ALASKA 6 for 1.00; 12 for 1.75; 100 for 8.50 
The only yellow Dutch Iris that is an absolute self. The en- 
tire color is pure deep yellow. Early and an excellent forcer. 
ANKARA 6 for 1.50; 12 for 2.75; 100 for 15.00 
The finest bronze variety in existence. The massive flowers 
with wide standards and falls, strong stems and good foliage 
and the clear rich color promise a most popular variety within 
a few years. Very late. 
ARTHUR BRIET 6 for 1.00; 12 for 1.75; 100 for 10.00 
Large flower of uncommon beauty. Standards bluish purple, 
falls olive bronze with an immense orange signal patch. Mid- 
season. 
BELLE JAUNE 6 for .85; 12 for 1.50; 100 for 7.50 
Beautiful two-toned yellow of large size that is already im- 
mensely popular. The color effect is golden yellow but the 
standards are actually several shades lighter. Splendid long 
strong stems and excellent forcing qualities make this an 
ideal florist’s variety. Early. 
BLUE CHAMPION 6 for 1.00; 12 for 1.75; 100 for 8.50 
Perhaps the largest Dutch variety in existence. Beautiful clear 
medium blue flowers with a large yellow patch on each fall. 
On the order of Wedgwood but blooms way after the early 
variety is gone. 
BLUE PEARL 6 for .85; 12 for 1.50; 100 for 7.50 
This and National Velvet are the two darkest varieties in our 
collection. The color is deep violet with a bright yellow sig- 
nal. Most colorful in the garden. Midseason. 
BLUE RIBBON 6 for .85; 12 for 1.50; 100 for 7.50 
Our favorite of all blue Dutch Iris. The color is royal blue 
of amazing intensity and velvety texture unlike any other 
blue. Immense plants and foliage produce the big flowers 
very early. Largest bulbs of all. Without doubt one of the 
greatest new introductions. 
BRONZE BEAUTY 6 for .85; 12 for 1.50; 100 for 7.50 
A novel and distinct color in Dutch Iris. Bright purple stand- 
ards and bronze olive green falls. An intriguing color com- 
bination that has caught the fancy of iris fans to such extent 
that the supply is always short of demand. A fascinating 
cut flower and a fine keeper. Midseason. 
BRONZE QUEEN 6 for .85; 12 for 1.50; 100 for 7.50 
One of the loveliest bronze varieties. Standards bluish bronze, 
falls coppery bronze with large orange blotch. Prized as a 
cut flower. 
DELFT BLUE 6 for .85; 12 for 1.50; 100 for 7.50 
The name describes the color which is distinct from any other 
variety grown. An iris for the connoisseur who seeks a dif- 
ferent blue iris. Vigorous and an excellent forcer. Early to 
midseason. 
GOLD AND SILVER 6 for 1.50; 12 for 2.75; 100 for 15.00 
A 1950 introduction and our most striking bicolor. As the 
name implies the standards are clear white without a trace of 
yellow and the falls are deep yellow with orange signals. Robust 
plants produce the giant flowers on tall stiff stems. May be 
forced. Midseason. 
HARMONY 6 for 1.00; 12 for 1.75; 100 for 10.00 
Most unusual color combination that can be truly classed as 
a tricolor. Standards are clear blue, the circular olive yellow 
falls are contrasted by an extra large orange yellow signal. It 
stands out in any collection. Early. 
JOAN OF ARC 6 for 1.00; 12 for 1.75; 100 for 8.50 
On2 of the very largest whites and the best of this color for 
forcing. Creamy white flow2r on extra tall stem. Early and a 
beauty in the garden. 
KING MAUVE 6 for 1.00; 12 for 1.75; 100 for 8.50 
Delicate violet mauve and the nearest approach to orchid in 
Dutch Iris. Large full flowers on fine stems. Good forcer as 
well as a beautiful garden variety. Midseason. 
LE MOGOL 6 for .85; 12 for 1.50; 100 vor 7.50 
Handsome new bronze variety. Illustration depicts its beauty 
accurately. Very late. 
LEMON QUEEN 6 for 1.00; 12 for 1.75; 100 vor 8.50 
Very large beautiful variety. Lemon yellow standards and sul- 
phur yellow falls. Good forcer. 
LEMON WONDER 6 for 1.25; 12 for 2.25; 100 for 12.50 
One of the largest of all Dutch Iris and a wondrous beauty in 
the garden. A self of lustrous lemon yellow with a subdued 
orange signal. Medium stems and late.

MARCONI 
6 for .85; 12 for 1.50; 109 for 7.50 
Immense flowers of flaring form. Standards white faintly suf- 
fused lilac, falls creamy white with huge orange signal. A 
spectacular garden variety and a gorgeous cut flower. Long 
stiff stems. 
MAUVE QUEEN 6 for 1.25; 12 for 2.25; 100 for 12.50 
Delicate shad2 of silvery mauve, the falls of deeper hue and 
decorated with a yellow stripe. Lovely cut flower and a good 
forcer. 
NATIONAL VELVET 6 for 1.25; 12 for 2.00; 100 for 10.00 
This grand novelty resembles the Dutch Iris in habit but the 
color, a deep glowing violet purple, is unlike anything szen in 
the Dutch varieties. The flowers are somewhat different in 
form and the vivid orange blotch on each fall enhances the 
beauty of this exciting new hybrid. 24 inches. 
ORANGE KING 6 for 1.50; 12 for 2.75; 100 for 15.00 
The largest and deepest solid orange yellow we have yet seen. 
Outstanding both in the garden and for cutting; a strong 
grower with the huge flowers on tall stiff stems. Very late. 
PRINCESS BEATRIX 6 for 1.25; 12 for 2.25; 100 for 12.50 
Very larg2 and the most radiant Dutch Iris in our collection. 
Standards are golden yellow and the falls are deepest orange. 
The color simply glows. 
PRINCESS IRENE 6 for 1.25; 12 for 2.25; 100 for 12.50 
Striking new variety of brilliant contrasting colors. Standards 
clear white, falls deepest orange. Very large and one of the 
very best. 
STRANGER (De Goede) 6 for 1.50; 12 for 2.75 
A nw introduction that is a most fascinating color combina- 
tion. Standards are dzep violet, falls chartreuse bronze with 
a bright orange signal. A bizarre and striking variety that was 
a center of attention at blooming time last year. Late. 
WEDGWOOD 6 for .60; 12 for 1.00; 100 for 6.00 
Not new but the first variety to bloom and a huge flower very

blue with yellow signal patch. 24 inches. 
WHITE PEARL 6 for 1.00; 12 for 1.75; 100 for 8.50
