LADY LOUISE (Graves 1947) : M.L. 44 in. Distinctive in both color 
and pattern, the large, broad, ruffled standards of colonial buff 
are roundly domed and firmly held by the very strong midrib 
The falls are iridescent white with a clear fluted border of 
colonial buff, widening each side of the orange beard, and blend- 
ing into the slightly deeper buff of the styles. The fascinating 
buds are an added attraction with their olive-yellow coloring 
contrasting strongly with the lime-green midrib, and showing 
plainly the ruffling of the flowers even in the folded buds. II- 
lustrated on cover. H.M. 1947. Each $2.00 
LADY MOHR (Salbach 1944): E. 36 in. A remarkable Mohr Iris 
with large beautifully rounded flowers. The standards are 
oyster-shell-white. The falls are frosted chartreuse-yellow with a 
red-violet area around the beard and radiating out in lines. 
The petals have some fluting. It is a color combination unknown 
in other Irises. H.M., 1944; A.M. in 1946. Illustrated on page 
23). Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 
LADY BOSCAWEN 
LAKE BREEZE (Fay 1945): M. 36 in. Heavily ruffled frosty pale 
blue of great charm. The falls are flaring and wide with no 
haft markings. It is a stately Iris with 9 to 11 blooms on each 
stalk. H.M. in 1945. Each 75c; 3 for $2.00 
LAKE GEORGE (Smith 1945) : M.L. 38 in. A trim flaring rich blue 
Iris shading darker in the haft. The standards are rounded and 
the falls slightly ruffled. The beard is light yellow with a tipped 
blue end. This Iris holds up well in the bright sun. H.M. in 
1944 and 1945. Each 75c; 3 for $2.00 
LAKE HURON (Sass 1942): M. 36 in. A very deep and intense 
blue, many shades darker than Great Lakes. When first opening 
the falls are almost blue-black but when fully open they are in- 
tense blue. The standards are also blue with a yellow beard. 
Each 60c; 3 for $1.50 
LAMPLIGHT (Schreiner 1944): M. 34 in. A very beautiful soft 
blend of tranquil flesh-buff self with the mellow glow of a lamp. 
This soft color is without veining and the flower possesses a great 
deal of style and harmony. We like this Iris very much. 
Each 75c; 3 for $2.00 
LANCASTER (Cook 1940): M. 36 in. A coppery old rose blend 
with a slight touch of gleaming yellow and very broad falls. This 
Iris is distinct from the ‘‘pink’’ or ‘‘rose’”’ Iris by its wide seg- 
ments, broad haft and heavy substance. We can recommend this. 
H.M. in 1941. Each 60c; 3 for $1.50 
LEILANI (Washington 1943): M. 35 in. This is a charming and 
entirely different orange-pink Iris. The standards of Venetian 
pink are well domed and firm. The falls are rounded, of the same 
color, with well defined line of deeper pink and have the added 
attraction of a peach-red beard. The smooth textured heavy sub- 
stanced flowers are well spaced on low, wide branched stalks. 
AM) in 1935. Each $3.00 
LIGHTS ON (Lapham 1946): E.M. 33 in. A fine, rich, glowing, 
clean cut red. It is considered to be one of the reddest reds with 
a smooth, uniform color throughout. The color tones are similar 
to Red Gleam and glow like live coals. Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 
LILAC LANE (Whiting 1947): M. 36 in. Not a pink Iris but a 
very delicate mauve color of heavy substance. The beard is a 
very pale yellow. Few modern Iris resemble this in color tone. 
It is a refined, slightly ruffled bloom of superb form. HM.., 
1948; A.M., 1951. Each $2.50 
LINDORA (Sass 1950): M. 38 in. A very unusual and distinctive 
Iris with standards of dark yellow and falls white with a border 
of dark yellow. It is a flower of rich substance, fine color, large 
and a good bloomer. Each $3.50 
L. MERTON GAGE (Lapham 1942): E.M. 40 in. Light raspberry- 
pink and cream-yellow. In effect a pink Iris with pale salmon

grower. H.M., 1942. Each $1.00; 3 for $2.50 
LORD DONGAN (Smith 1940): L. 36 in. A striking creation with 
broad standards of Chinese violet and extra heavy velvety falls

yellow beard. This is an imposing and very beautiful Iris. A.M., 
1940. Each 75c; 3 for $2.00 
LORD OF JUNE (Yeld 1932): M. 36 in. A large lavender-blue 
bicolor that is a fine Iris to use in contrast with reds and

flare. This is a pleasing Iris. Each 60c; 3 for $1.50 
LORI MAY (DeForest 1941): M. 33 in. Harmonious daphne-pink;
