Monj. Jules Elie 
DA LORRAINE (Lemoine). 8.6. Pink Midseason. A large 
flower, nicely rounded, with great broad petals beauti¬ 
fully arranged. Color a soft even shade of creamy 
pink. In our opinion, this flower is not fully appreci¬ 
ated, for it is one of the choicest of all Peonies and 
should rate well above 9.0. From our first observa¬ 
tion of the flower, this has been our constant impres¬ 
sion. When shown together with magnificent blooms 
of Le Cygne, Kelway’s Glorious. Therese and Mme. 
Jules Dessert, we have seen blooms of La Lorraine 
which showed up equally beautiful; and we think it 
is just as good a flower as any of them.

Primevere and Fanny Crosby, are the three finest yel¬ 
low Peonies. The flower is round, of rose type. Guard 
petals creamv 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 develop¬ 
ed inside away from the sun to preserve Its color.

type, perfect in form. Creamy white with no tracings

ly fragrant. Le Cygne is the highest rated Peony and 
fully deserves Its rating. Early midseason.

CLEARANCE 
OFFER 
Of Peonies in Storage 
In Strong 3- to 5-Eye 
Divisions 
When we began to list the 
Peonies we had to offer for 
spring, we found we had many 
excellent varieties in small 
quantities. We had rather sac¬ 
rifice these in price, than take 
up valuable space in our cata¬ 
log to list them. 
Then each fall when we dig 
our Peonies, we cannot estimate just how many of 
each variety we are going to sell. Many of the 
varieties listed and described in our catalog will 
go into this CLEARANCE OFFER. From those not 
listed we recall such fine varieties as Opal, Felix 
Crousse, Grandiflora, La Perle, etc. 
If you wish good varieties for your garden, let 
us select for you.
