ITASCA TEN SPOT Collection Any 10 for *10 Dore Aline Amenti Autumn Frost Ballet Girl Burning Bronze California Gold El Tovar Golden Helmet Happy Days Junaluska Mohrson Robert Vision Itasca Lady Paramount Wotan Ukiah ALL 18 of the above, PLUS Copper Lustre, for $20.00 (Total catalog value, $32) MOROCCO ROSE Each $10.00 Very large rose-pink self, soft yellow glow at the heart. A seedling produced by Dr. Loomis of Colorado Springs and placed on the market by Quality Gar- dens of Freeport, Illinois, where it was a great favor- ite of the many iris judges converging there for the annual iris show. Our stock is very limited. MOUNTAIN SNOW Each $12.50 Outstanding new white giant from New England, introduced by the Kelloggs in 1937. Awarded an H. M. by the iris society in 1936 as a seedling, we were much taken with it when we viewed it blooming in its home garden. The form is perfect, with very broad falls and extra heavy substance. A cool white, as the name implies, with a very faint suggestion of blue shadow on the falls. MRS. SILAS WATERS Each $5.00 Huge primrose yellow self, standards and falls practically the same shade, with some yellow mark- ings on a cream haft. One of Dr. Ayres' newest re- leases. Mrs. Emigholz, the introducer, says that this iris will succeed where Lady Paramount does not, giving almost an identical garden effect. Widely branching stems, three feet and over in height. MRS. WILLARD JACQUES Each $5.00 A more deeply colored flower than Noweta, which it resembles in type. It has, however, an overtone of buffy apricot, setting it apart from other pinks. This new introduction from Jacob Sass was highly regard- ed by critics who saw it last spring, not only because of its new color, but also for its ruffling, abundance of flowers, and wonderful garden value. NARAIN Each $2.50; 3 for $8.00 A brand new blue introduced by Quality Gardens in 1936. Has a silky texture, cream throat, and blue beard tipped soft yellow. NARANJA Each $4.00; 3 for $ 10.00 The leading introduction from Sidney Mitchell during the past few seasons, and the first iris of huge size with a definite orange tone. Taller even than Happy Days, and practically as large. The falls are ochraceous orange, with a yellow heart, and the standards are bright empire yellow, the beard orange- yellow. 30
