Every Man’s Orchid 
Everblooming ORCHID LRIS 
From the wilds of Siberia, near the town of Shilka, 
comes this new, hardy, Everblooming Orchid Iris, 
which was brought to this country by Carl A. Han- 
sen from one of his world-wide plant exploration ex- 
peditions. 
A real hardy outdoor perennial for the Northwest. 
It blooms continuously for six to eight weeks after 
all other Irises are gone. Its wide, spreading blooms 
possess lovely, delicate tones of superb orchid and 
blue, mingled with creamy white as found in the 
finest orchids. 
With this latest addition to the Iris family, it is now 
possible for everyone to have flowers growing in 
their own gardens, so like the expensive orchids. 
Long slender stems bear as many as twelve to fif- 
teen superbly beautiful flowers on each plant, all at 
one time, hundreds before the season is over. 
The flowers of the new Shilka are delicately fra- 
grant, a remarkable attribute to.an already beautiful 
flower. Many of the blossoms come double. 
The foliage, like other Irises, is attractive all 
through the season, in beds or in border plantings. 
Everyone who likes Irises should plant this newest 
and finest, Shilka Iris.

Lovely, Dark Red Flowers—Maroon-Red 
Cut-Leat Foliage Tinseled with Silver. 
‘RED SILVER 
Flowering Crab 
A CARL A. HANSEN INTRODUCTION 
A REAL WORTHWHILE 
ORNAMENTAL 
The glorious flowering crab that is completely 
red in flower, leaf, bark and fruit. Makes a fine 
lawn tree. Rich maroon red from top to bottom. 
A very remarkable new ornamental recently intro- 
duced by Carl A. Hansen. Most flowering crabs 
are desirable because of the mass of blooms which 
they have in such profusion for a short time, but 
the Red Silver is beautiful from spring until late 
fall because of its all-over red color. 
The underside of the leaves are tinseled with 
silver, making it all the more beautiful as the 
blend of maroon and silver is a unique combina- 
tion throughout the season. The leaves are some- 
what cut-leaf, adding to its striking beauty. 
This small tree, graceful in its lines, with such 
beautiful foliage, has a color so intense that it is 
little affected by the summer heat. The flowers 
are a rich, deep red and altogether lovely. One of 
the greatest hardy flowering crabs ever introduced. 
Showy and different.
