RAEJEAN, Whiting 1940. No. 3967 
(AMITOLA X COPPER PIECE). Late, 
38 inches. A verv large, two toned 
yellow of rich, warm coloring. The 
closely domed standards are deep yel- 
low, the falls lighter with a deep yel- 
low border. The substance is very firm 
and the texture glistening. Its high 
branching makes it more effective at 
the back of the border. One of the first 
irises we named, it has retained its 
popularity in the garden and in breed- 
ing. Some very exciting new two toned 
yellows from RAEJEAN are appearing 
both in our own and in other hybrid- 
izers’ seed beds. H. M. 1942. 100 Best

inches. We are proud that Mr. Sass 
used our own ROUGE BOUQUET to 
help achieve this stunning iris. It is a 
true bicolor without the border on the 
fall, which is typical of a variegata. 
The standards are pure gold leaf, not 
yellow; the falls are brilliant, glowing 
red. The flowers are of moderate size 
and compact form with nicely flaring 
falls and very heavy substance. The 
stalks are well branched, the plants 
strong and prolific. H. C. 1944, H. M.

((SANDALWOOD X NARANJA) X

son, 36 inches. A deep orange toned 
yellow of brilliant coloring. The falls 
are quite smoothly overlaid with brown 
red over deep yellow, which gives a 
distinct orange effect. The standards 
are pure deep yellow. The flowers are 
large, well formed and fuller than pic-
