BRAND'S BEAUTIFUL PEONIES 
5 
WHITE PEONIES 
MRS. HARRIET GENTRY (A. M. Brand 1925). White. 
One of the most refined flowers in the list. Another 
white of most perfect rose type. Petals very large, of 
the purest glistening white, arranged in wonderful 
perfection. Comparable to a perfect 
specimen of that wonderful flower, Mi- 
rielle. Mrs. Harriet Gentry invariably 
blooms well with flowers of utmost 
beauty, while Mirielle gives perfect 
bloom so seldom that we do not recom¬ 
mend it. 
A Brand Division $4.00. 
MME. DE VERNEVILLE (Crousse). 7.9. 
White. We feel this variety is much 
underrated. Flower large, very full, 
bomb type. Guard petals sulphur- 
white; center petals rose-white with 
carmine touches. Good substance. 
Stems long and strong. An ideal cut 
flower. Pleasing fragrance. Comes in¬ 
to bloom after Festiva Maxima, and 
we regard it superior in beauty. 
A Brand Division $1.00. 
MME. EMILE LEMOINE (Lemoine). 8.9. 
White. A rare, beautiful Peony; strong grower, free 
bloomer. Flowers very large, uniform in shape and 
size. Plant rather tall with strong, erect stems. Bloom 
is very perfect in form, with large, rounded roselike 
petals of a tender glossy white, overlaid with a sheen 
of delicate satiny pink, covered with tiny dots of 
deeper pink. Petals of great substance. 
A Brand Division $1.00. 
MONSIEUR DUPONT (Calot). 8.3. One of the old stand¬ 
ard Peonies, always desirable. A glistening ivory 
white, with center petals bordered with carmine. Gold¬ 
en stamens mingled with the petals throughout the 
flower. Deliciously fragrant, wonderfully prolific, a 
consistent bloomer. Appears just before Couronne d’Or.

MRS. SHAYLOR PORCE (Shaylor). 9.0. A very large, 
midseason, creamy white with a faint glow of pale 
lemon at base of petals. In form much like Jubilee and 
La Rosiere. Petals usually edged crimson. 
A Brand Division $2.50. 
REV. H. TRAGITT (A. M. Brand 1928). 
White. Very large, of true rose type. 
Great blooms of the most perfect form 
resemble large balls of snow. The 
dwarf plants with strong stems hold 
the great white blooms erect. Very 
sturdy, even growth—planted in rows, 
they present a remarkable sight when 
in bloom. So profuse, the blooms cover 
the whole plant with a solid mass of 
white. Usually pure white, yet occa¬ 
sionally a faint trace of red shows on 
an inner petal. Globular in form; great 
broad snow-white petals of great sub¬ 
stance. This variety resembles Le 
Cygne but it is late while Le Cygne 
is early. 
A Brand Division $4.00. 
SOLANGE (Lemoine). 9.7. This is a va¬ 
riety that is hard to classify. It might be classed with 
the light pinks, but it is neither a white nor a pink, 
but a suffusion of buff and pale salmon-pink. A late 
variety with tight buds that sometimes fail to open 
When well grown this variety has perfect form and 
unusual coloring. A Brand Division $2.50. 
SUSAN B. WHITE (A. M. Brand 1933). White. A pure 
white of very fine form and large size. Plant tall, 
luxuriant dark green foliage. Individual blooms very 
large; petals very long and narrow, form a great com¬ 
pact dome-shaped flower with large guards drooping 
gracefully away from the balance of the flower. Pure 
white, tinted heavily cream, with green showing at 
base of petals. 
A Brand Division $4.00.

YELLOW PEONIES 
There are few yellow Peonies that have been introduced to date. We hope that from our seedling Peonies we 
may be able to add to this list in the future. 
The varieties we list under this heading are not pure yellows but yellow predominates. 
FANNY CROSBY (Brand). 7.7. An early yellow Peony with 
pink guard petals that is growing in favor more each 
year as it becomes better known. The plant is strong, 
thrifty, and very floriferous. The side buds come into 
bloom with the main flower and if left on the plant they 
make a wonderful showing. 
A Brand Division $1.50. 
GOLDEN DAWN (Gumm). 8.6. Anemone type; midseason. 
Yellowish center with broad guard petals of ivory-white. 
Stock scarce. 
A Brand Division $3.00. 
LAURA DESSERT (Dessert). 8.8. Yellow. This Peony, 
Primevere and Fanny Crosby, are the three finest yellow 
Peonies. The flower is round, of rose type. Guard petals 
creamy white, enclosing a domelike center of pure canary- 
yellow. Like Fanny Crosby, the plant is an upright 
grower, holding blossoms erect for good landscape value. 
Like all yellows, it must be developed inside away from 
the sun to preserve its color. Early midseason. 
A Brand Division $2.00. 
FHILOMEIiE (Calot). 7.7. Rose. Medium size. Flat crown 
type. Guards bright violet-rose; anemone center of amber- 
yellow petals, changing to cream. As flower develops, a 
crown of bright rose appears in the center. Midseason. 
A strong, free bloomer, very desirable with much deep 
yellow in make-up. A very striking landscape sort. 
A Brand Division $1.00. 
PRIMEVERE (Lemoine). 8.6. A fine yellow Peony. Guard 
petals creamy white, enclosing a central ball of sulphur- 
yellow. If cut in the bud, as it begins to open, so the 
flower may develop away from the sun, it will hold a 
clear yellow color; very beautiful. 
A Brand Division $1.50.

The greatest place to make a suitable selection of Peonies 
for a planting is from a field of growing Peonies. Here you 
see not only the flower, but you see the thriftiness of the 
plant, and from the flowers you can judge the blooming 
qualities. 
If you cannot visit a planting, we realize fully how diffi¬ 
cult it must be to make a selection by reading descriptions. 
Let us help you. Tell us how many Peonies you wish to 
plant; how you wish them divided according to color; what 
season of blooming you desire; how much you wish to in¬ 
vest. We will then submit a list to you for your approval 
or book an order. 
We feel sure after the many years we have grown the 
Peony that we can guarantee complete satisfaction.
