frosty, light blue self. The large, widely

cially well branched, carrying 9 to 11

FROST GLINT, Whiting 1951. No. 4316 
(VATICAN PURPLE X WEST POINT). 
Mid-season to late, 34 inches. A cold blue 
white iris that has a most intriguing form 
and amazingly heavy substance. The flow- 
ers are large with closely domed, ruffled 
standards and widely flaring, heavily ruf- 
fled falls. The newly opened blooms are 
quite blue toned, clearing to near white 
later, and lasting for days. The stalks are 
strong and adequately branched. The 
plants are very robust and free with bloom 
and increase. H. M. 1951. $6.00 
GALLANTRY, Whiting 1945. No. 4078 
(WINNESHIEK X MATA HARI). Mid- 
season to late, 36 inches. A heavily ruffled, 
deep blue purple self, very unique in form 
and most attractive. The standards are not 
“domed” but held stiffly in a frilled cup, 
the falls flare broadly and are also heavily 
frilled. The substance is firm, the texture 
glossy, the color sun proof. Strong, widely 
branched stalks carry many blooms over a 
long period. Plants husky and prolific.

GARDEN GLORY, Whiting 1943. No 4055 
(THE RED DOUGLAS X GARDEN 
MAGIC) Mid-season to very late, 34 
inches. Deep wine red self with a glossy 
satin sheen. The color is warm and rich, 
glowing even on a dark day. The crisp, 
heavy substanced flowers withstand sun, 
wind and rain. The branching is in ex- 
cellent proportion to the size of bloom and 
the height of stalk. Some people wish that 
it might be taller or redder, but we like it 
just as it is and make no apology. The 
bronze red beard, the perfectly smooth, 
clean haft, the trim, flaring form, all add 
to its charm. The plants are not always 
large but are perfectly hardy, prolific and 
free flowering. We appreciated this com- 
ment in the 1949 Iris Year Book (England): 
“Garden Glory looks better every year and 
is consistently outstanding in spite of new 
and so called redder introductions. In 
height it is fairly short but its ruby red 
flowers throw their deep lustre from a 
distance at which many irises become in- 
distinct.” H.C. 1942, H.M. 1945, A.M. 1947,

flower that becomes more popular each 
year. Tall, rather high branched, with ex- 
cellent growing habits. 75c, 3 for $1.50

CUAIMMIEEOILN, OS (COVA 1eINREID)) d.€ 
AMARANTH). Late, 32 inches. A wax 
yellow iris of most unusual form and 
branching habits. The large, waxy flowers 
cling close to the stalk which resembles a 
spike of gladiolus. Very effective in the 
garden and stunning in formal flower ar- 
rangements. It breaks all the branching 
“rules’, but try a clump of it in front of 
VATICAN PURPLE and watch your gar- 
den visitors. Plants are robust and flori- 
fercus. $2.00, 3 for $4.00

ed, vigorous in growth and free flowering.
