INTRODUCTORY

HEALTHY PLANTS. All plants have been thor¬

oughly inspected, and are sold by authorized permit from the ENTOMOLOGICAL COMMISSION of the State of Kansas.

TIME OF DELIVERY. Will begin filling orders June 20, or as soon thereafter as weather conditions permit. Years of experience and observation in growing iris in this locality, where we have a very hot August, a month that causes more discourage¬

ment to plant enthusiasts than all others, has giv¬

en positive proof that rhizomes set the latter part of June or as early in July as possible give best results. Knowing the exa.t happenings after sett¬

ing the rhizome explains this theory. In about four days tiny roots shoot out from the body of the rhi¬

zome, also from the old roots remaining on the rhi¬

zome at the time of planting. These new roots con¬

tinue to grow under favorable conditions, which usually last until our hot, dry season in August. The early growth made materially strengthens the new plants for this trying period. During the latter part of the season more root growth is made, also from the sides of the rhizome new shoots appear and the entire growth continues until freezing wea¬

ther, usually about first part of November. With ordinary garden care iris handled in this manner are almost sure to give one or more fine bloom stalks the following season. Delivery will be made to suit the customers convenience as nearly as pos¬

sible, and orders will be filled any time until freez¬

ing weather.

STOCK TRUE TO NAME. All varieties are guar¬

anteed true to name. No substitutions made unless a second choice is made. Continued success in the iris business depends on satisfied customers, and this is my constant aim. Each order receives the best rhizomes possible. All orders are filled by plants grown by me under the most exacting me¬

thods. Mistakes are reduced to a minimum, and should one occur will cheerfully and promptly ad¬

just same. In cases of mistake, purchase price will be refunded, or if customer prefers, will be ad¬

justed by supplying new stock of other varieties.

No further adjustment will be made. No adjustment of any nature will be made after the season fol¬

lowing the purchase of plants.

TERMS. Free delivery on orders of one dollar.

Smaller orders, 15c for mailing charges. A small

(6)

deposit will hold local orders placed at blooming time.

SERVICE. A personal service goes with each purchase. Am always glad to assist with advice as to arrangement of colors and heights, and will cheerfully help you solve your garden problems.

The garden is open Sundays during the blooming season to accomodate those who cannot come dur¬

ing the week. The most satisfactory way to make your selections is from blooming plants. Special prices will be quoted on large quantities, including the planting, where mass color arrangement is de¬

sired.

ZINC LABELS on No. 10 galvanized wire stake complete, 3 cents each. These labels are permanent and by far the most economical type of label I have ever used.

WRITE ME A LETTER. Tell me about your garden and your garden troubles too, if you have any. Tell me just what you think of the grade of rhizomes I am sending out and if you have been pleased. If you are I love to hear it, and if not I want to get at the bottom of the trouble. And friends these letters are my personal, private treasures and will not be published for advertising purposes.

New Faces

in the Iris Family

Many pleasant surprises await the 1934 visitors to the garden. Following are a few of the new var¬

ieties expected to bloom this year.

First will be mentioned GOLDILOCKS (Wav- man). A dulled tone of yellow sure to become a gen¬

eral favorite. Long blooming season combined with fine garden habits, making an especially beautiful clump. RED ROBE (Nichols). One of the real top- notch reds. Probably the best iris yet introduced by Mr. Nichols. RED DOMINION (Ayers) is worthy of all the favorable comment received the past two seasons. Much more red than Cardinal, and having the same velvety flaring falls so typical of the Dom¬

inion strain. DAZZLER (Williamson) is an improv¬

ed Seminole. ROB ROY (Kirkland) compares well with the best reds. It seems we never have too many of these in the garden. MOON MAGIC (Shull) is a fine large flower, well proportioned. An alluring creamy color too light to be called yellow, yet dis¬

tinctly not white. All of the Shull irises are quite hardy to cold, and adapt themselves readily to our tempermental climatic conditions. N A N O 0 K (Ayers) is a fine warm white of proven quality in the east. How I hope it will enjoy our local clim¬

ate that we may add variety in this color class. ZA- IIAROON (Dykes). While not as new as the others mentioned, this very fine blend has been so popu¬

lar that stock is still scarce and high priced. Not considered as rugged as one might hope. Two new Loomis irises should bloom, as plants made good growth. CHROMYLLA, a truly fine medium yel¬

low. Has size, shape and a clear rich color.

SPRING MAID while a quality iris, tall pink, is much too high in price compared with other good pink varieties such as Frieda Mohr, Rhem^auperle..

or Rosado. KLAMATH (Kleinsorge). A dark pur¬

ple with a bronze blend at throat, is outstanding for its size. Good form and substance. I hope to fill a real need for a good tall blue with BLUE BONNET (Egelberg). As this variety appears to have good rugged growing habits it surely will have a great future.

Jacob Sass Irises. These are the pride of the gar¬

den. All being thoroughly acclimated to this sec¬

tion of the country, we take no chances of failure when selecting from this fine list. I predict he will be winner of the much coveted Dykes Medal within the next two years. GOLDEN HELMET, the most brilliant variegata yet introduced. The rich red of the falls remains outstanding well into heavy dusk of late evem'ne. Flowers carried wed above the fol¬

iage on sturdy stems. QUIVERA, one of those blends popular with every one and imnossible to describe with any degree of accuracy. Lets call it a

(8)

soft light blend with pink predominating. Mr. Sass is naming one of his irises PINK OPAL. This is a sister seedling of Pink Satin, of very similar color and just a little taller. Seems to be even a bet¬

ter grower. What appears to be the successful achievement of many years of scientific hybr dizing, is represented in a huge flowered iris of deepest indigo purple. Standing on tall strong stems it im¬

mediately commands the attention of every visitor, being as it seems, as near perfection as one can im¬

agine. Size, shape and a color deep and rich, over¬

shadowing others in this color classification. A

JACOB SASS

On my visit to Mr. Sass’ garden last spring I snapped this picture of him. May 26. 1033. standing among a planting of his high grade white seedlings.

strong division planted last August gives promise of at least one fine bloom stalk. Mr. Sass told me he was naming this iris BLACK DOUGLAS. BAL- ROUDOR, BLUE TOPAZ, GRAY CLOUD and STORMY DAWN a new type of dwarfs introduced by him in 1933 are due to bloom this season. They are tiny gems of such unusual appearance they re¬

ceive much comment, and will become very pop¬

ular when generally known. These bloom with the

(9)

early dwarf (pumila) irises. WAR EAGLE must have a few words of comment. One can gain some¬

what of an idea the quality of this huge red var¬

iety when we say the demand during the 1933 sea¬

son far exceeded the supply at $20.00 per single rhizome. Easily twice the size of many of the so- called large varieties. If it has a fault would say it is too profuse a bioomer. How we wish more oi these large flowered varieties had this fault.

Mr. H. P. Sass, also producer of many fine mod¬

ern irises including Rameses, the Dykes Medal win¬

ner in 1932, is each year releasing new varieties of outstanding quality, including the greatest variety of fail blooming irises yet introduced by any one breeder. He is maintaining his high standard of quality in this strain, and is doing a real service foi future generations of iris fans. A very nice variety of these are being shown in my garden and as they all make excellent showing during the spring bloom visitors are invited to give special attention to this new strain of irises. One in particular I like very much, ULTRA. A dwarf, yet large enough both in plant and size of bloom to be very beautiful. The clear blue, being almost as true blue as is found in the delphiniums, is especially pleasing with the pink darwin tulips.

Included in this list will be found several moder¬

ately priced varieties not in last years list. These have been in the garden under test and have satis¬

factorily met general garden requirements neces¬

sary to recommend them to loca1 trade. Many are now under such test not included in the list. If a a particular variety is wanted, ask about it, more than likely it is growing right here in the garden.

ROCK PLANTS

SED11MS. We have in the Sedums, a specie of plants which fill a long-felt need. They retain most of their foliage during the winter months, and make one of the very first green spots when the spring

(27)

days begin to warm the cold ground. Growth con¬

tinues all summer in spite of the kind of weather or

•amount of care they receive, covering the bare spots in the rock garden, trailing over a rock ledge or nestling around the tall plants, everywhere in ap¬

parent, perfect contentment.

Plants are field grown, having been out-doors the entire winter. Have 18 varieties covering a wide range of habits as to general growth, from the very tiniest to the large, red ,flowered Spectabile.

From the main plant (or hen) often as many as 15 or more of the tiny rosettes (chicks) appear nest¬

led under the protecting outer petals, making a most interesting and desirable addition to rock gar¬

den. Only hardy varieties having withstood the past winter outdoors is offered.

Priced as to size 10c to 25c per single plant.

ing to a very high figure. There is no end of inter¬

est in watching the cactus bed bud and open into bloom. And such bright, gorgeous colors. From the size of a penny on to much larger sizes, many as large as tea cups, every blossom in itself a per¬

fect specimen of beauty.

Have on display several hundred fresh, healthy cacti in assorted sizes, covering a wide range of varieties.

Priced, as to size, 10c up.

DWARF IRIS, SEDUMS, SEMPERVIVUMS and CACTUS are especially recommended for rock gar¬
