PIERRE MENARD 
PEACH MERINGUE (Schreiner 1951) E. 36”. 
An Iris with the luscious complexion of a copiously frosted 
lemon pie fresh from the oven, a melting golden tan with 
just a hint of pink. A prolific producer of large blooms. 
Because of its tangerine beard and undertone of pink, we 
are hopeful that this will prove a breeder and be the means 
of getting more size into the pinks. Pictured page 13.

PEG DABAGH (Craig 1948) E. 36”. 
One of the most striking of the Wm. Mohr hybrids. Clear 
deep blue violet flowers of smooth texture and characteristic 
Oncocyclus conformation of petals with distinct tracery of 
deeper venation characteristic of this group of hybrids. 
$6.00

PERMANENT WAVE (Williams 1948) ML. 40”. 
Imagine this flower—crisp cut, horizontal flaring falls, full and 
rounded petals with a jaunty whirl to the very edges. The 
entire bloom is colored sweet lavender shading to blue with 
golden brown hafts with a metallic lustre. $5.00 
PESHAWAR (Schreiner 1937) VE. 260 
Rich brown-purple veined and dotted a deeper shade. The 
charm of this flower is its dusting of silver-gray like a morn- 
ing dew. An ideal Iris for early bloom. 50c; 3 for $1.25 
PHALANX (Schreiner 1951) E. 36”. 
This is a novelty Iris of an unusual fuchsia hue. The falls 
have a sheen of metallic rose enhanced by a blue blaze in 
the center, reminding one of the lustre of a shining Christmas 
tree ornament. $3.00 
PIERRE MENARD (Faught 1948) M. 38”. * 
A magnificent new rich blue. The slightly open standards 
are a Hyacinth blue, the falls a Campanula violet with a 
canary yellow beard giving an effective foil. In effect, a rich 
deep blue. One of the finest new Iris. The engraver has 
caught only part of its charm. HM’48. AM’50.

PINAFORE LASS (F. Cook 1951) EM. Soe 
Snow Flurry imparts a vivacity of style to its progeny which 
sets them in a class apart. Pinafore Lass inherits this de- 
bonair, insouciant ruffling plus color effect equally unique, 
suggestive of the white blaze on Japanese Iris. From this 
glowing whiteness, like a deft water coloring, ever deepening 
tints of lavender-blue blend imperceptibly to the deeper scal- 
loped.margins. HM’52. $7.50

PINK CAMEO (Fay 1946) EM. 36”. * 
An exquisite fresh pure pink; one of the famous flamingo 
pink line. Outstanding qualities are the pinkness, smooth- 
ness, purity of tone and melting softness of color. The pointed 
buds, much deeper in color, are a picture in themselves, open- 
ing to give an entirely new conception of what a pink Iris 
can be. Beautiful translucent cameo-pink with a striking 
tangerine-orange beard, the “trade mar ” so typical of the 
new pink Iris. Excellent branching, 36 inch stems, good sub- 
stance, fine sized flowers lightly flaring and early blooming. 
One of the loveliest Iris we have offered. Illustrated page 40. 
HM’46. AM’48. $1.50; 3 for $3.75 
PINK FORMAL (Muhlestein 1949) M. 38”. * 
One of the most discussed of the “new pinks.” A large, some- 
what ruffled new pink, the color is a rich pink which gives 
great depth of color in the garden. An intense red tangerine 
beard. Extra heavy substance that holds in the hottest sun 
and a remarkably fine, strong stalk with widely spaced 
branches. Pictured page 19. HM’49. AM‘51. $10.00 
PINK LACE (Sass 1947) M. 36”. 
One of the “new pinks” from the Sasses, a descendant of 
Flora Zenor with the new shade of pink and accompanying 
tangerine beard. $1.25 
PINK PLUME (Schreiner 1951) M. 36”. * 
This self colored orchid pink might be described as a glorified 
Dreamcastle, being pinker, larger and lighter. A supremely 
beautiful Iris whose exquisite standards are domed with 
utmost circumspection, whose broad falls have a classic per- 
fection in form. A patrician beauty; chaste and serene. Un- 
surpassed in the carrying power of its limpid pink color. 
Pictured page 26. HM’52. $7.50 
PINK REFLECTION (Cook 1942) ML. 36”. 
A nymph-like, exquisite chamois-pink with a delicate, en- 
chanting quality. An underlay of creamy pink combined with 
the finest substance gives this Hower a crisp quality. Crisp 
and clear cut like a silk brocade. In color page 28. HM’42.
