LATE SNOW (Douglas 1953) L. A very late flowering variety 
that blooms with Amandine and Extravaganza, thus prolong- 
ing the season of white iris in the garden. The firm substance 
blooms are pure white with just a suggestion of pale yellow in 
the beard. Tall, with wide branching it increases rapidly, and 
puts on a show in the late iris garden picture. 42 in. $12.50 
LELA DIXON (G. Douglas 1949) E. A seedling of Blue 
shimmer, it has lost the flexible stalk, but kept the color. The 
stalks have excellent branching. 36 in. $3.00 
OLYMPIAN (G. Douglas 1948) M. It is a bi-tone with per- 
fectly domed standards of buff lightly blended with rose. The 
| flaring and very broad falls are rosy brown with a deeper 
velvety flush of rose in the center. The flowers are very large of 
heavy thick substance, and have great weather resistance.

PAGAN GOLD (G. Douglas 1951) M. L. A very large self of 
rich clear yellow. Velvety texture. 8 to 10 flowers on well 
branched sturdy stalks. H. C., A.ILS. 1948. 40 in. $8.00 
PAGAN PRINCESS (G. Douglas 1948) M. The first deep 
rose with a tangerine beard. The full well formed flowers of 
rosy pink are in striking but pleasing contrast to the full tan- 
gerine beard. An iris of great individuality and a new color 
effect in the garden. H. M., A.I.S. 1948. 38 in. $2.50 
PAGAN ROYAL (G. Douglas 1951) M. A self with broad 
domed standards and large flaring rounded falls. The flower 
gives the effect of a glowing rich purple that is vivid and dif- 
ferent from other dark purple iris. H. C., A.I.S. 1948. H. M., 
A.LS. 1952. 40 in. $8.00 
PAGAN SUNSET (G. Douglas 1951) M. Golden orange, rose, 
apricot and copper are mingled to form a blending of the colors 
we see in a rosy sunset. 34 in. $6.00 
QUEEN’S TASTE (G. Douglas 1952) M. This excellent gar- 
den iris occurred as a by-product of amoena breeding. Its 
parentage is Criterion (Extravaganza X Wabash) X Olym- 
pian. One of its charms is its new and lovely combination of 
color. The well domed standards are lavender-pink with strong 
midrib. The semi-flaring falls are a rich tone of blended red. 
The color combination is most pleasing and the flowers have 
excellent carrying qualities in the garden. H. M., A.LS., 
1953. 38 in. $12.50 
SARAH GOODLOE (G. Douglas 1949) M. L. A long flower 
with arched and highly domed standards of deep maroon. The 
falls are semi-flaring of the same color as the standards. A very 
finished iris with excellent carrying quality in the garden.

SUE REVELL (Douglas 1953) M. L. A Flax Blue self with 
strong cupped standards, lightly ruffled, and so broad that they 
almost encircle the styles. The flaring falls are firmly textured 
and very wide at the hafts. Medium in height, and very free 
flowering. 30 in. $12.50 
TREASURE CHEST (Douglas 1953) M. L. The large saf- 
fron yellow blooms are semi-flaring and well proportioned with

exceptionally well branched stalks (4 branches and terminal) 
make this an ornate iris of great color value in the garden.
