HARRIET THOREAU 
{INNOVATION (Hall 1945): M. 36 in. An unusual rose-trimmed 
plicata, that is brighter and more colorful than other pinkish 
plicatas. The flowers are large and of good form and substance. 
The long stems are strong and well branched and it is a good 
bloomer. Each 75c; 3 for $2.00 
INSPIRATION (Stevens 1937): M. 38 in. A new break in color— 
brilliant cerise-rose of large size and entirely different. It is 
practically a self, with a slight brownish warm cast on the haft. 
It is very rich and the petals appear to be curved. 
Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 
JAKE (Long-Sass 1943): M. 36 in. A very fine white-white, with 
just a trace of yellow at the center. If you are looking for an 
exceptional white Iris you will find it in this one. The flower 
is large, well formed, free blooming and truly a white-white. 
Each 75c; 3 for $2.00 
JANE PHILLIPS (Graves 1950): E.M. 34 in. A seedling of Helen 
McGregor. It is a new light blue but deeper in color than its 
famous parent. This is the truest blue that we grow. It has fine 
form and poise and is worthy in its own right. Illustrated. H.M. 
[S50c IMI, 1952. Each $3.00 
JASMINE (Grant 1944): M.L. 38 in. A yellow with a texture like 
a Gardenia. There is not even a vein or a variation of shading and 
the beard is almost the same color. The entire flower glitters and 
shines. H.M. in 1944. Each 75c; 3 for $2.00 
JASPER AGATE (Williams 1943) : M. 34 in. A very richly colored 
Iris of red, gold and copper tones with a finish like it had been 
polished. There is an underlying copper-pink tone to this flower 
that makes it a real Iris of beauty. It is really a gem. 
Each 75c; 3 for $2.00 
JONQUIL (Whiting 1943): M.L. 42 in. A serene and lovely light 
yellow that holds its own among others in its class. A very deli- 
cate edging of deeper yellow gives it charm and distinction. The 
flowers are large, wide petaled and of heavy substance. It is a 
little high branched and is more effective when planted behind 
lower blooming varieties. Each 75c; 3 for $2.00 
JOYANCE (Dykes 1929) : M.L. 49 in. Huge creamed toned flowers 
with a beautiful veining of gold at the throat. There is a heavy 
substance about this flower and the blooms are well formed and 
nicely spaced on the long, sturdy stems. Each 60c; 3 for $1.50 
JULIET (Kleinsorge 1946): M. 36 in. A beautiful blend of flame- 
copper with salmon shadings with the beard and central portion a 
mass of brilliant burnt orange. The standards of the large flowers 
are closed and the falls are broad and flaring. H.M. in 1947. 
Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 
KATE IZZARD (Meyer 1939): M. 30 in. Here is one of the early 
lilac-pinks. It is a low stemmed Iris with standards of tourmaline- 
pink and the falls are eupatorium-purple. The general effect is 
an unusual medium toned pink and it is a good Iris to plant in 
the foreground. Winner of the Silver Medal in England. 
Each 60c; 3 for $1.50 
KATHERINE FAY (Fay 1945): M. 36 in. A pure white Iris with 
tall tightly closed nicely ruffled standards and semi-flaring 
falls lightly ruffled. This is an all-white Iris with no yellow at 
the center. It has a cool starchy appearance and is slightly fra- 
grant. H.M. in 1945 and A.M. in 1947. Each 75c; 3 for $2.00 
LADY BOSCAWEN (Graves 1946): M. 40 in. This is the finest 
alabaster-white that we know of. The fluted standards are 
broad and a pure white and the falls are moulded and flaring, 
delightfully ruffled. The branching is magnificent and the sub- 
stance strong and firm. This excellent Iris has a poise all of its 
own. H.M. in 1946 and A.M. in 1948. Illustrated on page 27. 
Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50
