We have a ledger sheet for each variety 
of iris where we keep a performance rec- 
ord and a field count once or twice a year. 
After our field count at the end of the year 
we arrive at our price for the following 
year. If some varieties are running out our 
ears, our price will probably be cheaper 
than the other fellow’s. If we are somewhat 
short on an item we will probably be higher. 
The old law of supply and demand controls 
our prices. We have thousands of clumps 
of many varieties, even to the higher priced 
and newer kinds. 
GOLDEN RUSSET—(D. Hall 1946) M 
38”. An unusual flower because of its 
huge size. A golden russet color self, but 
lighter in color than the name implies.

GOLDEN SPANGLE — (Cassebeer 1944) 
Here is a sweet thing. Domed yellow 
standards, clear white falls with heavy 
gilding on border of rich yellow. A 
brighter Golden Fleece type. Most flori- 
ferous, very hardy, ten blooms on well 
branched stalks. Very showy with its

A tall, large, deep yellow self, slightly

orange beard. Excellent branching and 
has several flowers open at the same time. 
-You will note that we have lots of Golden 
this and Golden that, but on comparison 
they all have different characteristics, some 
are larger, some smaller, or different 
blooming times. All have some good 
features but some better than _ others.

GORGEOUS — M 40”. Several visitors 
_ asked, “What is that gorgeous Iris?” We 
replied “Gorgeous.” And it is all the 
name implies. It is a large rounded flower 
of Apricot and gold. Many mistake it 
_ for Tiffany. It blooms profusely and mul- 
tiplies rapidly. A grand Iris for so little

Another old stand-by that will still be

HALL SEEDLINGS—We have had three of 
Mr. Hall's seedlings growing in our gar- 
dens for the last 4 years. They have never 
been introduced by Mr. Hall or by our- 
selves. We have sold several each season 
to our garden visitors at blooming time 
at $5.00 each. These seedlings are worthy 
of a place in anyone’s garden and this 
year we are cataloging them.

40”. It is a flamingo pink with domed 
standards and nicely tailored falls; just as
