DESCRIPTIVE LIST OF IRIS

pleasing and novel. The color is difficult to adequately describe, being a lovely 
shade of dulcet medium blue, with brushings of cream radiating through the 
flower. Flowers are very large, with full broad standards and copiously formed 
falls. Substance excellent and branching very good. 36”. $1.50 
Amandine (G. Douglas 1946) Clear smooth cream with a touch of lemon. Nicely 
ruffied. Very good substance. $3.59 
Amigo (Williams 1934) This iris is very suggestive of a velvety blue-purple pansy 
having very heavy texture and fine form. S. clear light lavender violet. F. 
deep hyacinth violet shading out to a lighter violet. 34’. . .50e 
Argus Pheasant (De Forest 1948) A smooth soft brown iris that has become very 
popular in a short time. The flowers are large with broad flaring falls, wide 
standards and orange brown beard. 38 inches tall. If you grow this variety

brown irises to date. $10.00
