MARINE WAVE (Schreiner 1941) VE. 26”.

MAROON DAMASK (Kleinsorge 1942) L. 40”. 
Handsome is this rich, broad, dark maroon self. Like a piece

grant; an Iris you would be pleased to have.

MARQUITA (Cayeux 1931) ML. 34”. 
An amoena type with luminous cream standards, “silken, 
hushed and chaste’, the last word in serene exquisiteness. 
The watermelon rose falls are veined candy striped rather 
than solidly colored. AM’36. 50c; 3 for $1.25 
MARY ELLEN (McKee 1947) L. 38”. 
A rich red bicolor, the falls are bright ox-blood red with 
more rose cast standards. In some ways it recalls the brilliancy 
of Mary Vernon done in redder tones. HM’47.

MARY VERNON (McKee 1942) M. 36”. 
Blended variegata of golden bronze flushed standards and

MASKED BALL (Buss 1949) E. 38”. 
‘The unexpected—the only Iris we list whose standards are 
deeper colored than the falls. In effect suggests a reverse 
of Wabash, the heavily patterned standards a deep blue pur- 
ple, the falls practically white with a small border of the 
coloring of the standards. A real novelty. HM’52. $5.00
