SULTAN’S ROBE. (Salb. 1945). M. 36 in. 
Blended copper gold and rose red, with 
shimmering blue on the falls. A beauti- 
ful iris and a superb parent. H.M., 
1946. $1.00 
SUMMIT. (Stevens, 1951). M. This 
white and yellow amoena has greater 
color contrast than any of the New Zea- 
land amoenas. The standards are white 
and the falls deep yellow. Tall and well 
branched, it is a distinct addition to this 
class of iris. 40 inches. $12.00 
SUNSET BLAZE. (Kleinsorge, 1948). A 
tall and huge golden flame-salmon blend, 
almost a red, but with so much of the 
gold influence in it that it is not really a 
red iris. You have seen the sun look much 
like this just before it sinks over the hori- 
zon. Both standards and falls are extra 
large and the haft and beard are bright 
golden yellow. A most impressive flower. 
Winner of the President’s cup at the 
A.LS. convention in 1949. H.™M., A.LS., 
1949. $3.50 
SUNSET SERENADE. A soft golden tan 
in effect. Standards apricot buff; falls 
orange vinaceous, yellow beard. Large 
flower. Sparkles. A.M., 1945. 60c 
SUNSHINE. The deepest yellow from 
Mr. Hall. A fine thing. 60c 
SUZETTE. Clear, creamy yellow, lightly 
spotted with maroon on edges. Sturdy 
well placed large flowers. A winner. 90¢

SYLVIA MURRAY. Here is the greatest 
light blue to date. One of the great 
blues and right at the top. Mr. Norton 
selected this one, and his choice was sen- 
sational. H.M., A.M., 1949. $1.00 
SYRINGA. A clear, pure lilac self and 
broad semi-flaring falls with golden retic- 
ulations on the haft. Fragrant. A fine 
thing indeed. H.M., 1947. $1.00 
Our winters are tough and hard; sum- 
mers and dry and hot; this produces hardy 
stock. No rainy climate. 
TAN BOY. (Marx, 1949). A “glorified 
Jean Cayeaux” was the description of 
one iris critic in 1948 and we will add 
that the color, though somewhat similar, 
is richer and not as dull. A light bronze 
self. The standards are old bronze and 
the falls a shade lighter and brighter. 
The massive, lightly ruffled flowers are 
perfectly placed on superbly branched 
stems about 38 inches high. Excellent 
substance and texture are outstanding 
features of this fine iris. Rather late. $3.50 
TAPESTRY ROSE. Large flowers of soft 
old rose; 38 inches tall. From Mr. Hall. 
Grand color. H.M., 1942. 60c 
TEA ROSE. Almost a pure self of glow- 
ing copper pink. Grand. H.M., 1945. 90c 
THE CAPITOL. (Maxwell-Norton). A 
large clear crystalline white with ex- 
tremely heavy deep golden beard and 
haft is golden. Very large heavy flower. 
Flowers well spaced, strong stalks, 38 
inches tall. This is a standout. Glistening 
snow white. H.M., 1946. A.M., 1951. $1.00 
THE ADMIRAL. Deep medium blue. 
Very fine, large flower. Award Merit. 50c 
THE RED DOUGLAS. This red Dykes 
Medal winner from Mr. Sass speaks for 
itself. Color in general is raisin purple 
in dahlia purple. Lovely. 50c 
THOTMES I. (Kleinsorge, 1950). This 
newest one is medium light in tone, a 
smooth self of glistening golden tan with 
a light bronze beard. It is a gigantic Iris 
with extra broad falls and heavy texture. 
40 inches tall. H.M., A.LS., 1951. $12.00 
THREE CHEERS. Standards are light 
opaque blue, nearly white, falls are red 
purple. Whitish blue beard. Lovely in- 
deed. H.M., 1946. $1.00 
TIETON. (Norton, 1948). Here is a cross 
of Royal Scot x Lady Naomi that is really 
a different plicata. Standards are tan- 
buff solid, with stitching of same lovely 
color on the edge of the falls, with white 
background in center of the falls. Golden 
beard, large flower of strong substance, 
strong stalk, and about 38 inches tall. $1.50 
THREE OAKS. This glowing rose pink is 
far ahead of its advance notice. Call it 
deep mellow pink. with overlay of rosy 
copper. A.M., 1949. 75¢ 
TIFFANJA. Another DeForest beauty 
that is a headliner. Standards near colon- 
ial buff. Lovely. H.M., A.M., 1946. 50c 
TOBACCO ROAD. It is a golden tobacco 
brown, and a self in color. Superb. H.M., 
A.M., 1946. $2.25 
TOURNAMENT. (J. Wills, 1948). L. This 
large luminous iris is one of the best in 
the rose-purple class, really more rose 
than purple. Its color carries to a great 
distance in the garden. The rounded 
flowers have broad full standards and 
wide semi-flaring falls, enriched with a 
velvety brown overlay on the hafts. Good 
substanced flowers, strong, sturdy stalks. 
A great addition in prolonging the sea- 
son of bloom. HM. A.ILS., 1948. 42 
inches, $3.00 
TRANQUILITY. (Fay, 1950). A very 
large milk-white flower 
on perfectly 
branched stalks. 
38 inches tall. Heaviest 
substance. Round flower with domed 
standards and flaring falls. Maybe the 
best white. $7.50
