PRISCILLA (Whiting 1942) : M. 34 in. A pure white Iris of modest 
size and height that owes its popularity to its purity and pleas- 
ing rounded form. Cool, clear of all markings or color in the 
haft or beard, it is known as the really white Iris. 
Each 75c; 3 for $2.00 
PURISSIMA (Mohr-Mitchell 1937): M. 50 in. This glorious Iris is 
one of the most perfect, clear whites that we know of. The large 
clear white blossoms are beautifully poised on tall, well branched 
stems. May be a little tender where winters are extremely cold 
but can be successfully grown in cold climates if given a little 
winter protection. Each 60c; 3 for $1.50 
RADIANT (Salbach 1936) : M. 30 in. Richly colored and striking- 
ly brilliant, this sensational Iris commands immediate attention 
of visitors to our gardens. The standards are of burnished orange 
and the falls a glowing coppery red, producing a richness and 
brilliance of color seldom seen in an Iris. Medium size blooms of 
fine form, and are freely produced on low branching stems. 
Each 60c; 3 for $1.50 
RADIATION (Hall 1948) : E.M. 33 in. Beautiful orchid-pink with 
falls and standards of the same color. The blooms art large with 
a deep tangerine beard and a burnt orange glow at the heart. 
The standards are domed and the falls are semi-flaring and 
wide. One of Hall’s best. H.M. in 1948; A.M. in 1950. 
Each $7.50 
RAEJEAN (Whiting 1940): L. 38 in. A very large two toned yel- 
low of rich warm coloring. The closely domed standards are deep 
yellow with the falls being somewhat lighter with a deep yellow 
border. This glistening flower has very fine substance and high 
branching, thus making it an excellent backqround flower. 
H.M. in 1941. Each 60c; 3 for $1.50 
RAINBOW ROOM (Sass 1946): M. 36 in. The many shadings of 
apricot and orange-buff form the background, which accents the 
points of rich apricot-buff shadings. It appears to have all the 
colors of the rainbow. The standards are antimony-yellow and 
the falls are bordered with the same yellow, merging into lilac 
towards the center with a metallic blotch at the end of the 
bright yellow beard. H.C., 1945; H.M., 1947. Each $3.00
