GREAT LAKES—(Cousins 1938) M 40”. 
This is one of our favorite blues. A strik- 
ing blue without veining. Beard almost 
white. Standards firm and roundly domed, 
falls very flaring. Handsome foliage, per- 
fectly branched. It’s rugged and a hardy 
increaser. Dykes Medal 1942................ 50¢ 
GUDRUN—(K. Dykes 1930) EM 33”. 
Another old stand-by that will still be 
good many years from now. A warm or 
creamy white softly dusted with gold 
throughout, with a brilliant orange beard. 
Its heavy textured large petals remind one 
of magnolia blossoms. A consistent win- 
ner at the Iris shows. Fine for foreground 
planting. A must if you have never had

Midnight blue absolute self. A deep blue 
but not a purple. The beard is the same 
shade of -blue#..... es een ced, $2.00 
GYPSY—(Kleinsorge 1940) L 40”. Here 
is one that commands attention. Coppery 
gold standards with falls of solid chestnut 
brown. This is a stunning variegata, a late 
bloomer with large flowers on tal] well 
branched stalks. We paid $13.50 each 
for our starts and do not regret it. Year 
by year as they become more plentiful 
the price comes down. Why wait several 
years for it to get down to two-bits? When 
you see this bloom you will kick yourself 
for notebuying it last: years s- $1.00

HEIRLOOM— (Grant 1938) M. 36”. Not 
so well known probably because it is a 
little on the slow side for increasing. 
Never-the-less it is a lovely Iris that 1s 
different. The standards are of blue- 
purple flushed with dahlia carmine. Falls 
are broad of velvety fuschia red with a 
metallic sheen, and a very contrasting 
orange beard. At the price it’s worth a

Irises. It is very large, ideally spaced on 
nice stems. A clear blue, lighter than 
Great Lakes and no trace of lavender. 
Beautiful ruffled borders on both stan- 
dards and falls, enhanced by a silvery 
white flush on the falls, and an almost 
white beard. It will be scarce tor some

We have a ledger sheet for each variety 
of iris where we keep a performance rec- 
ord and a field count once or twice a year. 
After our field count at the end of the year 
we arrive at our price for the following 
year. If some varieties are running out our 
ears, our price will probably be cheaper 
than the other fellow’s. If we are somewhat 
short on an item we will probably be higher. 
The old law of supply and demand controls 
our prices. We have thousands of clumps 
of many varieties, even to the higher priced 
and newer kinds.
