9.0 HAZEL KINNEY (A. M. Brand) 
I can still remember this beautiful flower as it appeared on the plant 
the first time. The form was so superb and the color so pure; it 
impressed us at once as a flower of great promise, which it since 
has proved. A great show flower when displayed alongside the 
very best. True rose type. Color a delicate clear hydrangea-pink. 
Medium height plant; clean, light green foliage; late midseason; a 
prolific bloomer. A Brand Division $2.00 
Tourangelle 
8.8 HENRY AVERY (Brand) 
A late midseason variety. Guards and center petals a bright light 
pink. Between the guard and center petals is a very distinct collar, 
from an inch to an inch and a half wide, of creamy yellow petals. 
This gives the flower a very striking appearance. This is a hand' 
some Peony making a fine garden variety as well as a striking show 
variety. A Brand Division $1.00 
8.6 JUDGE BERRY (Brand) 
This is a fine delicate pink coming into bloom with that very early 
deep pink, Edulis Superba. Its attractive, large flat flowers are of 
excellent color and texture. Coming at the beginning of the Peony 
season, when most varieties are of small or medium size, this im' 
mense flower has a peculiar distinction. A Brand Division $1.00 
9.0 KATHARINE HAVEMEYER (Thurlow) 
Originator’s description: “Large, rose type, flesh-pink in color; 
guard petals broad and rounded, somewhat notched at the ends. 
Center petals narrow and fringed. Full, high center. Sweet fra- 
grance. Midseason to late. Honorable Mention, American Peony 
Society, London, Ontario, 1922.” A Brand Division $2.00 
8.8 KELWAY'S QUEEN ( Kelway • 
This is a distinct Peony, both in flower and plant. At one time 
the stocks of this variety were badly mixed, but when the true 
variety is once seen, there can be no mistake. It is a large, compact, 
rose type flower of uniform mauve, with center flecked crimson. 
A tall strong grower, and a very profuse bloomer. Late midseason.

9.1 LADY ALEXANDRA DUFF (Kelway) 
An immense, loosely built flower with great broad rounded petals. 
A pale blush-pink, fading to white, with yellow stamens. When 
not disbudded, the central flower is loosely double, of a rather flat' 
tened, circular form; central petals touched with carmine. A beau' 
tifully formed flower; sweet scented. Very floriferous. Very showy. 
Opening after the central flower, the side flowers come semi'double, 
saucer-shaped, showing stamens. A Brand Division $1.00 
9.0 LA FRANCE (Lemoine)

A Brand Division $2.00 
8.5 LA PERLE (Crousse) 
A beautiful soft shade of old-rose pink with a spicy fragrance. The 
bud is especially clear, making a good cut flower. A midseason 
variety. A Brand Division $1.00 
8.9 LAVERNE CHRISTMAN <a. M. Brand) 
A very large deep pink of varied shadings. The plant is tall and a 
vigorous grower. This variety received an Award of Merit at St. 
Paul, Minnesota, in the National Show held during 1923. Very 
late. Because our stock is small, we are not able to list this variety 
each year but with a nice stock again built up we can send out 
some fine roots. A Brand Division $3.00 
8.8 LILLIAN GUMM (Gumm) 
Late midseason. A new flower of outstanding qualities, good enough 
to be repeatedly singled out from hundreds of varieties in the field. 
Very large, globular in form, rose type, with great broad petals, 
and a cupped center. Color uniform apple-blossom-pink with more 
brilliant shadings at the base of the petals. A Brand Division $1.00

gea-pink interspersed with golden stamens and some splashes of

9.1 MARTHA BULLOCH (Brand) 
Very tall, very large blooms; late. One of the greatest of all Peonies. 
Bright old-rose-pink; center of lighter rose, and pink. Roselike 
fragrance. Tall, straight stems. The Northwest Peony Show is 
staged alternate years in St. Paul and Minneapolis. Outside of the 
National Show, it is the largest Peony Show in America, taken year 
after year. Here Peonies of all varieties are shown at their best by 
expert showmen. The class that brings out the best flowers is the 
class that calls for ten vases, one each of ten varieties, three blooms 
to a vase. Into this class go the ten best vases of each exhibitor. 
Martha Bulloch is almost invariably in the exhibit that wins first. 
A Brand Division $2.00 
8.9 MARIE CROUSSE (Crousse) 
A very attractive flower. Color very delicate shell-pink bordering on 
salmon; stiff, upright stems. Fragrant. Midseason to late. A splen¬ 
did variety, distinct in color from any other pink you may have. 
A most desirable sort for distant effect. Such a clear pure self 
color—it attracts the eye, even when blooming among a hundred 
different pinks. A Brand Division $1.00 
9.0 MILTON HILL (Richardson) 
A very beautiful flower of a delicate shade of salmon-pink, resem¬ 
bling Walter Faxon. Seen in the show room in first class form, this 
variety is impossible to beat in its color. It received a rating of 9.0 
with sixty-three voting. This is absolutely one of the finest of all 
Peonies. A Brand Division $1.00 
MRS. DEANE FUNK (A . M. Brand) 
Too new to be rated. Large and peculiarly beautiful in formation. 
The broad guards and half of the petals turn outward, gracefully 
downward, then up. Next is a distinct band of golden stamens as 
in Phyllis Kelway. Lighting up the entire flower, these stamens 
enclose a rosebud, cup-shaped center of large incurving petals. 
Color a Walter Faxon pink. Magnificent in the show room. One 
of the finest of all Peonies for use in decorative work such as the 
making up of large vases, etc. A Brand Division $2.00 
9.1 MRS. ROMAINE B. WARE (a. m. Brand) 
True rosebud effect in the center, the petals radiating in peculiar 
fashion to give a pleasing effect to the entire bloom. Returning 
from the National Show at Boston, I stopped with my good friend 
Harry F. Little. Mrs. Romaine B. Ware was in full bloom. Of this 
wonderful flower Mr. Little said, “I think this one of the daintiest 
of all Peonies in its perfect beauty.” Exquisitely delicate; medium 
size; rose type. Medium height plant; profuse bloomer; midseason. 
Fragrant. A Brand Division $2.00
