GALATEA (Schreiner 1953) M. 36”. 
This Iris can best be visualized as a vast improvement on 
Melitza. The soft pinky-fawn tones are much clearer so the 
entire flower is very fresh looking. Blooms are 2 to 3 times 
as large. $4.00 
GALA FINALE (DeForest 1950) ML. 37”. 
Dramatically, this rich yellow ground plicata is heavily over- 
laid glowing Indian red, giving a spicy splash of gorgeous 
color. HM’52. $9.00 
GARDEN FLAME (H. Sass 1941) M. 34”. 
A rich rose with deeper tints of rose and brown in the center 
or perhaps more truly descriptive, a rosy garnet. A striking 
Iris with large, rounded flowers. Pictured page 31. HM’40. 
ae $1.00; 3 for $2.50 
GARDEN GLORY (Whiting 1943) ML. 33”. * 
A pure, enameled, rich Bordeaux red, or velvety ruby, one 
of the most stylish of the reds. Clear color, classic form and 
smooth finish. Distinctive because of its rich red, smooth 
haft and dark bronzy beard and enamel finish and flaring 
form. Not large or tall it is one of our favorites. HM’45. 
AM"47. $1.50; 3 for $3.75 
GARDEN MAGIC (Grinter 1936) ML. 38”. 
One of the fine reds. Flowers of smooth, velvety toned red 
on tall stems. Rich color, good substance and form. Flowers 
are full formed, hafts solidly colored red and the glossy velvety 
falls handsomely contrast with the rich beard. HM’37. 
75c; 3 for $2.00 
GAY BORDER (DeForest 1949) M. 40”. 
A new white ground plicata with maroon rose stripes and 
border. It gives the effect of red bordering on white; new and 
99 
distinct. Pictured on page 22. HM’49. $3.00; 3 for $7.50 
GAY ORCHID (Muhlestein 1949) EM. 36”. 
In our estimation this’ is about the prettiest of the smoky 
orchids. Reminds one of lavender taffeta. Flower is livened 
with a large tangerine beard. HM’49. $4.00 
Page 20 GOLDEN SUNSHINE 
GENERAL PATTON (Kleinsorge 1947) ML. 38”. 
An intense and brilliant copper brown self that glows and 
glistens with great elegance. The darker brown shading of 
this blend with its sparkling iridescence is quite novel. 
HM’47. $2.50; 3 for $6.25 
GIBSON GIRL (Gibson 1948) EM. 36”. 
This has been the most reliable Iris for fall bloom that we 
have grown. A plicata, it reminds one of Tiffany in coloring. 
Valuable because it reblooms. $2.00; 3 for $5.00 
GOLDBEATER (Kleinsorge 1944) M. 36”. 
Solidly colored chrome yellow without markings or blendings 
of any kind. Very large flowers on excellent branched stems. 
A charming effect is given to a clump of this Iris by the 
bright coloring the deep yellow buds make. Very fragrant. 
HM’45. AM’51. $1.00; 3 for $2.50 
GOLDEN BOW (Sass 1935) VE. 26”. 
A very early blooming Ivis of rich chrome yellow. One of 
the first Iris to bloom. 50c; 3 for $1.25 
GOLDEN EAGLE (Hall 1942) EM. 38”. 
Sparkling light, clear yellow with a satiny sheen. Unlike most 
yellows it is without a hint of orange or amber. Extremely 
large, 6 inch flowers, and a rapid grower. HM’42. 
75c; 3 for $2.00 
GOLDEN FLEECE (J. Sass 1940) ML. 36”. 
A beautiful lemon yellow with the creamy falls provocatively 
edged and banded limpid gold. It has a suggestion of ruffling 
and tall stems. HM’40. AM’42. 75c; 3 for $2.00 
GOLDEN RUSSET (D. Hall 1946) M. 38”. 
Enormous flowers! This Iris along with Wm. A. Setchell and 
a few others are the titans of the Iris world. Surprising size. 
Imagine a single Iris bloom measuring 7 inches high and 
9 inches across. ‘The buds of Golden Russet, most singular in 
appearance, measure 6 inches and look for all the world like 
a big cigar. The color is a light golden russet shade. Prob- 
ably the largest Iris we grow. HM’47. AM’52.
