Peonies 
MOVILLA GARDENS 
Double Herbaceous Peonies, continued 
7 7 DAYBREAK. (Hollis 1909.) Large, flat semi-double flower. 
(3) Uniform violet-rose. Erect. Medium height. Very strong 
grower. Rare. Early. 
7.0 DEEMSTER. (Kelway 1909.) Large, semi-double flower. Very 
(2) deep chocolate-maroon. Distinct and attractive. Very rare. 
7.7 DORCHESTER. (Richardson 1870.) Large, compact flower, 
(48) rose type. Pale hydrangea-pink. Rather dwarf. Fragrant. 
Upright, free bloomer. Late. 
7.8 DUC DE WELLINGTON. (Calot 1859.) Large flower of good 
(47) form and substance. White guards with sulphur center. Very 
fragrant. Good cut-flower variety. Strong grower and free 
bloomer. Late. 
8.1 DUCHESSE DE NEMOURS. (Calot 1856.) Sulphur-white, 
(66) cup-shaped flower of medium size, opening quite flat. Strong 
grower. Free bloomer. Fragrant. Early. 
7.3 DUKE OF CLARENCE. (Kelway.) Very large, cream-white, 
(5) slightly flushed pink flower. Fragrant. Tall; erect. Although 
this variety rates rather low we continue to list it because with 
us it is beautiful and satisfactory. We believe it will rate much 
higher when better known. Very scarce. Midseason. 
7.4 DUKE OF DEVONSHIRE. (Kelway 1896.) Extra-large, flat, 
(12) deep rose-colored flowers. Very fragrant. Tall, strong grower. 
Late. 
7.6 EDULIS SUPERBA. (Lemon 1824.) Large, bright mauve-pink 
(66) flower of rose type. Very fragrant. Strong grower and free 
bloomer. Largely grown for commercial cut-flowers. Very early. 
7.8 E. G. HILL. (Lemoine 1906.) Very large light Tyrian rose. 
(28) Dwarf, compact grower. Very showy. Free bloomer, even from 
very young plants. Fragrant. This Peony lacks the violet 
shade seen in many Peonies and this adds greatly to its attrac¬ 
tiveness. In many gardens this is not a strong grower and is 
inclined to root disease. Early midseason. 
9.2 ELIZABETH BARRETT BROWNING. (Brand 1907.) Fine, 
(29) pure white, of most attractive form and quality. Very soft 
shell-pink when first opening. Outer petals and center marked 
crimson. Extremely fragrant. Very large. Stems are long and 
weak. Good bloomer. Very late.

(8) lavender-flesh color. Fragrant. Strong grower. Midseason. 
8.7 ELWOOD PLEAS. (Pleas 1900.) Very large, flat, compact 
(36) flower of rose type. Color a light rose, delicately shading to 
lilac-white. Very fragrant. Erect and compact. A very strong 
grower and free bloomer. One of the best of the Pleas introduc¬ 
tions. Late.

(37) flower of rose type. Color creamy white with guards splashed 
crimson. Very fragrant.

8.0 ETTA. (Terry.) Very large, flat flower of rose type. Deep 
(32) shell-pink. Stems are stiff and plant rather dwarf. Fragrant. 
One of Terry’s best. Very late. 
8.3 EUGENE BIGOT. (Dessert 1894.) Large flowers of semi-rose 
(29) type. Brilliant color. Very deep Tyrian rose with silver- 
tipped petals. Free bloomer. Fine. Late midseason.
