THE ISLAND PEOXT GARDENS 
8.3 MONSIEUR DUPONT (Calot). White. An inn 
mense, perfectly formed cup-shaped flower, opening 
flat when in full bloom. Glistening ivory-white, cen¬ 
ter petals bordered with lively carmine. Golden sta¬ 
mens mingled with petals throughout the flowers. 
Deliciously fragrant. Erect, tall wiry stems. A 
wonderfully prolific and annual bloomer. Late mid¬ 
season, preceding Couronne d'Or. One of the very 
best whites. Each #1.00 
9.2 MONSIEUR JULES ELIE (Crousse). Pink. Very 
large, compact bomb type. Large guard petals sur¬ 
rounding a great dome of incurved petals. Glossy 
flesh pink shading to a deeper rose at the base, the 
entire bloom covered with a silvery sheen. Strong 
stems of medium height. Very fragrant. This, in 
our opinion, is the most beautiful of the bomb-shaped 
peonies. A long keeper. Each #1.00 
7.7 MONSIEUR KRELAGE (Crousse). Dark solferino 
red, with silver tips; slightly fragrant; large, com¬ 
pact; flat flower; a free bloomer and erect grower. 
A fine variety. Each #1.00 
8.8 MONSIEUR MARTIN CAHUZAC (Dessert). 
Rose. Semi-rose type. Midseason. Large, full, mas¬ 
sive, well formed flowers; perfect solid balls of deep 
maroon with garnet hues and brilliant luster. Good, 
erect habit, free bloomer. In great demand by those 
who are making collections to include all shades and 
want the extremes. Each #2.00 
9.3 MRS. EDWARD HARDING (Shaylor). The sen¬ 
sation of the National Peony Show held at Cleve¬ 
land, where it was exhibited as a seedling in 1917. 
For years each root sold for one hundred dollars, 
but as is always true, roots that multiply rapidly soon 
reach a more popular price for highly graded peonies. 
Blooms are pure white, frequently eight inches in 
diameter, have long feathery petals and are borne on 
tall strong stems. Fine for show peony as well as 
landscaping. Each #3.50 
8.8 MRS. M. P. CLOUGH (Shaylor). Large flowers of 
salmon pink borne on strong stems. The mature 
flower tends to produce a cylindrical effect. 
Each #2.50 
9.1 MYRTLE GENTRY (Brand). Late midseason. A 
very beautiful white, tinted with salmon. Well 
formed petals; very attractively formed. When seen 
at its best it is difficult to describe this variety with 
mere words. Each #15.00
