PEARL RUGGLES. 1920 introduction and one of the very best. Carmine 
rose suffused on a white ground shading to a light pink at the outer 
edges of the petals. We are pleased with its bright and pretty flowers 
standing high out of the bushes, and it is indispensable in the peony 
competition class, as it has immense size, perfect formation and the 
necessary tiny petals clustered around the center. Tubers $2.50, plants 
$1.25. 
PEG O' ME HEART. Old rose with slight shading to golden yellow. A 
beautiful variety, and when not disbudded makes a most beautiful, at- 
tractive garden plant. $3.00. 
PRIDE OF PORTLAND. A magnificent variety that is worthy of a place 
in the most up to date collection, where something gorgeous is desired. 
Quite similar to the ever popular "Geisha" in color, but the yellow h 
brighter and the red is of a richer shade. It is more double than that 
old favorite, in fact, some blooms are almost of the decorative type. 
Without a doubt one of the best we have ever grown. $3.00. 
QUEEN ESTHER. Beautiful deep red of enormous size, good substance and 
long, strong stems. Stock limited. $1.00. 
RUTH PHILLIPS. Sulphur yellow flower of immense size on fine stems, 
very attractive. $5,00.

which hold the flower out boldly; color is a fine pale mahogany. $3.00. 
VIOLET BEAUTY. A most wonderful exhibition flower of a shade quite 
difficult to describe accurately. Very pleasing violet-purple, suffused with 
claret and cerise. Each petal has the appearance of being outlined with 
silver. The flowers are from 7 to 9inches in diameter, of the full-petaled 
peony-flowered type, with broad wavy petals; the center is almost hidden 
by small petals that curl and twist, making a flower of very artistic 
formation. $3.00.
