 season Peony with large, globular, 

 flesh white blooms $0 43 $40 00 



Edulis Superba (7.6). This is the only 

 Peony offered that is rated under 8, 

 and there is no reason why it should 

 carry this low rating as it is really a 

 good Peony — early, free-flowering, and 

 a fine cutflower in the dark pink

 red Peony. Probably the largest seller

Karl Rosenfield (8.8). Tall; mid-season. 

 Globular semi-Rose type flowers of 

 bright crimson 33 30 00

 with slight flecks of crimson. Very 

 fragrant and considered one of the 

 very best white Peonies. Late mid- 

 season 63 60 00 



Longfellow (9.0). One of the most pop- 

 lar red varieties because of its dis- 

 tinct fadeless color and general de- 

 pendability both for cutting and gar- 

 den decoration. Comes into bloom 

 early midseason. Excellent foliage 

 and long stiff stems 63 60 00 



"Mary Brand (8.7). Dark clear crimson. 

 A very free-flowering Peony and where 

 quantities of red flowers are wanted 

 this is an excellent one to handle. 

 Mid-season 28 25 00 



DXons. Jules Elie (9.3). A large early- 

 flowering Peony. One of the very best 

 for cutting. Pale lilac-rose with an 

 attractive silvery reflex 33 30 00

 pink, with rather flat blooms. Con- 

 sidered one of the very best of the 

 cutflower varieties. Free-flowering. 

 Blooms in mid-season 33 30 00 



Sarah Bernhardt (9.0). Very large, late 

 rose-pink flowers. One of the very 

 best for exhibition and cutting on 

 account of its perfectly formed flow- 

 ers and graceful stems. Blooms very 

 freely 33 30 00 



Walter Faxon (9.3.) Coral-pink- — the 

 most distinctive coloring of all 

 Peonies. It is free-flowering and when 

 picked in the bud and allowed to open 

 inside its beauty is very striking. 

 However, it fades quickly in sunlight 

 and should be picked in the bud. Mid- 

 season 63 60 00
