FANTASY 
FANTASY (D. Hall, 1947) Each $5.00 
E.M. 30 in. Most attractive lovely tones of rose and orchid-lavender 
with a flush of golden yellow at the throat of the flower. The tangerine 
beard illuminates this fantasy of color. Not a tall Iris but when it 
bloomed in our garden, four blooms opened at one time on the well 
branched stalks. 
FALL DAYS (K. Smith, 1948) Each $3.00 
E. 36 in. An excellent orange-brown toned red. It vividly recalls the 
brilliant fall days; it is so brightly colored. 
FAR HILLS (J. Wills, 1949) Each $1.50 
M. 38 in. A large orchid-pink self. Deeper in color than Dreamcastle, 
it is larger and has no haft yenations to mar the smooth firm finish. 
The flowers have broad domed standards and full, slightly ruffled falls. 
FIESTA (White, 1936) Each 60¢ 
M. 33 in. Sparkling copper standards. Apricot-orange falls. A brilliant 
and colorful companion for blue. 
FIRECRACKER (Hall, 1943) Each $1.50 
M. 33 in. A glowing dark burgundy-red plicata with yellow trim. The 
flowers have good substance, ave well formed and are carried on fairly 
well branched stout stems. 
FIRE DANCE (Fay, 1947) Each $3.00 
M.L. 36 in. A much deeper, richer and taller Firecracker. Fire Dance is 
a burgundy-red plicata, both standards and falls heavily marked all 
over with dark wine-red; the ground color buff. Flowers are round and 
full; the falls flaring. 
FLAMELY (P. Cook. 1943) Each 60c, 3 for $1.50 
M. 33 in. Standards ochre-red to terra cotta; falls flaring garnet-brown; 
cadmium-yellow beard. Very nice. 
FLARE (Schreiner, 1951) Each $2.50 
M. 34 in. Here is a brilliant flash of color. The standards are orange- 
yellow; the smoothly lacquered falls are a rich red-brown like the 
finish of a horse chestnut when freshly picked and still retaining the 
oily, shiny lustre. 
FLORA CAMPBELL (Hill, 1940) Each 60c, 3 for $1.50 
E.M. 35 in. A vision of restless beauty radiates from this dramatic red 
Iris, really glowing with warm tones of red-brown and peach-red. Flow- 
ers are large and well formed. H.M., 1940. 
FLORADORA (D. Hall, 1947) Each $1.50 
M. 30 in. A medium toned flamingo-pink of medium size with good 
form and substance of well proportioned height foliage and stalks. A 
geranium-red beard makes a pronounced conirast greatly admired. 
There are no markings on haft of fall petals. 
FLORA WHITING (Whiting, 1953) Each $6.00 
M.L. 40 in, This tall blue Iris has great poise and charm. A true self 
of warm lobelia-blue with smooth hafts and white beards. Somewhat 
darker than Blue Rhythm, it is of distinctly different form, having 
widely flaring falls. They are only distantly related through a great 
grandparent—SENSATION. The flowers are large, the branching ex- 
cellent, the growth robust. Our daughter, Flora, chose it as her favorite 
among the seedlings a few years ago and the name was registered. 
EGeelo50: 
FLORA ZENOR (J. Sass, 1941) Each 60c, 3 for $1.50 
I.M. 40 in. Exotic in color is this distinctive Iris of pale cameo-pink 
shading into hafts of deeper rose and brilliantly intensified by a vivid 
ved beard. H.M., 1942. 
FORT TICONDEROGA (Smith, 1948) Each $4.00 
M.L. 36 in. It is on the glowing red side, with the result it seems to spit 
fire from every corner of its petals. The standards are between Mars- 
orange and burnt sienna and the falls are very velvety garnet-red. The 
haft is clean and the deep orange beard adds brilliance to the flower. 
FORTUNE (Kleinsorgze. 1941) Each 60c, 3 for $1.50 
M. 32 in. Old gold shadowed with rustic red brings out the rich 
Florentine coloring. Of large size and broadly spreading form.

sparkling finish.

color. Well branched. 
FRIEDA MOHR (Mohr, 1926) Each 60c, 3 for $1.50

ing color that has added charm to gardens for 28 years.

M.L. 34 in. A cold blue-white of lovely form and extra heavy substance. 
Flowers are large with domed, ruffled standards and widely flaring, 
heavily ruffled falls. New blooms are heavily tinted blue but clear to 
white when fully open and each flower seems to last for days. Flowers 
are so large they sometimes cause the stalks to lean slightly although 
they are strong and well branched. H.M., 1951. 
FUCHSIA (Hall, 1951) Each $6.00 
M. 32 in. Deeply colored raspberry-pink, or “fuchsia” as some have

what flaring falls slightly waved at the margins. H.M., 1953. 
GALA FINALE (DeForest. 1950) Each $7.50 
M.L. 39 in. The reddest “red and yellow” plicata we have seen to date.

brown area about the center. One of the richest and most handsome 
of all dark Irises.
