with yellow plicating all round the edges. Vigorous and florifer- 
ous. Reblooms. $1.50

SEA LARK (Muhlestein)—H.M., A.I.S. 47

tensifies to a deep purple central area in both falls and standards 
resulting in flower of singular beauty. $1.0

A tall, stately and heavily ruffled medium blue. 31% ft. $1.00

SPRING SUNSHINE (Milliken) 
This light yellow iris has the largest flowers of any variety 
which we have grown but they are shapely and of good substance. 
The color is smooth and evenly distributed on both standards and 
falls. The stalks are especially strong and very well branched so 
that the flowers do not crowd. The plant is very vigorous, but 
must have winter protection in cold sections. 4 to 5 ft. $1.25 
SPRINGTIME MADONNA (Milliken) 
A symphony of cream and gold. Standards very pale creamy 
yellow with a gold edging. The falls are beautifully ruffled and 
frilled and are pale yellow which turns to bright gold at the 
hafts giving the flower the appearance of a spot-light having been 
turned on the haft section. Fragrant. Illustrated on back Gs

a soft to a more intense cream at the edges and a pearly blue 
flush in the falls. A very popular variety, in great demand. $4.00 
STEP UP (Muhlestein) 
The coloring of this new amoena is especially clean. The stand- 
ards are white as white can be, while the falls are clear violet blue 
that almost seems to be dusted over a white ground. Really a 
“step up” in amoena breeding. 36 in. $5.00

Something different! A golden fancy that looks like an omelet 
decorated with bright red paprika for color accent. 38 in. $6.00 
TANGIER (Whiting) 
The well-shaped standards are a rich deep yellow, the falls are 
the color of the deepest tone in Rocket, giving an iris of depth 
and richness seldom seen. The falls ripple and the color holds 
much better than in Rocket, one of its parents. Substance excel- 
lent. 3 ft. $5.00 
TECHNICOLOR (Whiting)—H.M., A.I.S. *50 ; 
Brilliant red-brown, the color carries exceedingly well, giving 
the effect of bright red at a short distance. Resembles Garden 
Glory, one of its well-known parents, in form and growing habits.

THOTMES III (Kleinsorge)—A.M., A.I.S. 753 ;

brown color. 24% to 3 ft. $1.50 
CHERIE 
TOURNAMENT QUEEN (Milliken) 
Year after year Tournament Queen continues to be top favorite 
here in many gardens. An enchanting shade of fuchsia, with falls 
slightly darker than the standards. The blossoms are crisp, look- 
ing almost as though they were the work of a master glass-blower. 
Here in California we are blessed with a full blooming season from 
this lovely iris every winter, as well as the regular season for iris. 
Perfectly hardy everywhere, and becoming increasingly popular. 
3 ft. See color illustration on back cover. $1.50 
TRAIL BLAZER (Milliken) 
We are proud of Trail Blazer. As the name implies, it is a fiery 
red-mulberry purple, shot with blue at the tip of the beard which 
spreads over the central portion of the falls creating a startlingly 
brilliant color effect. A touch of deep ruby red flanks the cinna- 
mon beard and adds depth and richness to the flower. The stand- 
ards arch and are closed, while the falls are shaggy and slightly 
ruffled. A most interesting flower. 314 to 4 feet. $4.50
