PRESIDENT COOLIDGE (A. m. Brand) 
Too new to be rated. Pink. Large, beautiful flowers; a rather unL 
form lavender'pink. Irregular petals in unique irregular formation. 
The prominent guards stand out from the rest of the flower; very 
attractive from a distance. The entire flower is climaxed by a strik' 
ing rosebud effect. Blooms carried well above the foliage on strong 
stems. A late Peony, remarkable both as a show flower and land' 
scape variety. A Brand Division ^3.00

strong stems, good foliage. Awarded Certificate of Honorable 
Mention at London, Ontario, Show. A Brand Division ^1.50 
8.7 REINE HORTENSE (Calot)

A very large midseason pale flesh-pink, tinted with rose-pink, lighter 
at the edges and shading to creamy yellow at the base of the petals;

other one of Mr. Shaylor's fine Peonies. A Brand Division ^2.00 
9.0 SARAH BERNHARDT (Lemoine) 
Another variety that prevails in the show room. So well known, 
it seems unnecessary to say that it should be in every garden. Semi- 
rose type. Late midseason. Color, apple-blossom-pink with each 
petal silver tipped. Agreeable fragrance. A Brand Division $1.00 
8.7 SILVIA SAUNDERS (Saunders) 
A beautiful little flower remindful of a semi-double wild prairie 
rose. Semi-double blooms open out flat, slightly cupped. Around 
The edge is a double row of wide rounded rose colored petals 
which in turn surround a central cluster of short stamens with 
delicate light green carpels, tipped bright pink. Delicately beau¬ 
tiful—a Peony masterpiece. A Brand Division $5.00

SOUVENIR DE LOUIS BIGOT (Dessert) 
Salmon-pink. Color a brilliant rose, slightly tinted carmine at the 
base, turning to a salmon-pink. Resembles Walter Faxon in color 
but stands up much better in the field. A Brand Division $1.50 
STRASSBURG (Goos & Koenemann) 
Flowers very large, loosely built, semi-rose. Petals very large, broad, 
delicate lilac-rose. This German firm has sent out many beautiful 
Peonies, all distinct, but in their entire list this is one of the best. 
Stock of this variety is very scarce. A Brand Division $1.50 
THERESE (Dessert) 
Very large; somewhat loosely built; long, narrow pointed petals. 
Plant of medium height with strong stems. Usually produces large 
typical flowers, even on 1-year plants, if they are allowed to bloom. 
Early midseason pink, fading toward the center, and illumined by 
a golden yellow glow in the depths. A .supreme flower for exhibi¬ 
tion purposes. A Brand Division $1.25 
TOURANGELLE (Dessert) 
Rose type; late; a vigorous grower, bearing large high-built flowers 
with cupped centers. Color delicate pearly white, suffused with 
shades of delicate salmon and La France rose. Has a weak stem 
but the coloring is unusual. A Brand Division $1.00 
VICTORY CHATEAU THIERRY (a. M. Brand) 
A very large flower with immense, broad, evenly arranged, rounded 
petals of great substance. A clear bright pink, gradually fading to 
a lighter pink. This variety is early, and, like Richard Carvel and 
Judge Berry, is seldom seen in the show room. The plant is of 
medium height with very strong stems that hold the large, cup- 
shaped blossoms well erect. We consider this variety one of our 
very best. When Victory begins to open, you will make many trips 
to your garden each day to watch this gorgeous flower as it unfolds 
its clear, pink, broad petals. A Brand Division $3.00 
WALTER FAXON (Riehordson) 
A remarkable flower, at its best in the show room. Cut in the bud, 
held in a dark cool room for a day or two, then brought into the 
light, it develops into a flower of wonderful coloring and exquisite 
beauty. Color the most vivid of all pinks, the only “real pink” as 
someone has said. To anyone acquainted with its color, a mere 
glance over the show room will disclose every vase of this beautiful 
flower. Flowers medium size, attractive in form. In the fields it 
does not hold up as well as Souv. de Louis Bigot, to which it is 
similar in color. Unique for show purposes or home decoration.
