white background. Good branching. Rates 89. 39”. $1.00 
Blue Valley (K. Smith 1947) Large and beautifully shaped medium blue self with 
flaring falls. A very close approach to true blue. Delightfully ruffled upon open- 
ing. Has a fine metallic sheen that sparkles all over. Haft is wide and the color 
continues into the heart of the flower. Beard tipped a light, dull orange. Ex- 
cellent branching and flowers well spaced. Vigorous grower and fast increaser.

Bryce Canyon (Kleinsorge 1944) Named for this colorful canyon. The warm shades 
of henna and copper closely resembles the mellow, yet glowing colors to be 
found in that region. Large, with highly domed standards and rather rounded 
falls. Bronze yellow beard. Firm substance, Height and branching good. H. M., 
A.I.S: Midseason. - 36”. $1.50 
Cahokia (Faught 1948) Here is a beautiful iris that should be of great interest to 
hybridizers. Color is a lovely shade of light blue with no trace of lavender. 
About the nearest to true blue that we have seen. The beard is golden yellow 
and all haft markings are hidden by the extreme fullness of the flower. Form 
of flower and substance excellent. Stem is strong, straight and well branched. 
Medium late. About 40”. $10.00 
Cascade Splendor (Kleinsorge 1945) Most attractive in color and form. This large- 
flowered blend of pink, apricot and tan has won high praise from iris judges. 
Flowers large and of good substance, with decided ruffling in both standards 
and falls. Sturdy stems with good branching. H.M., A.I.S. ,1945. Late. 36”. 
$2.09 
Chamois (Kleinsorge 1944) Pure chamois in color with a satin finish that sparkles 
as if dusted with frost crystals. The color harmony of the smoothly finished 
falls is completed in the yellow beard, tipped bronze. Both standards and falls 
are waved. Very large, heavy-substanced flowers. This is one of the finest 
pastels. 34”. $2.50 
Chantilly (D. Hall 1945) This iris has a heavy frilling done in such a free and easy 
manner it gives the petals the effect of being edged with old lace of a lighter 
shade than the rest of the flower. The color is orchid-pink and the flower is very 
large. Chantilly is from the same line of breeding as the flamingo pinks that 
Mr. Hall is doing so much with. Has very good substance, is winter-hardy ana 
a free bloomer. $2.00 
Cherie (D. Hall 1947) A large, ruffled, full bodied flamingo pink self of excellent 
form and substance, with a deep tangerine beard. Stems stout and well branched. 
Strong grower and rapid increaser. Hardy. A beautiful pink. 34”. $12.00 
Chivalry (Wills 1944) A most impressive flower, It is deeper in color than Great 
Lakes and larger in size. The domed standards are large and full. The flaring 
falls are broad hafted and strong. The beard is orange, changing to blue at tip. 
Standards and falls are ruffled. Well branched and splendid placement of 
blooms. This is a very fine real blue iris of outstanding merit. 36”. $3.00 
Choir Boy (Schreiner 1947) A very late blooming amoena. Medium-sized flowers, 
milk-white standards and dark-blue falls. $1.50
