ISO-NO-KAMONE 
IMPORTED HIGO IRIS 
CHINKOTEI Each 3.00 
Ruffled silvery blue double marked with white streamers 
about halfway out on the falls. A different shade of blue and 
a beautiful flower up to 8 inches in diameter. Medium height 
and rather late. 
DAINAGON Each 3.00 
Striking doubled marbled variety quite distinct from Nishiki-gi. 
Ground color is light reddish purple with scattered white stip- 
pling. Smooth 8 inch flowers produced in profusion. 
FUJI-GASUMI (Mist on Mt. Fuji) Each 3.00 
A tall and queenly white but not a pure white. The huge 11 
inch flowers are lightly brushed heliotrope which fades as 
the flower ages. A strong grower. Double. 
FUJITO-NO-IORI Each 2.00 
A fair description of this giant might be given as a larger 
and finer edition of Lucy Marshall. The mammoth ruffled 
flowers appear very early on tall 5 foot stems. Color is soft blue 
violet with large white centers. Robust and a fast increaser. 
HAGURO-YAMA Each 3.00 
One of the last to bloom and a stunner. Massive 11 inch double 
blooms of deep purple with just a hint of red. Slightly ruffled 
and perfectly formed, every flower bears the stamp of quality. 
HANA-GATAMI Each 3.00 
About the lightest of the red bordered varieties and indeed 
an iris possessing much charm and refinement. Large semi- 
double. 
HINODE-DZURU (Crane at Sunrise) Each 3.00 
We consider this about the finest of the red singles. The giant 
drooping flowers are deep crimson with white centers and 
narrow white veins extending almost to the margins. Pure 
white styles tipped reddish purple. 
HISAKATA (Lofty Heaven) Each 3.00 
This massive midnight blue is unsurpassed in its color class. 
The bright yellow signals are bordered by brilliant indigo blue 
which shades out to the dominant bluish violet of deepest hue. 
The 10 to 11 inch flowers exhibit just about everything one 
could desire. Very late. Height 4/2 feet. Picture on page 10. 
ISO-NO-KAMONE Each 4.00 
Large pure white of incomparable beauty and informal out- 
line. Few others possess such ruffling as this rare double variety. 
Midseason. Height 32 feet. Only a few plants to spare. 
ITTEN-NO-KO Each 5.00 
The sharply defined color pattern distinguishes this beautiful 
semi-double variety. Deepest crimson with large white center 
and clear white veins radiating to the center of the falls. 
White standards and styles heavily flushed crimson. One of 
the most striking Higos. 
12 
KARAGINU (Imported Silk) Each 2.00 
Big 10-inch blooms of royal purple with yellow spears and in- 
conspicuous white veins radiating from centers. Very free 
flowering and early. Height 3 to 3% feet. 
KIRI-FURI-NO-TAKI (Waterfall Enveloped with Mist) Ea. 3.00 
Deepest pure violet variety with prominent yellow sepals. 
Rather late double. 
MIODOROKI (Three Surprises) Each 3.00 
A giant double which will produce flowers one foot in diameter 
under ideal conditions. Color is rich plum purple shading to 
violet at the center. Elegant ruffled flowers. Midseason. Height 
3% to 4 feet. 
MIYUKI-GURUMA (Imperial Carriage) Each 5.00 
Another immense intensely ruffled double of the red bordered 
sort. However, the border is so wide that we can hardly decide 
whether to class this one as a white with crimson border or a 
crimson with the white center. Always greatly admired. 
MURAKUMO (Dark Clouds) Each 3.00 
Velvety deep blue toned purple and one of the richest of all 
the dark varieties. Prominent gold spears. Very large single 
flowers of classic form. Midseason. Height 3 feet. 
NISHIKI-GI (Brocade ‘Trees) Each 3.00 
Most outstanding of the marbled varieties. The double flowers 
are pearl white heavily striated and mottled imperial purple 
and light blue. Deep purple styles. 10 inch bloom which is un- 
usually large for this type. Midseason. Height 3% feet. 
ROKKO-ARASHI (Tempest on Rokko Mountain) Each 5.00 
The blue counterpart of KURUMA-DOME. Clear white flow- 
ers with bluish purple margin. Crisp and flaring with a frilled 
edge this striking variety delights everyone. 
SANO-NO-WATARI (Ferry at Sano) Each 3.00 
Perhaps the biggest single of all. The massive white falls are 
dotted and splotched violet on the margins. The small stand- 
ards are edged purple and enclose pure white styles tipped 
bluish lavender. A fascinating giant of wavy and drooping 
form. Height 4 feet. Midseason. 
SHIMEI-NO-AKI (Autumn) Each 3.00 
Immense flat double flowers of light porcelain blue marked 
by wide white streamers. Low growing about 2 to 3 feet. Early 
to midseason. 
SUEHIRO Each 3.50 
Mammoth single of beautiful color and crepe like texture. 
Distinct shade of deep lavender tinted fawn that invariably 
attracts attention. Draping 10 inch flowers that display a pro- 
nounced crinkled surface on the falls. Very early and low 
growing. 21% to 3 ft. 
TEN-YU Each 3.50 
Beautiful rose purple with large white center and prominent 
orange spears. Surrounding streamers radiate almost to the 
margins which are delightfully frilled. 
TORIZAN Each 3.00 
Very bright red bordered semi-double of flaring form. One of 
the most beautiful of this color pattern. 
TOTENKO Each 3.50 
One of the most recent introductions from Japan that is quite 
sensational. The huge 10 inch flowers are near crimson with 
just a suggestion of fawn brown. Fully double blooms on tall 
well branched stems.
