it has of course the effective 
tangerine beard to cap off its delicate beauty; very nice. 
HM 49. $15.00 
HONEYFLOW (Tompkins 1944) ML. Soe

of extra heavy substance; fine branched stems. HM’46, 
$2.00 
HONOLULU BELLE (Becherer 1949) ML. 38”. 
A sharply contrasted blue bicolor, a color class that has suf- 
fered neglect by breeders. Light blue-lilac standards and rich, 
velvety deep blue falls with velvet sheen, a pattern of lux- 
uriant beauty. In addition to its brilliant color pattern this 
Iris has branching of perfect candelabra placement. Very 
individual and beautiful. $5.00 
HOOSIER SUNRISE (Lapham 1942) M. 40”.

are well substanced and flare prettily. HM’41. 
50c; 3 for $1.25 
IDANHA (Kleinsorge 1942) EM. 36”.

varieties that they cannot be compared. Idanha is practically 
alone in a pleasant color pattern, the standards are apricot- 
buff with pleasing pink falls. 75c; 3 for $2.00 
ILLINOIS SUNSHINE (Faught 1946) E. 38”.

AM’44. $1.50 
INDIAN HILLS (Grant 1937) M. 37”. 
A rich true purple, large sized, a self. Good substance and 
fine oval form. A thrifty grower and good propagator. Un- 
excelled for massing, it makes a gorgeous rich clump of color 
with unusual carrying power, AOc; 3 for $1.00 
INSPIRATION (Stevens 1937) M. 38”. * 
This sensational, vividly colored Ivis is always the focus of 
attention. One of the very richest of all the rose toned Iris, 
the giant blooms possess an unrivalled luster. ‘The broadly 
formed flowers are precisely formed as if carved. In tone it is 
light carmine or rose-cerise. A self of good size and nice 
branching stem. One of the most startling breaks in Iris 
coloring. Without a doubt it is one of the most original Ivis 
we grow. As gorgeous a color as can be imagined and one 
of the best rose Iris on the market; fragrant. Illustrated on 
pages 3 and 24. $1.00; 3 for $2.50 
ITALIAN JOY (Stevens 1947) ML. 36”. 
Certain Iris are superior to others for garden effect due to 
their fine color carrying qualities. Such an Iris is Italian Joy 
with its rich color and pert air. ‘The color is a glowing rosy 
wine flushed bronze with the falls a deeper shade of brilliant 
fuchsia, glowing and vivid. See page 9 for picture. 
$2.50

many newer kinds. 75c; 3 for $2.00 
JASMINE (Grant 1944) ML. 38”. 
A smooth golden yellow, Gardenia-like texture. The color is

coloring is noted. The beard is almost the same color. Stems 
are inclined to be a bit weak. HM’44. 
$2.00; 3 for $5.00 
JASPER AGATE (Mrs. T. Williams 1943) M. 34”.
