ONCOBREDS 
We are indeed indebted to Mr. C. C. White, of Redlands, California, whose persistence 
and untiring efforts have given us this unusually beautiful group of iris. All of them will 
grow well in California and in mild climates, and many have proven absolutely hardy in 
cold sections. Give full sun, good drainage, and the less water in summer the better.

rangements. 12 to 15 in. 75¢ 
Sardis II is just like Sardis I except that 
the veining is much more pronounced and 
darker in color. It depends on whether you

SHERIFFA (C. G. White) 
A tall, iridescent purple which is outstand- 
ing. The petals are darker around the edges 
and burnished with a metallic lighter shade

note. 2 ft. Early. 75¢c

warm tan. Nicely formed large flowers on sturdy stalks. 3 ft. 
Hardy. $1.75 
CAPITOLA (Reinelt)—A.M., A.LS. °50 
Big globular flower in soft shades of red violet. Standard 
breeder. 28 in. $1.00 
ENCHANTED (C. G. White) 
Light violet heavily veined darker. Dark signal patch. 75c 
JOPPA PARROT (C. G. White) 
A strange medley of many colors. The standards are pale violet 
heavily veined in purple. The falls are honey-beige, heavily 
streaked with almost every color in the spectrum. The streaks 
do not melt into a blend, but stand out in a strange manner. The 
standards are completely closed and the broad falls curve under, 
forming a complete globe. Luxurious brown beard and deep sig- 
nal patch. We are sorry, but it apparently is not too hardy. $s An 
KISH (C. G. White) 
A beautiful iris, background almost white, but so heavily veined 
and dotted with violet as to appear almost mauve. Deep marcon 
signal patch adds charm. 11 ft. 75¢ 
MOZO (C. G. White) 
Creamy white, heavily veined in bronze red. Hardy. 2% ft. 75c¢ 
MUSTAPHA (C. G. White)

Cream yellow, sprinkled with minute maroon dots. Falls flare. 
Hardy. 2 ft. $1.50 
OYEZ (C. G. White) ; vr 
No other oncobred is quite so bizarre—the ground color is off- 
white, but overall there is a magic-like veining in bold red-purple. 
The falls are firm and flaring. Hardy. $2.00 
PESHAWAR (Schreiner) 
A very richly colored deep red flower. 14 in. Hardy. 75¢ 
PRESENT (C. G. White) ; : 
An exquisite flower of firm substance. The background is a deli-

This and Capitola have been the progenitors of the great Mohr 
family. A great iris. $1.00 
YARKAND (C. G. White) 
A strangely beautiful oncobred, carrying much of true onco 
in its makeup. A medley of violets, with an almost black beard 
and signal patch. The flower is almost a complete globe, as the

HARDY, so even you in cold locations can grow this lovely 
flower in your gardens. 2 ft. 75c 
YOUNG APRIL (C. G. White) 
As a cut flower it is indeed a gem. The standards are a bright 
violet rather distinctly veined and the falls are deeper violet, 
veined with blackish purple, flushed with brown. An early 
bloomer. 1 ft. 75c 
YUSSUF (C. G. White) 
Odd, but interesting, is this large flowered variety of rose pur- 
ple, heavily splashed with straw yellow. 30 inches. 75c
