MELLOW GLOW — (Whiting 1942) M 
38”. Very aptly named is this mellow, 
glowing blend of deep peach, apricot and 
amber yellow. Broad petalled,highly ruf- 
fled and perfectly formed, brightened with 
a long heavy beard. This is the kind that 
makes you eager for spring to come, and 
to keep on living from spring to spring 
to see again this and the many other 
beautiful blending of colors found only in 
Iris. We gave $22.50 each for our starts 
and I am glad that we got them when we 
did. It is going to be very popular but 
scarce for some time. A first run picture

MINNIE COLQUITT—(H. P. Sass 1942)

class, with our visitors last season, it was

dards and falls are white, strikingly bor- 
dered with short and long stitching in 
wine-purple, all slightly ruffled. Vigorous 
grower, widely branched. Flowers that can 
take the wind and rain. A winner if there

MISS CALIFORNIA—(Salbach 1937) EM

listed in various catalogues as “gigantic 
lilac-pink”, “beautiful large orchid pink,” 
“enormous amaranth-pink.” Never-the- 
less it produces great pink-toned blooms 
on purple-tinged foliage, that last over a 
very long period. It does equally well in 
all parts of the country. This is always
