Gillette (Dessert 1915), large, symmetrical flowers of deep 
8.0 flesh, with salmon tints at base of petals. Golden sta¬ 
mens are visible in flowers from young plants, but when 
well established the flowers are extra fine. Fragrant. 
Midseason. 
James Kelway (Kelway 1900), exquisite white with a golden 
8.7 glow at base of petal. Sometimes semi-double. Tall, 
strong and very fragrant. Early midseason. 
Jubilee (Pleas 1908), extremely large flat flowers of ivory - 
8.9 white, petals long and narrow and arranged loosely, 
giving a feathery effect. Stems long but weak. Midsea¬ 
son. 
Karl Rosenfield (Rosenfield 1908), brilliant dark crimson; 
8.8 of good form and substance. Stems stiff. Medium 
height. One of our best of this color. 
La Perle (Crousse 1886). The true variety is a charming 
8.5 flower. Blush-white in center, growing darker toward 
the edge. Fragrant. Late. 
Madame Auguste Dessert (Dessert 1899), very beautiful 
8.6 soft pink, fading to flesh color. In the half-open flower 
a ring of golden stamens is visible. Midseason. A fine 
variety.

8.9 of soft flesh-white. Petals have a rather translucent ef¬ 
fect. Tall, strong stems. Midseason. 
Marguerite Gerard (Crouse 1892), globular blooms of flesh- 
8.4 pink fading to creamy-white, showing a ring of gold 
when fully developed. Late. 
Marie Jacquin (Verdier), pure white petals intermixed with 
8 3 golden stamens which give the flower a delicate creamy 
shade. Flowers somewhat variable, often-times semi- 
double. The outer petals are incurved giving a cupped 
water-lily effect which is charming. Stems strong. Mid¬ 
season. 
Maud L. Richardson (Hollis 1904), flesh-pink showing 
8.5 some golden-edged stamenoides. Very good as a land¬

plant but good foliage. Early.

8.8 pink, shading deeper toward the center. Stems tall and 
strong. Late. 
Valuable bargains in peonies when sold to color.
