PEONIES OF ENGLISH ORIGIN 
Sent out by Kelway & Son 
It has been almost impossible to secure these varieties true to name. Those offered in this list are va¬ 
rieties which have been thoroughly tested and found to be not only distinct from the French varieties 
but of especial merit. Nearly all have been described and are listed in the American Peony Society’s 
bulletins. To these have been added some of their most recent introductions that have been grown and 
tested here. 
Included in this list are some of the most beautiful Peonies grown, especially such varieties as Baroness 
Schroeder, Duke of Devonshire, James Kelway, Kehvay’s Queen, Miss Salway, Splendida, Venus and 
others.
