ML. 36 in. Really good purple Iris

the flower is entirely self colored 
even to the full broad hafts which are 
solidly shaded the same glossy pur- 
ple. We consider this Iris exception- 
al. A descendant of illustrious Red 
Douglas, it carries the fine attributes 
of this well bred Iris into a rich glos- 
sy purple. $3.50

RED GLEAM. Some critics claim this

ham now claims the prize. 60¢ 
RED MAJESTY. The color is deep 
Eugenia rose (Ridgway), a self ex- 
cept for the yellow infusion at the 
center of the flower. The blooms are 
large with standards flushed yellow 
at the base of the strong midrib, the 
falls semi-flaring, overlaid with the 
same rich yellow around the thick 
yellow beard. The perfect placement 
of the flowers on the five-way branch- 
ing stalk allows four flowers to be 
open at one time with no crowding.
