Bearded Iris (Continued) 
Helen McGregor (Graves 1946) Color a clear blue, lighter than Great Lakes. Not a 
trace of lavender in it. Flowers large, of rounded form with very broad hafts 
and beautiful ruffling on both standards and falls. There is a silvery white flush 
surrounding the almost white beard. Heavy substance, sturdy stems and well 
branched. Rated 91 in 1946. A very desirable variety. Late midseason bloomer. 
36 e $3.00 
Heritage (D. Hall 1949) A flamingo pink. Deeper in tone than Hit Parade or Cherie. 
A nice full-petaled flower of heavy substance with slightly ruffled semi-flaring 
falls and nicely held standards. Smooth self, with no haft markings. A bright 
tangerine beard brightens up the whole flower. A lovely creation. $12.00 
Hit Parade (D. Hall 1947) This is one of the flamingo pink toned iris with fine tan- 
gerine beard. Free bloomer and _ increases rapidly. Slightly frilled. Well 
branched stems. 34”, $2.59 
illinois (D. Hall 1949) A cream-yellow self. Very large flower, well-formed and of 
good substance. Extra well branched stems. Vigorous grower and prolific 
bloomer. $4.00 
Illinois Sunshine (Faught 1946) Large yellow self with a intense orange beard. Sub- 
stance very fine. Good branching. A very fine yellow sure to please. $1.00 
Katherine Fay (Fay 1943) Here is a grand white by a comparatively new originator 
of iris who is going places with his new creations. It is a large, pure white with 
no yellow in the center. The falls are semi-flaring with enough ruffling to 
take away the plain appearance of a so-called tailored flower. It has excellent 
substance, is absolutely hardy in this climate, and should prove most desirable 
wherever iris can be grown. 35”. $1.00 
Lady Mohr (Salbach 1944) This is classed as a Eupogocyclus Hybrid. Very distinc- 
tive with charm and grace to a marked degree. Flowers are large and of rounded 
form with standards of oyster shell white, cupped and firmly held. The falls 
are chartreuse yellow with a lovely red violet blotch which radiates out into 
the falls. Has received H.M, and A.M. awards from the American Tris Society. 
40”. $1.09 
Lake Breeze (Fay 1945) A midseason blooming variety that is most refreshing and 
lovely. A large, very ruffled light blue iris with just a suspicion of pink delicate- 
ly diffused on the center of the standards and falls. Broad, full standards, firm- 
ly held and almost meeting over the beard. The falls are flaring and wide, with 
no haft markings. Orange beard shading off to white at the tip. Vigorous 
and thoroughly hardy, with nine to eleven heavy substanced flowers on each 
well branched stalk. 37”. This is a “must have” for every real iris fancier. 
$1.00 
Lilac Lane (Whiting 1947) Pink toned, lilac self. Not a pink but a very delicate mauve 
color of heavy substance. Pale-yellow beard. Slightly ruffled, very refined in 
effect. 36”. $7.00 
Lothario (Schreiner 1942) Large, rich, striking blue bi-color. Essentially the same 
color pattern as Amigo. Very huge in size on tall branched stems. Light blue 
standards and rich plush blue purple falls, without veining or markings. Full 
orange beard making a rich contrast in color combination. Late midseason. 42’,
