1—Monsieur Dupont. 
2—Albert Crousse. 
101—MADAME DUCEL (Mechin, 1880.) Bomb 
type; midseason. A very large, wonderfully 
built flower; broad guard petals: center bomb 
shaped like a huge ball; very double and com- 
pact. The closely set central petals are beau- 
tifully incurved as in a Chrysanthemum. The 
whole flower, both guards and bomb, a solid 
color of silvery-lilac-pink or mauve rose, very 
distinct and floriferous; holds its form and 
color to the end. Indispensable. Stands among 
the very first Peonies. 
32—MADAME FOREL (Crousse, 1881.) Rose 
type; late midseason. Enormous, very full 
double bloom; color glossy, deep pink with a 
silvery reflex; known as the ‘Princess of Pink 
Peonies,”’ a title it well deserves and proudly 
carries. Extra fine. 
7—MADAME EMILE GALLE (Crousse, 1881.) 
Rose type; late midseason. Large, double, cup- 
shaped, imbricated flowers; color delicate sea- 
shell-pink with touches of heliotrope and lav- 
ender. This is probably the most ethereally 
beautiful of all Peonies; inexpressibly grand. 
Not a new Peony, but scarce and rare. Quite 
a number of visitors to our field fairly rave 
over the great beauty of this flower.

3—Marie Lemoine. 
4—Monsieur Jules Elie. 
274—MADAME FOULD (Crousse, 18938.) Rose 
type; very late. <A large, full flower, outer 
petals milk-white, center lilac-white, very 
slightly flecked with crimson. Fragrant. 
Blooms very late—in fact, it is the last white 
to bloom. An extra good sort. 
139—MADAME EMILE LEMOINE (Lemoine, 
1899.) Semi-rose type; midseason. M. Lemoine 
thought enough of this Peony to honor it with 
his wife’s name. Tall, strong, vigorous grow- 
er. Enormous buds opening into extra large 
imbricated round flowers that completely hide 
the bush, each petal overlapping the other, 
giving the whole flower a very unusually dis- 
tinctive, even shape. Color on first opening 
glossy-white, overlaid with a sheen of tender 
satiny-pink, covered with minute lilac dots. 
When fully blown, pure white. A variety you 
want to linger with; strong grower and free 
bloomer; rare and beautiful. Easily scores 
the six points of excellence. 
297—MADAME EMILE DUPRAZ (Riviere, 1911.) 
Very large cup-shaped flower of soft carmine 
rose; interior of the flower darker, with soft 
velvety tints and _ silvery reflex; beautiful 
shade; blooms in clusters.
