RUSSET WINGS (Wills 1946) M. 36”. 
A melodious and smooth combination of copper and apri- 
cot with a russet tone playing through all the colors. The

mony. Pictured in color page 35. HM’46. AM’52. 
$2.00; 3 for $5.00

a lustrous sheen. HM’37. AM’40. 75c; 3 for $2.00 
SALAMONIE (Cook 1946) EM. 36”.

flection it is a pleasant combination. $4.00

SAVAGE (Craig 1949) M. 34”.

flower hard to describe. HM’51. $7.50 
SEA LARK (Muhlestein 1946) M. 36”. 
An unusual slate blue with a flush of purple toward the

is highly original. An Iris unlike any other. HM’47. $1.50 
SEARCHLIGHT (Stevens 1947) EM. 40”. 
An excellently formed rich pure gold. The uniformity of 
coloring is instantly apparent due to the complete absence

SHARKSKIN (Douglas 1942) M. 38”. 
Silken finished pure white, clear haft, good substance, four 
well spaced branches. This very fine white with leather-like 
substance, large size and purity of color is a wonderfully satis- 
factory garden Iris. Nicely tailored flowers, it ranks among 
the finer white Iris. HM’43. AM’46. 75c; 3 for $2.00 
SNOW CARNIVAL (Graves 1942) M. 38”. 
This outstanding white is one of the white masterpieces. 
Possessing balance and beauty, it is a splendid striking cold 
white whose frilled form, large flowers and well branched 
stems combine to give us a standout white Iris. HM’42. 
AM’44, $1.00; 3 for $2.50 
SNOW CRYSTAL (Wills 1947) M. 35”. 
If you are looking for a plicata that has a small amount of 
marking this is the Iris. The finely formed flowers are crys- 
talline white with just a dash of blue marking toward the 
center third of each petal. Very blue crests and style arms. 
HM’47. $1.50; 3 for $3.75 
SNOW FLURRY (Rees 1939) EM. 40”. 
A beautiful, ruffled blue white like an enveloping soft snow 
spray. The unopened buds are lightly tinted blue but the 
blossoms open a cool white. Strongly substanced on tall stems, 
short branching. It is slightly tender. HM’39. AM’41. 
$1.00; 3 for $2.50 
SNOW VELVET (H. Sass 1942) M. 38”. 
An excellent, very velvety textured white Iris with a gilding 
of gold in the throat. Gardenia-like texture withstands rain, 
sun and wind well. HM’42. 75c: 3 for $2.00 
SOLID MAHOGANY (J. Sass 1944) M. 38”. 
Mahogany red, the smoothest deep flowered grand red. Large 
flowers of good substance. Finely formed, smoothly finished 
and heavily textured, fine branching. Pictured on page 29. 
HM’44, AM’47. $1.00; 3 for $2.50 
SPANISH LADY (Stevens 1948) M. 38”. 
A tall and stately beauty whose lovely form is decked in rich 
brown velvet and taffeta. The crisp brown standards are a 
lighter brown than the falls, whose rich deep velvetiness is 
almost a walnut shade. $5.00 
SPANISH PEAKS (Loomis 1947) ML. 38”. * 
A flower from Colorado and like its snow capped peaks this 
Iris is as we would expect it—it is completely white, the 
flower, the throat, the haft, the beard, the style arms—all 
white. Very nicely formed blooms, broad petaled, heavily sub- 
stanced and fine textured. One of the best white creations. 
HM’48. AM’50. $4.00 
SPINDRIFT (Loomis 1944) ML. 36”. 
A translucent, delicate seashell or coral-pink. Its crowning 
glory, a deep tangerine orange beard is boldly accented 
against this lovely color. Its wax-like substance holds the 
delicate coloring very well and flowers take the hottest sun 
without fading. Very popular. Illustrated page 30. 
$1.00; 3 for $2.50 
SPOTLIGHT (Schreiner 1952) ML. 40”. 
The engraver stole our thunder in this magnificent new 
golden Iris so that scarcely a word of description seems neces- 
sary. For a really scintillating highlight in your garden, use 
Spotlight! Jaunty, regal, large, copiously formed and superbly 
branched, it definitely supersedes the much smaller Ola Kala 
and other gold toned Iris of our acquaintance except Royal 
Sovereign, from which it differs noticeably in form. A glint 
of white below the beard forms an attractive identifying mark,
