Utah. A beautiful lemon-yellow, exquisitely over¬ 
laid pale amaranth pink. $1.00 each.

to prove a favorite; undoubtedly the finest of the 
Scottish creations. A dwarf growing variety, with 
large flowers on good stems, carried well above the 
foliage. Pale lemon yellow at center passing grad¬ 
ually to white at tips. First flowers are often full 
to the center; but as the season advances, they show 
that beautiful golden yellow center, characteristic 
of the Peony-flowered type. Its petals are very 
gracefully curved and twisted, adding greatly to its 
beauty. $1.00 each.

Seedling. When Mrs. Duke visited my gardens 
several years ago, she became fascinated with this

and without doubt the finest of its color. A very 
delicate lavender-white, blending to lemon-yellow 
at the center. $1.00 each. 
MINA SEABURY. Alexander’s New Peony- 
flowered Seedling. Named expressly for Mrs.

flower, with long curling petals, that is destined to 
become a great favorite. In color, a sulphur-yellow, 
very daintily overlaid mallow pink. $1.00 each.
