Extra Special For Iris Fans 
We are not commercial iris growers, but 
we do some hybridizing in them. Here we 
have two of the most outstanding iris we 
have seen in recent years, not of our own 
breeding, but bred by the late Mr. Luke 
Norton and grown by us from seedlings. 
We know that you will not be disappoint- 
ed in any way with either of them and we 
think so much of them we wanted to in- 
troduce them ourselves even though we 
specialize in daylilies. 
ARLENE WOOD 
One of the most beautiful iris in any gar- 
den today, a cross of Vision Fugitive X 
Turquoise Frill (Seedling) by the late Mr. 
Luke Norton, originator of many iris 
ereats inciudiig Syivia Wiurray. This’ iris 
has everything it takes, fine growing 
habits, good branching, blooming medium 
late and blooming over a much _ longer 
period than most. Probably the heaviest 
ruffled iris to date with great substance 
and the overall flower is large, being twice 
the size and ruffling of Chantilly. The color 
is something different, the standards be- 
ing a beautiful dove orchid and dome 
tightly closed in a whorl. The falls open 
an intense lilac orchid, quickly aging to 
soft orchid center with edging of deeper 
lilac orchid. The haft is extremely clean 
and the beard soft lemon. Falls are wide 
and well balanced. The overall picture of 
this iris in a clump is exquisite. This iris 
has been highly commended by many of 
the best iris judges in the west. 
JANE HOFFORD 
This great iris is a full sister to Arlene 
Wood and is identical in every way except 
in color. The flower opens a full rich 
cream, aging to soft cream in the Stand- 
ards and the falls to a cream white center 
edged inviemon which js enhanced by ie 
intense ruffling of the whole flower. Ex- 
cellent branching, a good producer. It 
blooms at the same time as Arlene Wood 
and as stated above, cannot be told from 
each other except in color. Here again we 
have the clean haft and a beard of match- 
ing lemon. 
Both of these great iris are sold with the 
understanding that if they do not come 
up to the above descriptions, the buyer 
may select the amount paid for them in 
any item from our listing. 
The PRICE is only $10.00 each and if both 
of them are purchased at the same time, 
the price shall be $17.50 for both of them. 
Prepaid to your door about July Sth. 
Mrs. W. H. Keen, THS Judge of Walla 
Walla, the Iris City, says: “Arlene Wood 
is a lovely new creation in the iris world. 
No other iris in this color range to my 
knowledge and most all the newer intro- 
ductions are grown in this valley where 
we have several iris fanciers and five 
dealers who vie with each other in grow- 
ing ihe finest varieties available. Arlené~— 
Wood is a cross of Vision Fugitive and 
Turquoise Frill, a seedling, larger and 
more ruffled than most and four local 
A.IL.S. judges who saw it blooming in my 
garden were thrilled with it and express- 
ed delight that it would soon be placed 
on the market.”
