CRITERION. (G. Douglas, 1951). M. L. 
Mr. Douglas has been very successful in 
producing fine amoenas and this one lives 
up to the high standard he has set in se- 
lecting seedlings for introduction. The 
well domed standards are white, faintly 
veined with very pale blue; the semi-flar- 
ing falls are clear blue-violet with a dis- 
tinct edging of white in sharp contrast to 
the center of the falls. A prolific bloomer, 
it is the best amoena that Mr. Douglas has 
developed from the standpoint of breeding, 
for it sets seeds both ways. The firm sub- 
stanced flowers are carried on strong, 
especially well branched stalks. H. M., 
A. I. S., 1952. 38 inches. $12.00 
CUBAN CARNIVAL. (Sass Brothers, ’48). 
A seedling of Moonlit Sea and is in the

Sea is bluish-purple. A reddish-purple 
self with a heavy yellow flush through 
the center of the flower, extending into 
the standards as well as the falls. Yellow 
haft. Thirty-six inch branching stems. 
Medium sized flowers. $1.35

overlay of copper orange on falls.

snow white with brilliant blue border. 
Heavy substance and smooth finish. $7.50

marine-blue. H. M.,’48. A. M.,’51. $3.00 
DARK FIRE. (Tompkins, 1949). M-VL. 
38-40 in. Brilliant and imposing, this is a 
most difficult Iris to describe. A near self 
of black red, it has a slight infusion of 
brown and a glowing undertone of deep 
vermillion that gives it a fiery, smolder- 
ing appearance. The flowers have good 
form and substance; and are well placed 
on strong nicely branched stalks. $5.00 
DAWN REFLECTION. (Stevens, 1948). 
M. 38 in. A gigantic plicata of rich Ivory 
with a flush of lilac in the standards and

around the falls. $6.00 
DAYBREAK. A huge golden pink from 
Dr. Kleinsorge, received Award of Merit 
and deservedly so. 75¢e 
DEEP NIGHT. (Corey, 1947). M. An im- 
pressive flower of intense Mulberry pur- 
ple, the nearest color to it is Grape Juice 
(Maerz and Paul). The standards are 
broad, arched and well held. The semi- 
flaring falls have a velvety over-lay of 
more brilliant color, surrounding the dark 
gold beard, and the bronzy flush at the 
haft is in striking contrast to the rest of 
the flower. The large, fragrant blooms 
have good substance. H. M., A. I. S,, 
1948. $3.50 
DEEP VELVET. One of the richest and 
best in the blue-black class. 60c 
DESERT SONG. (Fay, 1946). M. 39 in.

ruffled petals. One of the best in this 
class and should be unexcelled as a par- 
ent. A. M. $1.50 
DINAH SHORE. Honey orange self. Long 
bloom season. Fine 50c 
DISTANCE. Entering the lists as one of 
the finest blues, this cool, translucent light 
blue with a silvery cast is reminiscent of 
the blue of winter twilight. The pure, un- 
marred flower gives a cool, serene effect. 
Nice sized blooms with an airy grace and 
limpid color that strikes a responsive note 
with those in search of real blue shades. 
A. M. 1949. $1.20
