and is a splendid garden and landscape flower. It 
was greatly admired this year in my garden.

The beautiful buds open first as a faint blush pink 
but soon become pure white. The flowers are large 
with broad guard petals and the central petals form 
a cup-shaped center. Long stems. Pleasing fra¬ 
grance.

EDITH M. SNOOK (Snook) 
My two favorite peony authorities are Harry F. 
Little of Camillus, New York, and George W. Peyton 
of Rapidan, Virginia. Mr. Peyton is so very en¬ 
thusiastic about this new peony, Edith M. Snook, 
that he has written to Judge Snook who originated 
the variety, to Roy Burke of Paulding, Ohio, from 
whom he received a division of it, and to me, telling 
each of us the wonderful performance of Edith M. 
Snook in his Virginia garden. As I have more faith 
in his judgment on a good peony than I have even 
in my own, I am here telling you Mr. Peyton’s 
report on it. 
‘‘My plant of the variety Edith M. Snook sent up 
four 42 inch stems and each of them produced a 
perfect milk-white flower with an entirely new form 
which I have found in no other peony. The guard 
petals are long and grow horizontally from the 
stems, making a perfectly flat base for the mass 
of central petals which form a compact half sphere 
above them. The central petals are all of the rather 
narrow twisted form found in the collars of typical 
crown type peonies. These central petals make so 
compact a bloom that no carpels are visible, but 
there is a glint of green from the base of the petals 
and a tint of yellow from some invisible stamens.” 
I am sure my readers will be able to visualize this 
fine new form peony from Mr. Peyton’s description.

EDULIS SUPERBA (Lemon) 
This genuine pink peony and its sister variety, Um- 
bellata Rosea (lighter color), are the two most re¬ 
liable peonies in my garden for bringing profitable 
returns from their blooms. On May 30th they are 
usually in their prime and owing to the great de¬ 
mand for peonies on that particular date a price of 
50c per dozen retail and 30c per dozen wholesale are 
much easier to procure than are lower prices on 
much higher rated peonies blooming later in the sea¬ 
son. Suburban dwellers and farmers living on main 
highways near cities of even moderate size can 
usually dispose of all their blooms at these profit-
