Peace. This is one of the famous Groff hybrids, 
and I believe it is one of the grandest varieties 
ever introduced. It is the nearest approach 
to a clear, pure white, and on this account was 
given the name “Peace.” The flowers are 
unusually large, and borne on a strong, upright 
spike; they are almost pure white, with a 
delicate lilac feathering on the inferior petals. 
For cutting, this variety is unsurpassed, as the 
flowers keep well, and if kept in water, the 
buds will open the entire length of the spike.

cts. per doz., $5 per 100.
