Bearded Iris (Continued) 
Radiation (D. Hall 1948) A pleasing tone of orchid pink with a deep tangerine beard. 
Standards and falls same color with no veining on haft. Standards of the large 
flowers are domed and the falls are semi-flaring. Substance is good. $7.50 
Rajah Brooke (Norton 1945) This iris has a smoothness of finish that appeals to every 
iris lover. The standards are topaz bronze and the falls a rich mahogany brown. 
There is no veining to mar the beauty of this smoothly colored iris. $1.00 
Ranger (Kleinsorge 1943) A late blooming variety. Large, long flower of almost 
true crimson that is very brilliant in the garden. It is a self with strong, firm 
texture in both standards and falls. One of the last to bloom. Very floriferous, 
with strong stalks and fine branching habits. 36”. $1.50 
Rocket (Whiting 1945) Early midseason variety and one of the most discussed iris 
of recent years. Standards pure deep chrome and the falls are orange chrome, 
shaded a bit lighter at the edge. Flowers are large, broad petaled and of firm 
substance. Strong, well branched stalks. A clump of this variety has great 
carrying qualities in the garden. 38”. $1.50 
Rosedale (Hall 1952) Heavily ruffled salmon pink blend. Horizontal falls. Late 
bloomer. 30’’. $7.50 
Russet Wings (Wills 1946) Midseason. A heavy substanced flaring flower of smoothly 
blended gold, copper and apricot, giving the effect of a glowing russet self. 
Standards are beautifully formed and firmly held. Falls very flaring and de- 
lightfully ruffled. Firm substance and great lasting qualities. Very bright in 
color causing the flower to glow and sparkle even on cloudy days. 36”. $1.50 
Sable (Cook 1938) Uniform shade of deepest blue-black violet with blue beard. 
Sable has every attribute that a really good iris should possess — large size, tall 
stalk, heavy substance and a wonderfully lustrous sheen. Here is one you can’t 
go wrong on and is most highly recommended. 40”. 75¢ 
Samovar (D. Hall 1941) A very brilliant and colorful iris, quite different in color 
from any iris we have seen and is particularly desirable for landscape effect for 
that reason. The color is a coppery rose, with fair substance. A very vigorous 
grower, hardy and a free bloomer. 60c 
Sharkskin (G. Douglas 1942) A lovely tall white iris, with an almost velvet finish 
and firm substance. The domed standards are very broad and have a strong 
midrib. Falls are arched and flaring, with a pale glistening yellow flush deep 
in the throat. Very nicely branched, with large and well proportioned flowers. 
44”. 75¢ 
Sky Ranger (D. Hall 1948) A very tall, stately and heavily ruffled medium blue. 
Flowers are large, attractive in form and of good substance. Strong stems. 54”. 
$1.50 
Snow Flurry (Rees 1939) A beautiful ruffled white like an enveloping soft snow spray. 
The unopened buds are lightly tinted blue but the blossoms open a cool white. 
Large flowers, strong substance on tall stems. Short branching. Needs some 
protection in cold climates. Early midseason. 40”. $1.00 
Solid Mahogany (J. Sass 1944) One of the finest dark iris of recent years. Beautifully 
formed, and the color is aptly described by the name, No haft markings and a 
deep bronze-gold beard accent the richness of the plush-like falls. 36’. $1.00
